Domenico Zenoi f.Orientazione con l’est in alto (ORIENS). Sulla tavola sono presenti alcune iscrizioni che identificano i diversi schieramenti e descrivono la battaglia. Acquaforte e bulino, dimensioni mm 405x290.Pianta prospettica che mostra la fortezza di Tokay, durante la conquista imperiale del 1565. L’occupazione di Tokaj è stato il primo evento a essere raffigurato in un largo numero di incisioni pubblicate a Vienna, Parigi e Venezia, subito dopo il suo accadimento. Tra queste incisioni, l’opera di Zenoi è di particolare interesse perché rappresenta la prima veduta di una fortezza ungherese incisa su rame.Nel 1565 l’imperatore Massimiliano, approfittando del fatto che i Turchi erano occupati nel Mediterraneo, s’impadronì sia di Tokaj che Szerencs, appartenenti alla Transilvania del principe Giovanni Sigismondo Zápolya, stato vassallo dei Turchi, creato dal sultano Solimano il Magnifico intorno al 1550. Il successo dell’operazione fu agevolato da Lazarus Freiherr von Schwendi, uno dei migliori comandanti e strateghi militari del tempo, che fu impegnato nelle guerre ungheresi dal 1565 al 1568. La riconquista di Tokaj, comequella di Szatmár, era di particolare importanza, poiché dal 1560 in avanti, l’Alta Ungheria ebbe due funzioni: serviva da bastione difensivo non solo contro gli Ottomani ma anche contro lo stato vassallo dei Turchi, ovvero il Principato di Transilvania. La fortificazione di Tokaj, su base pentagonale bastionata agli angoli, era stata progettata da Francesco da Pozzo nel 1556. Attraverso la cooperazione tra il Consiglio di Guerra di Corte e i possidenti ungheresi, entro il sesto decennio del XVI secolo fu istituito un nuovo sistema di difesa dei confini in Ungheria e in Croazia. Elemento portante del sistema era la linea di fortezze di frontiera che si estendeva dal mar Adriatico fino alla Transilvania, realizzata individuando una serie di zone di difesa che, anche per caratteristiche del territorio, oltre che per affinità etniche e politiche, potessero formare una rete difensiva omogenea. I vecchi castelli furono rinforzati con moderne fortezze progettate perlopiù da architetti militari italiani. Questa catena di 100-120 fortezze, di diverse dimensioni, fu divisa in sei Generalati di confine (Grenzgeneralat). Ciascun generalato si trovava sotto il comando di un capitano generale di frontiera: il generalato di Croazia e Adriatico; Slavonia e dei Vendi; di Canisia, il confine di Györ che proteggeva direttamente Vienna; il confine delle città minerarie, e infine quello dell’Alta Ungheria. Oltre ai sei confini, un ruolo di grande importanza spettava alla fortezza di Komáron.BibliografiaBifolco-Ronca, Cartografia e Topografia Italiana del XVI secolo, Catalogo ragionato delle opera a stampa (2018), tav. 552 I/IV; Destombes (1970): n. 174; De Vries (1981): n. 30; Hatfield House (1992): n. 93; Meurer (2002): n. 179; Ruge (1904-16): IV, n. 87.84; Tavernari (2014): n. 109; Szalai (2001): p. 131, tav. 220, nn. 1565/1a-c; Szalai-Matković (2012), p. 4; Szalai-Szantai (2006): n. 1565/1 a-c, tav. 211; Tooley (1939): n. 550.

