‎Acquaforte e bulino, priva di firma. Bellissima prova, impressa su carta vergata coeva, consueta piega centrale, piccole ossidazioni, per il resto in ottimo stato di conservazione.La mappa, appartiene agli atlanti editi dalla cosiddetta Scuola Cartografica di Colonia. Per circa mezzo secolo, Colonia fu il centro più importante nella produzione cartografica cinquecentesca, dovuta principalmente a rifugiati fiamminghi ed olandesi che fuggivano dalle persecuzioni religiose. Tra i principali esponenti della Scuola, citiamo Matthaeus Quad, Johannes Metellus, Giovanni Botero e Frans Hogenberg, che ne fu il fondatore. Gli atlanti spesso venivano pubblicati in forma anonima o con l’utilizzo di alcuni pseudonimi proprio a causa dei problemi politici e religiosi che caratterizzavano il periodo storico. Jan Matal o Metellus, francese di nascita è attivo a Louvaine ed a Colonia, dove si rifugia proprio per sfuggire alle persecuzioni dei regnanti cattolici e dove muore nel 1597. Fu tra i maggiori cartografi del tempo e, insieme al Quad e al Hogenberg stesso, il principale esponente della scuola coloniese. Giovanni Botero (1544 – Torino 1617) è stato un presbitero, scrittore e filosofo italiano, autore delle Relazioni universali, un trattato di geografia politica pubblicato per la prima volta a Roma nel 1591 senza illustrazioni cartografiche. L’opera divenne subito molto importante ed oggetto di studio in tutta Europa, dando inizio praticamente allo studio della demografia. Lambert Andreas (attivo tra il 1590 ed il 1598) fu principalmente editore, tuttavia, alcune delle mappe nelle sue pubblicazioni sono a lui stesso attribuite, sebbene in maniera dubitativa. Dal punto di vista cartografico le mappe sono una derivazione delle carte pubblicate ad Anversa da Abraham Ortelius, per la prima volta nel 1570. L’intaglio delle mappe viene attribuito a Frans Hogenberg. La carta che presentiamo è tratta dall’edizione tedesca delle opere di Giovanni Botero, denominata Theatrum oder Shawspiegel, edita nel 1596 da Lambert Andreas, che nello stesso anno pubblica anche l’edizione con testo latino. La grandissima rarità dell'opere della scuola di Colonia, insieme alla scarsità di informazioni su queste mappe “segrete”, contribuisce al fascino di questa importante carte, caposaldo di ogni collezione cartografica.

Etching with engraving, without signature. Beautiful impression, printed on contemporary laid paper, showing the usual center fold, small spots, otherwise in excellent condition.The map belongs to the so-called atlases published by the Cartographic School of Cologne. For nearly half a century, Cologne was the most important mapmakers center in the XVI century, mainly due to Dutch and Flemish refugees fleeing religious persecution. Among the principal members of the School, include Quad Matthaeus, Johannes Metellus, Giovanni Botero and Frans Hogenberg, who was its founder. The atlases were often published anonymously or using pseudonyms precisely because of some political and religious problems that characterized the era. Jan Matal or Metellus, French-born Louvaine and is active in Cologne, where he took refuge just to escape persecution from the Catholic monarchs and where he died in 1597. He was one of the major cartographers of the time and, together with the Quad and Hogenberg itself as the leader of the Cologne school. Giovanni Botero (1544 - Turin 1617) was a priest, Italian philosopher and writer, author of universal relations, published a treatise on political geography for the first time in Rome in 1591 without cartographic illustrations. The work quickly became very important and studied throughout Europe, beginning almost to the study of demography. Andreas Lambert (active between 1590 and 1598) was primarily a publisher, however, some of the maps in its publications are attributed to himself, albeit in doubt. From the point of view cartographic maps are a derivation of the papers published by Abraham Ortelius in Antwerp, for the first time in 1570. The carving of the maps is attributed to Frans Hogenberg.The present work is taken by the German edition of the works of Giovanni Botero, Theatrum oder Shawspiegel, published in 1596 by Andreas Lambert, that same year also publishes the edition with Latin text. The great rarity of the works of the school of Cologne, together with the paucity of information on these maps "secret", contributes to the charm of this important works, the cornerstone of any collection mapping.‎

