‎Hispaniae Novae Siva Magnae Recens et Vera Descriptio 1595.‎

‎Antwerp: 1595. Single sheet 14 x 18 inches sheet; 23 x 27 inches framed. Full margins showing the platemark uncolored cooperplate engraving. A map of "New Spain" of exquisite beauty and of immense importance when viewed from a geographical and a historical stand point. In the sixteenth century Mexico as well as Central and South America were enormously important discoveries for Spain and a source of her great wealth for centuries to come due to the regions vast deposits of gold and silver. In my opinion any map displaying Mexico during this golden period of Spanish discovery and expansion is one to be treasured. This copper plate Ortelius map has two very strong and bold mannerist cartouches that fill the top right hand corner of the map and the bottom left hand corner respectively. Sea galleons can be seen sailing the Pacific Ocean. This extraordinary map gives a tremendous amount of physical detail be it place names extensive rivers lakes and mountains regions etc. On the reverse of the map oxidization has taken place as is normal with originally colored maps of great age whereby the green colored pigment gradually turns a more brown color over time. The text is Latin. Abraham Ortelius produced in 1570 an 'Atlas of the Whole World'. This atlas quickly became an immediate 'best seller'. It was so good and so popular that numerous editions were produced both prior to and after his death 1598 until 1612. This monumental work was published in many European languages and is believed to have run to an amazing 42 editions. For more information on this map or a warm welcome to see other books and maps of our collection at 72nd Street NYC please contact Natalie Zadrozna. . Antwerp: 1595. unknown‎

‎Tartariae sive magni chami regni typus.‎

‎Antwerp: Anthonis Coppens van Diest 1573 Single sheet 16 4/8 x 21 2/8 inches full margins showing the platemark. Latin text on verso. Fine engraved map of Russia Tartary and Japan the title and legend within fine mannerist strapwork cartouches the ocean decorated with galleons and a flying fish with fine hand-colour in full. Each succeeding decade following the first New World discoveries created its own revolution of knowledge but a watershed in the growth and illustration of geographical information was the atlas published in 1570 by Abraham Ortelius a businessman native to Antwerp. The Theatrum Orbis Terrarum was the first atlas in the modern sense of the word as Ortelius compiled the best existing maps re-engraved them on a standardized format and included them with text in one volume. This was a landmark innovation and the Theatrum was arguably the first printed production to have a major impact on the world perspective of contemporary Europeans. Despite their relationship as competitors Ortelius and his fellow cartographer Gerard Mercator were close friends and together they represented the major proponents of the most celebrated period in the history of early-modern mapmaking. Ortelius's maps are rightly considered among the most beautiful ever produced and the seamless combination of science and art is nowhere more visible than in his landmark map of Tartary. Although the element that first strikes a viewer is the high visual appeal of the brightly colored and finely engraved map it was in fact an extremely sophisticated summary of the most advanced geographical knowledge of Ortelius's time. Ortelius had gathered maps by the best existing contemporary cartographers including Mercator Giacomo Gastaldi and Olaus Magnus in order to assess the most recent strides in delineating the shape of the continent. As a result of his discerning judgment in sorting geographical fact from geographical fiction this map was ultimately one of the most accurate made available to late 16th-century Europeans. The Kingdom of the Great Khan. Whilst much of the nomenclature is derived from Marco Polo this is one of the first printed maps to attempt to define the relationship between the Continental landmasses of Asia and America in the North Pacific. Shows Eastern Asia beyond the Caucasus with its Eastern coastline including much of Polo's China including the fabled city of Quinzay. Japan appears center right in one of half a dozen outlines used by Ortelius for the archipelago in the Theatrum. Honshu and Shikoku are increasingly well defined with the indented coastline of Kyushu shown as a number of smaller Islands and with the Ryukyus and Formosa to the south. To the north are the fabled Straits of Anian first identified by Gastaldi in 1561 and fortuitously corresponding quite closely with the present-day Bering Strait and still providing the prospect of a northeast passage via Arctic Russia. The Northwest coast of America is shown with the Baja Gulf and peninsula the name California being employed for perhaps the first time on a printed map at its southern tip. Fine example of this popular and influential map. Accompanying the advanced geographical knowledge that the map presented is an amazing wealth of visual detail. The maps of Ortelius boast examples of the most beautiful Renaissance strapwork ever engraved visible in the decorative title cartouche and the dedication which is crowned with two nude allegorical figures. Rightly celebrated for unequalled beauty as much as for outstanding discovery this map represents a monumental moment in the history of mapping. REFERENCES: Van den Broecke 163.