FIRST STATE OF FOUR, before the Camocio’s address.Etching and engraving, a fine impression, printed on contemporary laid paper, with margins, very good condition. Very rare.Perspective map showing the fortress of Tokay, during the imperial conquest of 1565. The occupation of Tokaj was the firstevent to be depicted in a large number of engravings published in Vienna, Paris and Venice, immediately after its occurrence. Between these etchings, the work of Zenoi is of particular interest because it represents the first view of a Hungarian fortress engraved on copper. In 1565 Emperor Maximilian, taking advantage of the fact that the Turks were occupied in the Mediterranean, took possession of both Tokajthat Szerencs, belonging to the Transylvania of Prince John Sigismund Zápolya, vassal state of the Turks, created by the sultanSuleiman the Magnificent around 1550. The success of the operation was facilitated by Lazarus Freiherr von Schwendi, one of the bestcommanders and military strategists of the time, who were engaged in the Hungarian wars from 1565 to 1568. The reconquest of Tokaj, asthat of Szatmár, was of particular importance, since from 1560 onwards, Upper Hungary had two functions: it served as a bastion defensive not only against the Ottomans but also against the vassal state of the Turks, or the Principality of Transylvania. The fortificationof Tokaj, on a pentagonal base bastioned at the corners, was designed by Francesco da Pozzo in 1556. Through cooperation between the Court War Council and the Hungarian landowners, a new system was established within the sixth decade of the sixteenth century defense of borders in Hungary and Croatia. Carrier of the system was the line of frontier fortresses that extended from the sea Adriatic up to Transylvania, created by identifying a series of defense zones which, also due to the characteristics of the territory, as well as for ethnic and political affinities, they could form a homogeneous defensive network. The old castles were reinforced with modern fortresses designed mostly by Italian military architects. This chain of 100-120 fortresses, of different sizes, was divided into six Generalates of border (Grenzgeneralat). Each generalate was under the command of a general border captain: the generalate of Croatia and the Adriatic; Slavonia and the Sell; of Canisia, the Györ border that directly protected Vienna; the border of the mining towns, finally that of Upper Hungary. Beyond the six borders, a role of great importance lay with the fortress of Komáron.BibliografiaBifolco-Ronca, Cartografia e Topografia Italiana del XVI secolo, Catalogo ragionato delle opera a stampa (2018), tav. 552 I/IV; Destombes (1970): n. 174; De Vries (1981): n. 30; Hatfield House (1992): n. 93; Meurer (2002): n. 179; Ruge (1904-16): IV, n. 87.84; Tavernari (2014): n. 109; Szalai (2001): p. 131, tav. 220, nn. 1565/1a-c; Szalai-Matković (2012), p. 4; Szalai-Szantai (2006): n. 1565/1 a-c, tav. 211; Tooley (1939): n. 550.

In alto al centro, con caratteri grandi, si legge: THIONVILLE. In basso a sinistra, in un cartiglio di forma rettangolare: Vera Thiomvillae effigies sum, reddita docti Artificis manibus, quam modo Galli tenes, Dum tamen expugnor, cecidit fortissimus ille Stroza Italum Petrus gloria summa ducum. Anno domini. M.D.LVIII Die 22 Iunij. Sulla destra del cartiglio troviamo la firma: Nicolaus Beatrizet Lotaringus incidit: et formis. Orientazione nei quattro lati al centro con il nome dei punti cardinali: SEPTENTRIO, MERIDIES, ORIENS, OCCIDENS, il nord è in alto. Sono invertiti l’est e l’ovest. Pianta prospettica che raffigura la città durante la conquista del duca di Guisa. Possiamo dedurre dalla firma in lastra Nicolaus Beatrizet Lotaringus incidit: et formis, che venga incisa e pubblicata dall’artista lorenese. L’opera sembra essere il prototipo delle stampe dedicate all’avvenimento. L’assedio di Thionville si svolse dal 17 aprile al 23 giugno 1558. Si concluse con la vittoria dell’esercito francese comandato da Francesco di Guisa sull’esercito spagnolo. Il 17 aprile, le prime truppe del signore di Vieilleville arrivano sotto le mura di Thionville per prevenire l’arrivo delle razioni. Il 28 maggio arrivarono anche le truppe del duca di Guisa e Pietro Strozzi, nominato Maresciallo di Francia. Gli spagnoli tentarono di salvare le loro truppe intrappolate a Thionville, ma dopo due fallimenti, abbandonarono il presidio stesso. Il 21 giugno - come riportato nel cartiglio - il maresciallo Strozzi morì in seguito ad una ferita. Il 23 giugno, le truppe francesi presero possesso della città, ma il duca si oppone allo smantellamento delle fortificazioni. La città divenne francese, ma era completamente vuota perché a nessun residente fu permesso di rimanere. L’occupazione di Thionville dei francesi fu breve. Il 2 aprile 1559, Enrico II firma il trattato di Cateau-Cambrésis: Spagna e Francia si restituivano le conquiste fatte l’una a danno dell’altra negli ultimi otto anni, ma la Francia mantenne però Metz, Toul e Verdun. La prima tiratura è quella più diffusa nelle raccolte cinquecentesche. Attraverso un percorso che non siamo riusciti a ricostruire - come analoghe opere del Beatrizet, infatti, l’opera non è elencata nel catalogo Lafreri - la lastra fu acquistata da Giovanni Orlandi che ne realizzò una ristampa (1602) e quindi ceduta al fiammingo van Schoel (1614) autore dell’ultima edizione nota. Bulino, impresso su carta vergata coeva, con margini, in eccellente stato di conservazione. Esemplare del secondo stato di quattro, con l’indirizzo di Giovanni Orlandi e la data 1602.