Michelot Hydrographe et Pilote Real des Galeres du Roy et Bremond Hydrographe du Roy et de la Ville, avec Pri.ge Du Roy (1727), atlante nautico di 37 tavole, stampato a Marsiglia. I piani nautici sono incisi da Pieter Starckman, uno dei più attivi intagliatori dell’epoca, collaboratore di molti cartografi ed editori. Secondo Shirley [cfr. Maps in the Atlases of the British Library, p. 1234] la prima edizione dell’opera contiene 21 tavole, mentre la ristampa, senza data, contiene 37 tavole delle quali alcune datate 1730. La terza, e ultima, contiene 38 tavole e reca la data 1732. Henry Michelot, dopo il successo riscosso con la pubblicazione della sua guida nautica Le Portulan de Partie de la Mer Méditerranée, ou Le vray Guide des Pilotes Costiers (1703), si unì a Laurent Bremond. All’inizio del XVIII secolo Henry Michelot e Laurens Bremond pubblicarono due importanti atlanti nautici del Mediterraneo e piani nautici ampiamente utilizzati dai naviganti costieri. Le carte sono interessanti e importanti per l’attendibilità derivata dall’esperienza di Michelot che, a differenza dei successivi “geografi del Dépôt des cartes et plans de la Marine” come Jacques-Nicolas Bellin, ha avuto una lunga esperienza in mare. Il primo atlante prodotto contiene 16 carte, su piccola scala, del Mediterraneo e della costa atlantica in prossimità dello stretto di Gibilterra, integrate da una o più profili costieri. Le date delle carte sono comprese tra il 1715 e il 1726; in questo periodo Michelot si firmava come Hydrographe et Pilote Real des Galères du Roy (idrografo e pilota della cambusa reale per il corpo della galea dei re). Poco si sa del co-creatore dell’opera Laurent Bremond. Nella raccolta nautica il suo nome succede sempre a quello di Michelot, e viene qualificato come Hydrographe du Roy et de la Ville (idrografo del re e della città). Bremond sembrerebbe essere stato l’editore e il venditore della raccolta nautica, la forza commerciale della società; titolare di una sorta di negozio vicino al porto. Tutte le carte sono chiaramente contrassegnate: Ce vendent a Marseille chez Laurens Bremond sur le Port au coin de Reboul (venduto a Marsiglia da Laurens Bremond nel porto all’angolo di Reboul).

The charts are interesting and important for the reliability derived from the experience of Michelot who, unlike later "geographers of the Dépôt des cartes et plans de la Marine" such as Jacques-Nicolas Bellin, had long experience at sea. The first atlas produced contains 16 maps, on a small scale, of the Mediterranean and the Atlantic coast near the Strait of Gibraltar, supplemented by one or more coastal profiles. The dates of the charts are between 1715 and 1726; at this time Michelot signed himself as Hydrographe et Pilote Real des Galères du Roy (hydrographer and pilot of the royal galley for the kings' galley corps). Little is known about the co-creator of the work Laurent Bremond. In the nautical collection his name always succeeds that of Michelot, and he is qualified as Hydrographe du Roy et de la Ville (hydrographer of the king and the city). Bremond would seem to have been the publisher and seller of the nautical collection, the commercial force of the company; owner of a sort of store near the port.

Henry Michelot, after the success achieved with the publication of his nautical guide Le Portulan de Partie de la Mer Méditerranée, ou Le vray Guide des Pilotes Costiers (1703), joined Laurent Bremond. In the early 18th century Henry Michelot and Laurens Bremond published two important nautical atlases of the Mediterranean and nautical plans widely used by coastal mariners. The charts are interesting and important for the reliability derived from the experience of Michelot who, unlike later "geographers of the Dépôt des cartes et plans de la Marine" such as Jacques-Nicolas Bellin, had long experience at sea. The first atlas produced contains 16 maps, on a small scale, of the Mediterranean and the Atlantic coast near the Strait of Gibraltar, supplemented by one or more coastal profiles. The dates of the charts are between 1715 and 1726; at this time Michelot signed himself as Hydrographe et Pilote Real des Galères du Roy (hydrographer and pilot of the royal galley for the kings' galley corps). Little is known about the co-creator of the work Laurent Bremond. In the nautical collection his name always succeeds that of Michelot, and he is qualified as Hydrographe du Roy et de la Ville (hydrographer of the king and the city). Bremond would seem to have been the publisher and seller of the nautical collection, the commercial force of the company; owner of a sort of store near the port. All charts are clearly marked: Ce vendent a Marseille chez Laurens Bremond sur le Port au coin de Reboul (sold in Marseille by Laurens Bremond in the port at the corner of Reboul).