Three fine engraved maps on a single engraved sheet of Peru and Central America Florida and the Gulf of Mexico and Guatemala the titles within fine mannerist strapwork cartouches in each map the Pacific ocean decorated with a large galleon and a sailboat all with fine modern hand-colouring in full Italian text on verso. "This is one of the very few maps printed in the sixteenth century that was based upon original Spanish sources. THE FIRST REGIONAL MAP OF THE SOUTH-EASTERN PORTION OF NORTH AMERICA. its influence was considerable" Burden 57. The later Italian edition of this map first published in 1584.The map records the discoveries of Hernando de Soto's expedition of 1539-1543. Drawn by the royal Spanish cosmographer Geronimo de Chaves who had access to first-hand information from the latest discoveries by Spanish explorers it is one of the very few maps printed in the sixteenth century that was based upon original Spanish sources. Generally the Spanish were very protective of their knowledge of the Americas a considerable source of their wealth. Based on de Soto's manuscript Chaves's La Florida was the earliest printed map of the Gulf Coast from Florida to Texas and is usually considered the first map to delineate any part of the interior of the present-day United States. The plate contains two other maps of similar Spanish regions of influence Peruvviae and Guastecan parts of present day Peru and Guatemala the latter combining with La Florida to extend the coastline of the Gulf of Mexico further south. La Florida in particular influenced all maps of the region for a century and is a primary source document of the first magnitude in the history of discovery and cartography. Few maps of the Southeast had a greater or longer influence on continental mapmakers than this map from Ortelius's atlas. Ortelius first published his "Theatrum�" arguably the first atlas in the modern sense of the word in 1570 with 70 seventy copper engravings on fifty-three double-folio pages. A businessman native to Antwerp Ortelius compiled the best existing maps re-engraved them on a standardized format and included them with the text in one volume. But by 1570 he had been dealing in maps and charts for more than twenty years. The death of Ortelius' father in 1535 who had been a wealthy merchant seems to have placed his family in financial difficulties. When Ortelius was as young as 19 he is recorded as having joined the Guild of St. Luke as 'afsetter' "or colourist of maps and prints. He seems to have reached a very advanced level of skill in this craft as some customers continued to insist on buying atlases coloured by him personally at a time when he had already developed into a publisher and cartographer/merchant� Ortelius also became a trader in books prints and maps. Much of this trading had to do with the house of Plantin subsequently publisher of the 'Theatrum'�Soon he was attending the book fair in Frankfurt to buy and sell books maps and prints for others as well as for himself. He first met Gerard Mercator there in 1554 which marked the state of a life-long professional relationship and personal friendship� " van den Broecke page 14. Through his work Ortelius became quite the cosmopolitan he travelled extensively to France Germany Switzerland Austria Hungary Italy England and Ireland and as a result had command of several languages. With the publication of the "Theatrum" came tremendous success and wealth. Giving full credit to the original cartographers the "Theatrum" was so successful that it was printed three times in 1570 alone. In 1574 Ortelius retained the position of Royal Cosmographer to Phillip II and was given a fine gold necklace worth 1000 ducats. Between 1570 and 1612 the atlas was published in 42 editions and the 7 languages: Latin German Flemish French Spanish English and Italian. Burden 57; van den Broecke 15. [Antwerp: ca 1612]. unknown‎

‎Maris Pacifici quod vulgo Mar del Zur cum regionaribus circumiacentibus insulisque in eodem passim sparsis novissima descripto.‎