In the lower left corner, in a cartouche of rectangular shape: Vera Thiomvillae effigies sum, reddita docti Artificis manibus, quam modo Galli tenes, Dum tamen expugnor, cecidit fortissimus ille Stroza Italum Petrus gloria summa ducum. Anno domini. M.D.LVIII Die 22 Iunij. On the right of the cartouche we find the signature: Nicolaus Beatrizet Lotaringus incidit: et formis. Orientation in the four sides in the center with the name of the cardinal points: SEPTENTRIO, MERIDIES, ORIENS, OCCIDENS, the north is at the top. East and west are reversed. Perspective plan that represents the city during the conquest of the Duke of Guise. We can deduct from the signature on the plate Nicolaus Beatrizet Lotaringus incidit: et formis, which is engraved and published by the artist Lorraine. The work seems to be the prototype of the prints dedicated to the event. The siege of Thionville took place from April 17 to June 23, 1558. It ended with the victory of the French army commanded by Francis of Guise over the Spanish army. On April 17, the first troops of the Lord of Vieilleville arrived under the walls of Thionville to prevent the arrival of rations. On May 28, the troops of the Duke of Guise and Pietro Strozzi, appointed Marshal of France, also arrived. The Spanish tried to save their troops trapped in Thionville, but after two failures, they abandoned the garrison itself. On June 21 - as reported in the cartouche - Marshal Strozzi died following a wound. The 23 June, French troops took possession of the city, but the duke opposed to the dismantling of the fortifications. The city became French, but it was completely empty because no residents were allowed to stay. The occupation of Thionville by the French was brief. On April 2, 1559, Henry II signed the Treaty of Cateau-Cambrésis: Spain and France returned to each other the conquests made to the detriment of the other in the last eight years, but France kept Metz, Toul and Verdun. The first issue is the most common in sixteenth-century collections. Through a path that we have not been able to reconstruct - as similar works of Beatrizet, in fact, the work is not listed in the catalog Lafreri - the plate was purchased by Giovanni Orlandi who made a reprint (1602) and then sold to the Flemish Hendrick van Schoel (1614) author of the last known edition. Engraving, impressed on contemporary laid paper, with margins, in excellent condition. Exemple of the second state of four, with the address of Giovanni Orlandi and the date 1602.

"The collection of printed atlases and associated books assembled by the late Lord Wardington. is, in my view, the finest collection in private hands. In Sotheby's two-part sale over 650 individual items have been catalogued spanning the years from 1472 to the late twentieth century. There are some interesting incunabula containing maps, an example of the first atlas to be printed - the 1477 Bologna atlas by Claudius Ptolemaeus - with some maps as proof sheets, and a further two dozen Ptolemaic atlases up to the early eighteenth century. There follows a very wide range of atlases - Dutch, French, German, English, and others, including a strong array of holdings from the twentieth century; indeed with fresh acquisitions up to a year or so ago. It is unlikely that an offering such as this to the open market will be repeated!"?Introduction.