‎Carta nautica tratta dal raro Recueil de Plusiereurs Plans des Ports et Rades de la Mer Mediterranée Dediée A Monseigneur le Grand Prieur de France, General des Galeres Levé et Dessigné sur les Lieux par les Srs. Michelot Hydrographe et Pilote Real des Galeres du Roy et Bremond Hydrographe du Roy et de la Ville, avec Pri.ge Du Roy (1727), atlante nautico di 37 tavole, stampato a Marsiglia. I piani nautici sono incisi da Pieter Starckman, uno dei più attivi intagliatori dell’epoca, collaboratore di molti cartografi ed editori. Secondo Shirley [cfr. Maps in the Atlases of the British Library, p. 1234] la prima edizione dell’opera contiene 21 tavole, mentre la ristampa, senza data, contiene 37 tavole delle quali alcune datate 1730. La terza, e ultima, contiene 38 tavole e reca la data 1732. Henry Michelot, dopo il successo riscosso con la pubblicazione della sua guida nautica Le Portulan de Partie de la Mer Méditerranée, ou Le vray Guide des Pilotes Costiers (1703), si unì a Laurent Bremond. All’inizio del XVIII secolo Henry Michelot e Laurens Bremond pubblicarono due importanti atlanti nautici del Mediterraneo e piani nautici ampiamente utilizzati dai naviganti costieri. Le carte sono interessanti e importanti per l’attendibilità derivata dall’esperienza di Michelot che, a differenza dei successivi “geografi del Dépôt des cartes et plans de la Marine” come Jacques-Nicolas Bellin, ha avuto una lunga esperienza in mare. Il primo atlante prodotto contiene 16 carte, su piccola scala, del Mediterraneo e della costa atlantica in prossimità dello stretto di Gibilterra, integrate da una o più profili costieri. Le date delle carte sono comprese tra il 1715 e il 1726; in questo periodo Michelot si firmava come Hydrographe et Pilote Real des Galères du Roy (idrografo e pilota della cambusa reale per il corpo della galea dei re). Poco si sa del co-creatore dell’opera Laurent Bremond. Nella raccolta nautica il suo nome succede sempre a quello di Michelot, e viene qualificato come Hydrographe du Roy et de la Ville (idrografo del re e della città). Bremond sembrerebbe essere stato l’editore e il venditore della raccolta nautica, la forza commerciale della società; titolare di una sorta di negozio vicino al porto. Tutte le carte sono chiaramente contrassegnate: Ce vendent a Marseille chez Laurens Bremond sur le Port au coin de Reboul (venduto a Marsiglia da Laurens Bremond nel porto all’angolo di Reboul). Incisione in rame, in ottimo stato di conservazione. Bibliografia S. Bifolco, Mare Nostrum (2019), pp. 270-271, tav. 122; Palau, 168325. Tooley, 438,80.

