Rara carta del mondo pubblicata separatamente da Luigi Rosaccio. La carta deriva dal planisfero murale di suo padre, Giuseppe Rosaccio (1597, Bifolco-Ronca n. 31). Rodney Shirley nota che “This curiously elaborate world map is to be found in a speculative world geography by Giuseppe Rosaccio... The right-hand hemisphere is surrounded by bands denoting the climates; the left-hand one by lively windheads and celestial constellations. In the centre cusp is a dyspeptic portrait of the young Duke Cosimo II de Medici, and in the spandels are circular representations of the four elements. The lower part of the engraving consists of a neatly engraved Ptolemaic map of the world and a set of spherical diagrams showing the zones, meridians, and geographical features”. La mappa è molto rara; questo è un esempio del secondo stato, con una barba aggiunta al ritratto di Cosimo de Medici. Priva di datazione, la carta risulta stampata a Firenze, dove la famiglia Rosaccio si era trasferita dopo il periodo veneziano, il 28 novembre 1606, ottenendo il privilegio della stampa per le proprie opere - vedi Casali, Il 'Teatro "del mondo. GR (ca 1530-1620) tra Firenze e Bologna, in L'Europa divisa e i nuovi mondi. Per Adriano Prosperi, II, a cura di M. Donattini - G. Marcocci - S. Pastore, Pisa 2011, p. 56. Aloisio, Aluigio, Alovigi o probabilmente Luigi Rosaccio, figlio del cosmografo Giuseppe Rosaccio, si formò a Firenze, forse con Antonio Tempesta, alla corte dei Medici. Fin dai primi anni Novanta, Giuseppe Rosaccio si stabilì a Firenze, dove il 13 luglio 1594 entrò nella compagnia dell'"Arte dei medici e speziali" (Casali, 2011, p. 56 e n. 15 p. 62) come venditore di libri, ponendosi al servizio e sotto la protezione del Granduca dal suo 'banco' aperto sulla prestigiosa Piazza del Palazzo e dedicando alcune delle sue opere più significative a Ferdinando, Cosimo II e alla granduchessa Cristina. Sempre nella città dei Medici, il 28 novembre 1606 ottenne il privilegio di stampare per le proprie opere (Casali, 2011, pp. 56 s.). Luigi Rosaccio si cimentò nell'arte incisoria, traducendo in stampa le numerose opere del padre. Nel 1610 realizzò il ciclo di illustrazioni incluse nella descrizione delle "Esequie d'Arrigo Quarto cristianissimo re di francia e di Navarra celebrate in Firenze dal Serenissimo DON COSIMO II Gran Duca di Toscana". Descritto da Giuliano Giraldi pubblicato a Firenze da Bartolomeo Sermartelli, importante come testimonianza visiva del complesso delle decorazioni più che per le qualità stilistiche e tecniche, non particolarmente brillanti. Sempre al periodo fiorentino sono legate le tre splendide carte geografiche raffiguranti l'Italia, una grande carta che precede l'Italia Nova di Giovanni Antonio Magini, la Toscana (la cosiddetta "Carta del Cavallo"), e il Piemonte. Bibliografia Shirley, The Mapping of The World, #268. Rare separately published map of the World by Luigi Rosaccio, after the of the largest World Map of his father Giuseppe Rosaccio (1597, Bifolco-Ronca n. 31). Rodney Shirley notes: “This curiously elaborate world map is to be found in a speculative world geography by Giuseppe Rosaccio... The right-hand hemisphere is surrounded by bands denoting the climates; the left-hand one by lively windheads and celestial constellations. In the centre cusp is a dyspeptic portrait of the young Duke Cosimo II de Medici, and in the spandels are circular representations of the four elements. The lower part of the engraving consists of a neatly engraved Ptolemaic map of the world and a set of spherical diagrams showing the zones, meridians, and geographical features” The map was engraved by Giuseppe’s relative Alovisio Rosaccio and is very scarce. This is an example of the second state, with a beard added to the portrait of de Medici. Without the data, the map is printed in Florence, where the Rosaccio family was transferred after the Venetian period, on 28 November 1606, obtaining the privilege of printing for their works - see Casali, Il 'Teatro "del mondo. GR (ca 1530-1620) tra Firenze e Bologna, in L’Europa divisa e i nuovi mondi. Per Adriano Prosperi, II, a cura di M. Donattini - G. Marcocci - S. Pastore, Pisa 2011, p. 56. Aloisio, Aluigio, Alovigi or probably Luigi Rosaccio, son of the cosmographer Giuseppe Rosaccio, was trained in Florence, perhaps with Antonio Tempesta, at the Medici court. Since the early nineties, Giuseppe Rosaccio settled in Florence, where on 13 July 1594 joined the company of “Arte dei medici e speziali (Art of doctors and apothecaries)” (Casali, 2011, p. 56 and n. 15 p. 62) as a seller of books, placing himself at the service and under the protection of the Grand Duke from his 'bench' opened on the prestigious Piazza del Palazzo and dedicating some of his most significant works to Ferdinando, Cosimo II and the Grand Duchess Cristina.. Still in the city of the Medici, on 28 November 1606 he obtained the privilege of printing for his own works (Casali, 2011, pp. 56 s.). Luigi Rosaccio tried his hand at engraving art, translating his father's numerous works into a print. In 1610 he made the cycle of illustrations included in the description of the “Esequie d’Arrigo Quarto cristianissimo re di francia e di Navarra celebrate in Firenze dal Serenissimo DON COSIMO II Gran Duca di Toscana”. Described by Giuliano Giraldi published in Florence by Bartolomeo Sermartelli, important as visual testimony of the complex of the decorations rather than for the stylistic and technical qualities, not particularly brilliant. Always in the Florentine period are related to the three wonderful geographic maps depicting Italy, a great map preceding the Italia Nova of Giovanni Antonio Magini, Tuscany (the so-called “Carta del Cavallo”), and Piedmont.

7 colour printed maps. Scale 1:50,000 and 1:1,000,000. In English and Arabic. Folded. First edition. A set of exceedingly rare UAE topographic maps, compiled from 1:30,000 scale aerial photography taken during 1986 and 1987, presumably based on UK versions. The maps show international boundaries, tracks and paths, bridges, historical landmarks, schools, tree and date plantations, mangroves, oil and gas injection wells, mosques and cemeteries, emergency telephones, water pipelines and tanks, cliffs and rocky areas, as well as other details encountered in the vast desert. Occasionally the average relative height of the dunes is given, reaching up to 45 metres at certain points. - The 6 maps of the 1:50,000 series are sheets number NF-40-01-14, NF-40-01-22, NF-40-01-34, and NF-40-02-11, as well as NG-40-13-54, and NG-40-13-63. The maps of this series "were used extensively for UTM [Universal Transverse Mercator projection coordinate system] Zone 39 rectification. These maps have a local UAE national grid which is equivalent to the UTM grid if a bias of 2,150,000 m in the y-dimension and 150,000 m in the x-dimension are added" (Jensen). The single map of the 1:100,000 series, dating from 1992, is sheet number NG-40-136. - Some pencil marks and circles. The 1:50,000 scaled maps have a stamped six-digit number and a round stamp in Arabic type on the reverse; the 1:100,000 scaled map has a square stamp in Arabic type on the reverse. A few small tears and creases; occasional adhesive tape; paper variously pierced. No copies traceable in libraries internationally.
