Pianta a proiezione mista, orientata con il nord a sinistra, 1706 circa. Basata sula pianta di Roma di Lievin Cruyl del 1665 e successiva ristampa del 1696. Per Scaccia Scarafoni prima e Marigliani poi “fu pubblicata ad Amsterdam nel 1706 senza alcun aggiornamento e raffigura pertanto Roma come si presentava alla fine del ‘600. In alto a sinistra è riportata la piantina dei dintorni di Roma” (cfr. Marigliani p. 252). La pianta è inclusa nell'Atlas Historique, pubblicato ad Amsterdam tra il 1705 e il 1720. L'atlante, in 7 volumi, è innovativo per la sua epoca perché combina le mappe geografiche con incisioni e informazioni di carattere geografico, storico, etnografico e araldico. Acquaforte, in ottimo stato di conservazione. Henri Abraham Chatelain (1684 - 1743) era un pastore ugonotto di origini parigine. È meglio conosciuto come cartografo olandese e più specificamente per il suo contributo cartografico nell’Atlas Historique in sette volumi, pubblicato ad Amsterdam tra il 1705 e il 1720. Innovativo per il suo tempo, l'Atlas Historique combinava incisioni e opere d'arte con studi di geografia, storia, etnologia, araldica e cosmografia. Alcuni studiosi suggeriscono che l'Atlas Historique non fu compilato esclusivamente da Henri Chatelain, come si crede comunemente, ma piuttosto fu un'impresa familiare che coinvolse Henri, suo padre Zacharie e suo fratello, sempre Zacharie. Bibliografia Scaccia Scarafoni (1939): p. 113, n. 213; Marigliani (2007): p. 252, n. 158. Mixed projection map of Rome, oriented with north to the left, circa 1706. Based on the map of Rome by Lievin Cruyl (1665) and subsequent reprint of 1696. For Scaccia Scarafoni first and then Marigliani was published in Amsterdam in 1706 without any update and therefore represents Rome as it was at the end of '600. At the top left is the map of the surroundings of Rome (see Marigliani p. 252). The map is included in the Atlas Historique, published in Amsterdam between 1705 and 1720. Henri Abraham Chatelain (1684 - 1743) was a Huguenot pastor of Parisian origins. He is best known as a Dutch cartographer and more specifically for his cartographic contribution in the seminal seven volume Atlas Historique, published in Amsterdam between 1705 and 1720. Innovative for its time, the Atlas Historique combined fine engraving and artwork with scholarly studies of geography, history, ethnology, heraldry, and cosmography. Some scholarship suggests that the Atlas Historique was not exclusively compiled by Henri Chatelain, as is commonly believed, but rather was a family enterprise involving Henri, his father Zacharie and his brother, also Zacharie. Etching, in excellent condition. Literature Scaccia Scarafoni (1939): p. 113, n. 213; Marigliani (2007): p. 252, n. 158.

A travers cette brochure, Poincaré traite des trois modes de représentation (isoombres, suivies et horaires) des phénomènes météorologiques, modes employés avec beaucoup de réticence à l'époque. Il explique notamment les légendes des deux cartes qu'il a réalisées pour représenter les pluies tombées sur la Meuse et le bassin de la Seine durant l'hiver 1868-1869. En 1871, Poincaré présente à la Commission de l'Association Scientifique de France une étude en 7 parties intitulée "études sur la distribution et la marche des pluies dans la région". Un résumé sera publié peu après dans le n° 211 de la revue hebdomadaire de l'institution. Antoine Poincaré, polytechnicien et ingénieur en chef à Bar-le-Duc fut l'oncle du mathématicien et physicien Henri Poincaré et le père de Raymond Poincaré, président de la France de 1913 à 1920. Malgré la présence minime de rousseurs et de taches sur les couvertures, bel exemplaire