‎MATAL o METELLUS Jan (Poligny 1510 - 1597 ca.)‎

‎Basilense Territorium‎

‎Carta geografica tratta dal rarissimo Itinerarium Europae Provinciae edito a Colonia tra il 1579 e il 1588. Conosciuto anche come Itinerarium Orbis Christiani, questo atlante fu pubblicato anonimamente a causa dei problemi politici e religiosi che caratterizzavano il periodo storico, come spesso succedeva all'epoca per sfuggire alle persecuzioni cattoliche contro i protestanti. L'opera fa parte degli atlanti editi dalla cosidetta scuola Cartografica di Colonia, durata per circa mezzo secolo (1570-1620 ca.), e formata principalmente da rifugiati fiamminghi ed olandesi tra i quali spiccano lo stesso Matthaeus Quad e Frans Hogenberg, che ne fu il fondatore. Le mappe sono attribuite alcune a Jan Matal ed altre a Michael von Eitzing. Jan Matal o Metellus, francese di nascita ed attivo a Louvaine ed a Colonia, dove si rifugia proprio per sfuggire alle persecuzioni dei regnanti cattolici e dove muore nel 1597. Fu tra i maggiori cartografi del tempo e, insieme al Quad e al Hogenberg stesso, il principale esponente della scuola coloniese. Alcune delle mappe del Matal furono poi incluse nelle successive pubblicazioni postume, e recano il testo al verso. Dal punto di vista cartografico le mappe sono una derivazione e basate sulle carte pubblicate ad Anversa da Abraham Ortelius, per la prima volta nel 1570; le incisioni delle mappe sono invece attribuite a Frans Hogenberg. La grandissima rarità dell'opera, insieme alla scarsità di informazioni sulle opere "carbonare" edite a Colonia, contribuisce al fascino di questa importante mappa, caposaòdo di ogni collezione cartografica. Incisioni in rame, magnifica coloritura coeva, in buono stato di conservazione. Opera di incredible rarità, mancante in praticamente tutte le collezioni. Esemplare di primo stato, avanti il numero. Map from the very rare Initerarium Europae Provinciae, published in Cologne between 1579 and 1588. Also known as Itinerarium Orbis Christiani, this atlas was published anonymously due to the political and religious problems that characterized that particular period, i.e., the persecutions suffered by the Protestants who were threatened by the Catholics. The work belongs to the atlases published by the so called Cartographic school of Cologne, whose works were published along fifty years (1570-1620). The school was mainly made of Flemish and Dutch refugees among which Mattheaus Quad and Frans Hogenberg, the founder of the institution. The maps have been ascribed to Jan Matal and Michale von Eitzing. Jan Matal, or Metellus, was born in France and worked in Louvaine and Cologne, where he fled to escape the Catholic persecution and where he died in 1597. He was considered one of the greatest cartographers of his time and one of the most important artists of the school of Cologne, together with Quad and Hogenberg. some of his maps have been afterwards included in some posthumous works with the text on verso. From a cartographic point of view, the maps derive from those published by Abraham Ortelius in Antwerp in 1570; the engravings instead have been ascribed to Frans Hogenberg. The rarity of this work, together with the lack of information on the secret works published in Cologne confer a particular charm to this map, a bench mark for every collector. Copper engravings, magnificent contemporary colours, in very good condition. Extremely rare work, not present in any collection. Example in the first state, before the number was added.

Il Lloyd Triestino è la più antica società di navigazione italiana ed una delle più antiche del mondo. Fu fondato nel 1836 con il nome di Lloyd austriaco di assicurazione, essendo Trieste era ancora sotto l’Impero Austro-Ungarico.  I primi passi della Compagnia vennero accompagnati dalla pubblicazione del Giornale del Lloyd che riportava notizie di carattere marittimo e commerciale. Questa sezione disponeva di una propria moderna tipografia, che ha curato la pubblicazione fino alla sua cessazione avvenuta nel 1931. Il 21 giugno 1849 il Lloyd istituì ufficialmente una “Sezione letterario-artistica” contribuendo notevolmente alla diffusione e allo sviluppo della cultura italiana a Trieste e in Istria. Tra le iniziative di maggior rilievo editoriale ricordiamo per le pubblicazioni tecniche l’Annuario Marittimo e la Rivista Marittima, per quelle artistico-letterarie le Letture di famiglia, una delle prime se non la prima grande rivista illustrata italiana che annoverò fra i collaboratori: Aleardi, i due Cantù, Maffei, Rosmini, Carcano. Incisione in rame, in buono stato di conservazione. View taken from Letture di Famiglia Opera Illustrata con incisioni in acciaio che si pubblica dalla sezione Letterario Artistica del Lloyd Austriaco, published in Trieste between 1852 and 1862. Lloyd Triestino is the oldest Italian shipping company and one of the oldest in the world. It was founded in 1836 under the name Austrian Insurance Lloyd, as Trieste was still under the Austro-Hungarian Empire.  The Company's first steps were accompanied by the publication of the Lloyd's Journal, which reported maritime and commercial news. This section had its own modern printing press, which edited the publication until it was discontinued in 1931. On June 21, 1849, Lloyd officially established a "Literary-Artistic Section," contributing greatly to the spread and development of Italian culture in Trieste and Istria. Among the most important editorial initiatives we recall for technical publications the Annuario Marittimo and the Rivista Marittima, for artistic-literary ones the Letture di famiglia, one of the first if not the first great Italian illustrated magazine that counted among its contributors: Aleardi, the two Cantùs, Maffei, Rosmini, Carcano. Copperplate, very good condition.‎
