MUSEUMS. CABINETS OF CURIOSITY. MINERALS. Rome de Lisle Jean Baptiste Louis de 1736 1790; Davila Pedro Francisco 1713 1785
Catalogue systématique et raisonné des curiosités de la nature et de l’art qui composent le cabinet de M. Davila avec figures en taille-douce.
Paris:: M. Lambert for Briasson 1767. SOLE EDITION. Three tall octavo volumes:. 19.5 x 12.8 cm. Vol I: xxxvi 571 pages.; Vol II: vj 656 pages; Vol III: vi 290 286 1 pp. Collation: I. a-b8 c2 A-Z8 Aa-Mm8 Nn6 plus 22 plates; II. a3 A-Z8 Aa-Ss8; III. a3 A-S8 T4 a-s8 plus 8 plates Bound in contemporary mottled calf spines gilt with morocco labels light wear small imperfections. Internally all three volumes are in excellent condition. All 30 plates are crisp and in fine impressions. First and sole edition of this comprehensive catalogue of the collection of Pedro Francisco Dávila. The Dávila catalog as it has become known describes 8096 mineral specimens that encompass a large range of localities including a suite of specimens from Potosà in Spanish America as well as many items from Canada Mexico and Paraguay. In addition the catalog lists 5253 shells 600 preserved animals 101 plants 3915 fossils 154 bezoars and calculi and 402 books. Over 12000 prints and engravings 1741 original artworks 441 maps as well as various scientific instruments and precious stones are also described. "Pedro Francisco Dávila possessor of the largest collection of natural history specimens in Paris and wishing to establish an institution in Spain to preserve it approached King Carlos III of Spain. But political difficulties and an approaching war with England distracted the king who declined the purchase. Because of debts incurred building the collection creditors forced Dávila to put the accumulation up for auction in Paris. For this purpose a detailed collection catalog was required. Dávila had already written many descriptions but it was his introduction through Balthasar Sage to the young Romé de l'Isle that created this remarkable record of the collection. "Romé de l'Isle took the existing material added considerably to the mineralogical descriptions and put the catalog into publishable form. In this task he was assisted by Abbé Duguat who helped with the mineralogical descriptions and Abbé Gua de Malves 1712-1786 who described the shells. Through their efforts two volumes describing natural history specimens were produced one of which was entirely devoted to minerals. In addition a third volume written by Romé de l'Isle probably with assistance from Pierre Remy describes the fossils artwork and books. The published catalog provides a detailed insight into his collection his special tastes and preferences. The major value of the collection lay in its superb mineral specimens many of which were finely crystallized examples. Romé de l'Isle fully described the many fine mineralogical specimens which included examples of native silver from Norway cassiterite from the Dutch East Indies crocoite from Siberia pyrite from Columbia and calcite from Saxony etc. Dávila had been a collector for over 20 years when his accumulation was auctioned. In that time he or his agents had acquired specimens at other auctions including those that liquidated the collections of Albertus Seba in 1752 the Abbé Joly de Fleury in 1755 Claude Geoffroy in 1753 and others. Dávila's catalog received wide distribution in Paris London Amsterdam Rotterdam and Basle. This helped push the total realized by Dávila to over 800000 Spanish reales more than enough to pay of his creditors and to finance a second collection which he immediately began to build. Within two or three years he had again amassed a sizable collection specializing in minerals and selected with more knowledge and experience than his first collection had been. Once again he dreamed of establishing the cabinet in Madrid. In October 1771 this became reality when King Carlos III agreed to take over his collections with Dávila serving as director for life. This enormous collection eventually passed into the National Museum of Natural Sciences in Madrid where Dávila's specimens are still preserved today."The Mineralogical Record Conlon 67:1238; Nissen ZBI 1050; Sinkankas 1594; Wilson History of Mineral Collecting 1994: 136-40 166 & 209 provides a detailed history of the collections M.

ROME/PUBLIC HEALTH GALLESTRUZZI Giovan Battista.
