[MESSRS I. CAMONDO ET CIE ON BEHALF OF [PROBABLY] MOISE DE CAMONDO, (Ottoman Empire-born French banker, art collector and philanthropist), (1860-1935)].
Autograph letter signed.
Very Good French Original autograph letter signed (ALS) by P.pon "[We hereby declare that Ms. L. Cassinelli occupied our house located in Pera Rue, Hodja Ali No 19. On December 1, 1887, and left him on September 30, 1899. That during all time, he did not pay me the tax... P. pon de la succession de feu le Comte A. de Camondo. [i.e. On behalf of the succession of Count A[braham Salomon] Camondo, (1781-1873)]. Probably it's signed by his advocate of Moise de Camondo. Recipient is not defined. Letter indicates one of Camondo family's houses in Pera, Constantinople. 26,5x21 cm. Completely in French. 14 lines. On a paper watermarked "William Brown & Co., London". William Brown and Co. were located in London in this 'St. Mary Axe, and 40 to 41, Old Broad Street, London, E.C.' address according to Grace's guide to British industrial industry; they worked on 'Lithographic and Letterpress Printers'. 1887 Registered as a Limited Company. Count Moïse de Camondo, (1860-1935), was an Ottoman Empire-born French banker and art collector. He was a member of the prominent Camondo family. As a child, Camondo moved with his family from their home in Constantinople, Ottoman Empire, to Paris around 1869, where he grew up and continued the career of his father, Nissim de Camondo (1830-1889), as a banker. He was born into a Sephardic Jewish family that owned one of the largest banks in the Ottoman Empire, established in France since 1869. Starting in 1911, he completely rebuilt the family's Parisian mansion on the Parc Monceau in order to house his collection of 18th-century French furniture and artwork. Working closely with the architect René Sergent, he created a palatial home conforming to certain 18th-century traditions, even planning the room dimensions to match exactly the objects in his collection. The entryway is inspired by the Petit Trianon of Versailles. The home includes a kosher kitchen with separate sections for meat and dairy. The dining room includes a beautifully-carved green marble fountain in the shape of a shell, with a dolphin spigot for the ritual washing of hands before eating a meal. Some highlights of his collection include a French silver service that had been ordered by Russian Empress Catherine the Great, a set of Buffon porcelain (with exact reproductions of ornithological drawings) from the Sèvres manufacturer, and perhaps the only existing complete set of Gobelin royal tapestry sketches. He married Irène Cahen d'Anvers, daughter of Louis Cahen d'Anvers, in 1891. They separated in August 1897 after her affair with de Camondo's stable master, Count Charles Sampieri, whom she would later marry and divorce. The children, Nissim and Beatrice, remained with de Camondo. The mansion was completed in 1914, but his son did not reside there very long, as he rejoined the French Army to fight in The Great War. It had been de Camondo's great hope that his son, whom he adored, would take over the family empire. Following Nissim's death in 1917, de Camondo closed all banking activities. He largely withdrew from society and devoted himself primarily to his collection and to hosting dinners for a club of gourmets at regular intervals. Camondo died in 1935, and the museum opened the following year. He donated the home to Paris's Decorative Arts society as a museum (Musée Nissim de Camondo) in honor of the loss of his son Nissim in World War I. In addition to the collection, the meticulously-restored service areas, elevator, and woodwork of the mansion are noteworthy. During the German occupation of France during World War II, his daughter Béatrice, his son-of-law Léon Reinach, and their children (Fanny and Bertrand) were deported from France and died in the Auschwitz concentration camp. As a result, the de Camondo family died out.

[ON THE OCCASION OF THE SECOND VISIT TO ISTANBUL OF KAISER WILHELM II AND AUGUSTA VICTORIA, QUEEN OF PRUSSIA].

