Very Good Turkish Original wrappers. Light stains on the covers. Overall a very good copy. Roy. 8vo. (23 x 16 cm). In Turkish. 4 volumes set: (631 p.; 299 p.; 555 p.), with a folded huge map in the end-pocket of the fourth and the last volume. Rare first Turkish Edition of Radloff's 'Aus Sibirien' [i.e. From Siberia], offering the first precise, systematic treatment of Central Asiatic ethnography and significant scientific study of the Turkic peoples. Radlov engaged in Oriental studies at the University of Berlin during the 1850s, and after completing his education he taught in a secondary school at Barnaul in southwestern Siberia. During that period he had close contact with the Turkic people of the Sayan and Altai mountains and began his ethnographic, textual, and linguistic studies. Following his return to St. Petersburg, Radlov published a general ethnography of northern and Central Asia, Aus Sibirien (1884), which advanced a three-stage theory of cultural evolution for the region-hunting to pastoral to agricultural-with shamanism as the main religion. Radloff was a Russian - German scholar and orientalist, he is also known by his Russian name Vasilij Vasilievich Radlov. From 1850-70, Radloff traveled to Siberia, Altai, and Turkestan where he conducted studies in local languages, anthropology, and archaeology. Organizing the Russian Committee for the Study of Central and East Asia, Radoff was very active in raising the level of Central Asian and Turkic studies in Russia. In 1918, he organized a team to travel to Turfan. He became a member of the Russian Academy of Sciences in 1884. Only two complete sets in OCLC: 976749562. Not in the US libraries.

1849ABC_50166Macao 1849. Painting 350 x 150 cm. Watercolour on paper on contemporary wooden roll. A massive view of Macao from above painted in watercolours sometime in the second half of the nineteenth century during the era in which much of the trade in the area was beginning to shift from the old Portuguese colony to Hong Kong. The peninsula clearly labelled with the Mandarin toponym Àomén "Bay Gate" is very much the focus of the piece: it is depicted effectively as an island with the Chinese mainland across the isthmus abstracted away into just one of many rocks in the surrounding ocean.Macao is shown as mountainous and settled mainly on the western and southern shores with groups of white blue and yellow buildings. Many are labelled in Chinese or have yellow banners with Chinese writing on them flying above. Similarly the rocks in the surrounding waters are dotted with settlements and fortresses labelled in the same way.The seventeenth-century church of St Paul's stands in ruins at the heart of the settlement indicating that this piece was painted after 1835 when the building was gutted by a fire reducing it to its impressive frontage which remains one of the emblems of Macao to this day. Furthermore the Portas do Cerco Border Gate built in 1849 clearly appears in the northern wall across the isthmus. However none of the ships depicted are motorised suggesting that this view was still painted before the founding of the Hongkong Canton & Macao Steamboat company when steamships would have become a more common sight.The centring of Macao in what looks like a vast ocean littered with menacing rocks gives this painting an almost mythological aspect but the style is clear and realistic with the landmarks of the colonial settlement clearly depicted.Macao's strategic position on a peninsula connected to the mainland only by a narrow isthmus made it an attractive site for controlling trade in the Pearl River delta and in the region more broadly. Although initially founded as a commercial port by the Chinese in 1535 by 1557 the Portuguese had successfully negotiated a long-term lease of the island from the Ming dynasty and begun to settle there. Macao thus became the first enduring European colonial settlement in China and moreover was destined to become the last one as well being handed back to China in 1999.A beautiful monument to Macao's history in the days of its swansong as a Portuguese trading colony.Provenance: from an Italian private collection. The paper is brittle fragments have come away at the end some of these are gathered in a bag. A few larger tears down the painting however with minimal loss to contents. The painting is still clear and vivid. unknown