VERY RARE ILLUSTRATED BROADSIDE <br> ON THE 1656-57 ROME PLAGUE EPIDEMIC <br> Disegno dell’Isola et Altri Luoghi di Roma Serviti in Occasione di Peste l’Anno MDCLVI.
This item is currently on reserve; please contact dealer for more details. <p>Etching 285mm x 390mm. Trimmed to neatline with insignificant restoration to the upper right corner. Generally very good.<br /><br /></p><p>Very rare no US copy fascinating illustrated broadside sold in Rome during the pandemic of 1656-57 presenting through a series of "snapshots" of the city at this dramatic moment in time a rich and varied iconography of its response to the plague. Printed by Giacomo Molinari and sold in the Strada Nuova behind the church of the Giesu close to Piazza Navona the print is composed of 15 vignettes of different sizes and perspectives along with 20 short explanatory captions alphabetized from A to X at the base of the print keyed to guide the reader to a fuller grasp of the situation. Taken together these scenes were meant to capture the city through the measures taken to contain the spread of the disease cure the afflicted and dispose of the dead.</p><p>Eight are views of civic religious and private resources- some bird's eye encompassing a panorama others close up of specific recognizable buildings- depicting basilicas churches a convent a prison and private residences to give the viewer the scope of the city's repurposed infrastructure. Medieval and modern structures were converted into lazarettos used as temporary quarantine and purgation centers for the afflicted according to the seriousness of their contamination. Two of the views depict the<i> lazaretto brutto </i>leper colony dedicated to the worst cases: the Isola Tiberina and the Convent and Hospital of Santa Maria della Consolazione run by the brothers Hospitallers of Saint John. The Isola Tiberina one of the poorest areas of Rome and close to the Trastevere district with its Jewish ghetto has gates and fences at its perimeter capturing the isolation of the seriously contaminated within its bounds. A depiction of a special boat to ferry the dead Jews and the domestic animals which were tossed live in the Tiber add dramatic macabre details. Three other views are of the <i>lazaretto netto </i>the churches of San Pancras San Eusebio and the private residence of Pius V dedicated to patients with milder cases. In addition there is a representation of a <i>lazzaretto netto e pulito</i> located at the new jail recently built by Pope Innocent X which was used as a <i>stufa</i> something between a Roman bath and a modern sauna where those who were in quarantine in San Pancrazio and San Eusebio were washed and sterilized. The Villa Sandesio is dedicated to the burning of the contaminated clothing. The Basilica of San Paolo le Mure which in fact was the last stop for the afflicted where the deceased received their last sacraments and buried in the mass graves close by is prominently illustrated in the upper left corner.</p><p>Beneath the views 7 smaller vignettes vividly render social scenes during the pandemic: the images include ecclesiastical dignitaries confessors doctors surgeons all actively moving around the city to alleviate the physical and psychological burden of the sick. Guards omnipresent in the images were responsible for transporting the infected by carriage or by foot to their assigned destinations as well as disposing of the dead and of the contaminated clothing and furniture -- often tossing them in a bonfire in the street as shown by the image in the lower right of the print. Such images recorded and served to emphasize the severe laws of "social distancing" between the sick and the healthy then in place. Additionally along the bottom of the print are 20 short explanatory captions alphabetized from A to X and keyed to the views and vignettes to guide the reader to a better understanding of the situation.</p><p>"The management of the Rome plague of 1656-57 was a great success. Its mastermind was the cleric Girolamo Gastaldi who at the start of the outbreak was serving both as the Commissario Generale dei Lazzaretti the Chief Administrator of the epidemic hospitals and the Commissario generale di Sanità per lo Stato della Chiesa… Only 4500 died in Rome about 8% of the population compared to the 150000 who died in Naples and 50000 in Genoa representing over half of their respective populations."—See Michael Widener's comments on Gastaldi's <i>Tractatus</i>… Bologna 1684: https://library.law.yale.edu/news/epidemics-and-quarantines-17th-century-rome. "The well-thought-out measures devised by Cardinal Gastaldi for the control of the plague of 1656 in the Eternal City represent the most logical development of eradicative anti-contagionist practice before the twentieth century and could still serve as a model for action against any truly contagious disease" Hirst pp. 408-9 .</p><p>The print was engraved by Giovan Battista Gallestruzzi 1615-1669 a painter and engraver member of the Accademia di San Luca in Rome. For more on this artist see https://www.treccani.it/enciclopedia/giovanni-battista-galestruzzi_Dizionario-Biografico/ It is very rare: Both OCLC and ICCU list only one copy at the Biblioteca Nazionale Centrale in Rome under Gallestruzzi. Rose Marie San Juan in her book<i> Rome a city out of print </i>p. 233-34 attributes the print also illustrated in her book to Johann Friedrich Greuter active in Rome at that time. Nevertheless the monogram of Gallestruzzi illustrated in his Benezit entry vol. IV p. 588 is identical to the one on the print and all indications lead us to believe that the designer of the print is Gallestruzzi.</p>L. F.