‎Antwerp: Jan Baptist Vrients 1603. Single sheet 17 � x 23 � inches. EXCEPTIONALLY FINE engraved map of the Pacific Ocean the title in an elaborate mannerist strapwork and allegorical cartouche upper right and the imprint in the lower left the ocean decorated with ships all with hand-color in full evenly browned two older tape repairs to verso one or two pale stains. THE FIRST PRINTED MAP TO BE DEVOTED TO THE PACIFIC OCEAN AND TO SHOW AN EARLY DEPICTION OF THE WEST COAST OF AMERICA. 1603 Latin edition first published in 1570. Van den Broecke estimates this edition to have been printed in a run of 300 copies only. This map from the 1603 Antwerp edition with text in Latin on the verso was one of the most important that appeared in Abraham Ortelius's "Theatrum orbis terrarium." Entitled "Maris Pacifici" - "Ocean of Tranquility" - it was the first printed map to be devoted to the Pacific Ocean and also includes an early depiction of the west coast of North America Japan and New Guinea. Nova Hispania Mexico and the California peninsula are shown quite accurately for the time. Primarily however the map celebrates the achievements of Magellan the first to traverse the Pacific Ocean and to discover the strait at the southern tip of South America that would come to be named in his honor. Magellan's ship "Victoria" is depicted in the Pacific along with a celebratory Latin inscription. The map is unusually centered on the Pacific itself rather than on any landmass thus showing the ocean in its entirety as it stretches from Asia to America. This deceptively simple compositional strategy emphasizes the vastness of the Pacific while stressing the magnitude of Magellan's achievement as the first to circumnavigate the globe. Ortelius derived much of the Pacific cartography from the map published in 1589 by his associate the map engraver Frans Hogenberg though Ortelius introduced a considerably narrower and more correct North America at the latitude of the Tropic of Cancer than Hogenberg. Although the plate bears the date of 1589 "Maris Pacifici" was first published in Ortelius's 1590 "Additamentum" an appendix to his atlas and was then included in future editions of the "Theatrum." Ortelius "was very bold to attempt to map what was perhaps the least-known part of the world. He must have realized however that the Pacific was increasing in stature as a commercial route to Asia. The long-hoped-for northwest passage had not been found and mariners avoided the Portuguese-controlled South African voyage to Asia. The ocean became the focus of much sixteenth century exploration. "The symbol of that exploration was Ferdinand Magellan's ship Victoria; on the map it is at sea having just passed through the strait that bears his name. Magellan became the first European mariner to sail from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific and his voyage revealed much about the Pacific Ocean�more was known about the west coast of America and the Pacific after Sir Francis Drake's circumnavigation 1577-1580 when he explored America's west coast and named it New Albion. Ortelius followed Drake's voyage with keen interest corresponded with Gerard Mercator about it and incorporated as much as he could from Drake's discoveries onto 'Maris Pacifici' - the Gulf of California takes on an entirely new shape and the Rio Grande is introduced for the first time on a printed map� "Along the lower part of the map is 'Terra Australia' not an early form of Australia but a large phantom continent that the early mapmakers believed balanced the weight of Europe and Asia. When Magellan sailed around South America he believed he was following the coastline of the northern tip of Terra Australis. Like other sixteenth-century map-makers Ortelius incorporated this enormous continent into his map of the Pacific Ocean" Cohen. Van den Broecke Ort12. Antwerp: Jan Baptist Vrients, 1603. unknown‎

After he became king Sept. 13 1598 he showed himself to be indolent and indifferent to his responsibilities. His father revealed his disappointment when he remarked that his son was unfit to govern the kingdoms God had given him and would instead be governed by them. In April 1599 the new king married his Habsburg cousin the Austrian archduchess Margaret. "From the beginning Philip placed affairs entirely in the hands of a favourite Francisco G�mez de Sandoval y Rojas marqu�s de Denia later the duke of Lerma-the first in a line of royal favourites who governed 17th-century Spain. Philip's government continued a policy of hostility to the Turks and in Italy it faced the rivalry of the Republic of Venice and the Duchy of Savoy. In the rest of western Europe however a Spanish policy of conciliation ruled. Peace in the West enabled the government to deal with the internal problem of the Moriscos and on April 9 1609 the decision was made for their expulsion which caused serious economic and demographic difficulties in certain areas. The peace was brought to an end by the outbreak 1618 of the Thirty Years' War in which Philip gave his unconditional support to the Holy Roman emperor Ferdinand II and the Catholic German princes. Remote from his subjects Philip spent huge sums on court entertainments and neglected Spain's growing economic problems which were to reach crisis proportions in the following reign. Having resided in Valladolid in the first years of his reign he eventually fixed his court in Madrid. After a visit to Portugal 1619 he suffered the first attack of an illness that two years later brought about his death" Encyclopedia Britannica online. Ortelius first published his "Theatrum�" arguably the first atlas in the modern sense of the word in 1570 with 70 seventy copper engravings on fifty-three double-folio pages. A businessman native to Antwerp Ortelius compiled the best existing maps re-engraved them on a standardized format and included them with the text in one volume. But by 1570 he had been dealing in maps and charts for more than twenty years. The death of Ortelius' father in 1535 who had been a wealthy merchant seems to have placed his family in financial difficulties. When Ortelius was as young as 19 he is recorded as having joined the Guild of St. Luke as 'afsetter' "or colourist of maps and prints. He seems to have reached a very advanced level of skill in this craft as some customers continued to insist on buying atlases coloured by him personally at a time when he had already developed into a publisher and cartographer/merchant� Ortelius also became a trader in books prints and maps. Much of this trading had to do with the house of Plantin subsequently publisher of the 'Theatrum'�Soon he was attending the book fair in Frankfurt to buy and sell books maps and prints for others as well as for himself.

Through his work Ortelius became quite the cosmopolitan he travelled extensively to France Germany Switzerland Austria Hungary Italy England and Ireland and as a result had command of several languages. With the publication of the "Theatrum" came tremendous success and wealth. Giving full credit to the original cartographers the "Theatrum" was so successful that it was printed three times in 1570 alone. In 1574 Ortelius retained the position of Royal Cosmographer to Phillip II and was given a fine gold necklace worth 1000 ducats. Between 1570 and 1612 the atlas was published in 42 editions and the 7 languages: Latin German Flemish French Spanish English and Italian. Koeman Ort 41. Catalogued by Kate Hunter.