Title toned and a bit soiled with two small ink-spots not affecting text toning in the margins of some leaves; nevertheless generally good with some leaves uncut and with original deckle edges. Very rare first and sole edition of the first treatise published by the pioneering French mineralogist Jean-Baptiste Romé de L'Isle 1736-1780 and his sole work on marine biology concerning the "movement generation and nature" of the freshwater polyp. In the present work Romé hypothesizes drawing on observations by the naturalist "M. Bazin" that polyps are a kind of living hive built of thousands of tiny separate units 'petits grains' that nonetheless work harmoniously to feed move and regenerate the entire body. Though Romé's hypothesis is not entirely off the mark-polyps may reproduce asexually by budding for instance-it was eventually disproven by the observations of the naturalist Justin Girod-Chantrans 1750-1841.OCLC: No American copies.

ROME DE L'ISLE Jean Baptiste Louis
Description Méthodique d'une Collection de Minéraux du Cabinet de M.D.R.D.L. Ouvrage où l'on donne de nouvelles idées sur la formation & la décomposition des Mines avec un court exposé des sentimens des Minéralogistes les plus connus sur la nature de chaque espèce le Minéralisateur qui s'y rencontre & la quantité de métal qu'elle produit
Engraved allegorical frontis. by Augustin Saint-Aubin. xxxii 299 5 pp. 8vo orig. wrappers uncut. Paris: Didot & Knapen 1773. First edition and a lovely copy in original state of an uncommon book; this is one of Romé's first publications. It is a description "of the metallic ores of his own mineral cabinet in which he discussed the origin metamorphosis and paragenesis of each."-D.S.B. XI p. 521. Earlier he had catalogued the mineralogical curiosities in the cabinet of Pedro Francisco Davila and for several years found steady employment by preparing at least fourteen other mineralogical catalogues. In all the descriptions in the present work Romé stresses the importance of crystalline form and that this form is the chief characteristic by which minerals may be classified. Romé 1736-90 by formulating the law of constancy of interfacial angles established crystallography as the basis of mineralogy. The attractive frontispiece drawn by Saint-Aubin depicts two putti one examining ores under a microscope and the other stoking a furnace. Preserved in a box. ❧ Yves Laissus "Les Cabinets d'Histoire Naturelle" in René Taton ed. Enseignement et diffusion des sciences en France au dix-huitième siècle p. 669-"un véritable manuel de minéralogie." Schuh Mineralogy & Crystallography: A Biobibliography 1469 to 1920 4154-"Very scarce. In this collection catalog the famous French crystallographer fully describes about 750 metallic minerals from his own cabinet. Included are specimens consisting of pure metals as well as natural alloys and combinations with sulfur. Basic division is based upon the principle metals and semi-metals contained in the described specimens and include gold silver copper iron tin lead mercury antimony zinc bismuth cobalt arsenic and sulfur. Under each of these headings the specimens are divided based upon their form and chemical composition. For each item described notes on the origin associated minerals locality size and the estimated weight of contained precious metals is presented. The catalog is well referenced and if a particular specimen was given to Romé the supplier's name is included in the description.". unknown books