Wilhelm] ve Imparatoriçe Ogusta Viktorya [Augusta Victoria] hazretinin Dersaadet'i def'â-yi saniye olarak ziyaretleriyle Suriye seyahatlerine bir hatirâ-i nâçiz olmak üzere (Sabah) Gazetesi tarafindan Kariyan-i Osmaniyeye hediye edilmisdir.
Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Fine brown quarter leather bdg., brown boards with decorative embossing. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In Ottoman script (Old Turkish with Arabic script). 176 p., 33 unnumbered b/w plates of views of the Middle Eastern cities, Kaiser and queen's portraits, ills. of their maritime voyages, a general view of Beirut, a panorama of Jerusalem (in two pages), The Government House and Lake Tiberia in Beirut, a general view of Jaffa, churches and castles and Masjid-i Aksa of Jerusalem, Idlib, the interior of the Umayyad Mosque in Jerusalem, The Government House of Jaffa, Beirut - Damascus railways, street views and architectural buildings from Damascus, the market place of Jaffa, Bethlehem and the church, views of Trablus-Sam [i.e. Tripolis], ruins of Baalbek, and other numerous b/w photos, published for only this book. Slight stains on pages, a modern repair on a leaf with tape, otherwise a very good copy. Bound together with "Eski Sevda" which is a compilation of Turkish tales. First and only edition of this richly illustrated scarce and uncommon book was printed for the German Emperor Wilhelm II and his wife Augusta Victoria, the commemoration of the construction of Alman Çesmesi [i.e. German Fountain] in Constantinople, and the first anniversary of the Wilhelm II's travel to the Ottoman Empire in 1898. The fountain's design was drawn by the architect Spitta and constructed by the architect Schoele with the German architect Carlitzik and Italian architect Joseph Anthony, working on the project. The fountain was built in Germany and then transported piece by piece to Istanbul, reassembled in its current site, and officially opened on January 27, 1901, on the birthday of German Emperor Wilhelm II. Wilhelm II's voyage to the Levant in 1898 was a state visit that the German Emperor undertook in the Ottoman Empire between 25 October and 12 November 1898. The Kaiser started his journey to the Ottoman Eyalets with Istanbul on 16 October 1898; then he went by yacht to Haifa on 25 October. After visiting Jerusalem and Bethlehem, the Kaiser went back to Jaffa to embark on Beirut, where he took the train passing Aley and Zahlé to reach Damascus on 7 November. This book is richly illustrated including many views of the cities of this voyage's destinations like Jerusalem, Damascus, Beirut (Beirut), Jafa, Baalbek, etc. On 10 November, Wilhelm went to visit Baalbek before heading to Beirut to board his ship back home on 12 November. His visit spurred interest in the German Templer colonies in Palestine. One of the Kaiser's traveling companions, Colonel Joseph von Ellrichshausen, initiated the formation of a society for the advancement of the German settlements in Palestine, named the Gesellschaft Zur Förderung der Deutschen Ansiedlungen in Palästina, in Stuttgart. It enabled the settlers to acquire land for new settlements by offering them low-interest loans. A subsequent second wave of German settlers founded Wilhelma (named after the Kaiser, now called Bnei Atarot) in 1902 near Lod, Walhalla (1903) near the original Jaffa colony, followed by Bethlehem of Galilee (1906). The German Settlement Society successfully encouraged some of the Templars to return to the official, national Protestant Church. The non-Templar colony of Waldheim (now Alonei Abba) was subsequently founded next to Bethlehem of Galilee in 1907 by proselytized Templers now affiliated with the Old-Prussian State Church. The visit resulted in the highest-profile political event in the life of Theodor Herzl, considered the founder of Zionism. Through the efforts of William Hechler, via Frederick I, Grand Duke of Baden, Herzl publicly met Wilhelm II three times during the voyage, once in Istanbul (on 15 October 1898) and twice in Palestine (29 October and 2 November). The meetings significantly advanced Herzl's and Zionism's legitimacy in Jewish and world opinion. (Wikipedia). Only one copy in OCLC (Library of Congress.

[OTTOMAN CAPITULATIONS OF 1740].
Kitabi-i ahdname-i hümayun-u saadet-makrun.Paris or Istanbul 1816 or 1835. Large 4to 31.5 x 24 cm. The text of an Ottoman-French treaty set in the Ottoman Turkish alphabet a version of the Arabic script. Half calf marbled paper sides gold-tooled spine.
45 1 blank pp.Very rare edition possibly the first of the Ottoman capitulations agreed between a French envoy on behalf of King Louis XV of France and a grand vizier on behalf of Sultan Mahmud I of the Ottoman Empire on 4 Rabi al-Awwal 1153 AH 30 May 1740 CE. We have located only three other copies: in the Bayerische Staatsbibliothek the Österreichische Nationalbibliothek and Harvard's Houghton Library. This particular agreement comprises eighty-five articles nearly all concerning the granting of trade economic and legal rights favourable to France. It was mostly a renewal of articles previously agreed upon but includes some newly introduced articles.The capitulations are a type of treaty by which foreign people are given certain privileges mostly relating to trade and transportation over or even at the expense of native citizens. These treaties did facilitate mutually beneficial commercial and financial contracts for the parties involved considering an evolving global marketplace for example by minimizing the transaction costs taxes etc. of their exchanges. The foreign power often bought their influence benefitting local government officials partly at the expense of the people they were supposed to govern."The Ottoman-French Treaty of 1740 marked the apogee of French influence in the Ottoman Empire in the eighteenth century. In the following years the French had an unchallenged position in Levant trade and in transportation between Ottoman ports." Olson p. 75. The Ottomans first made capitulations to France in 1569 first as a strategy European powers used to eliminate the risk of falling victim to Ottoman raids and later to gain influence over Ottoman trade. These Ottoman-French treaties were renewed and amended several times from the 16th to the 19th century until they were abolished as a whole with the Treaty of Lausanne of 1922-1923 which also ended the Greco-Turkish War and defined the modern borders of Turkey.Binding shows signs of wear slight foxing throughout otherwise in good condition.l Europeana 1 copy Österreichische NB; WorldCat 612814438 1 copy Harvard and 165919643 1 copy Bayerische SB; on the treaty: Olson Robert.

[OTTOMAN EMPIRE].
Drop-title: Distinto ragguaglio della solenne udienza che alli 4. Settembre ebbe dall' Augustissimo Imperatore Carlo VI. re della Spagne d'Ungheria &c. a Vienna nel Palazzo Cesareo della Favorita l'eccellentissimo signor. grande ambasciatore Ottomano visire Mückerem Ibrahim Pascia …Including: Racconto della solenne visita che alli 7. Di Settembre 1719. Il Signor. Grande Ambasciatore Ottomano Ibrahim Pascià diede al Serenissimo. Prencipe Eugenio di Savoja …Colophon: Rome Giovanni Francesco Chracas 1719. 4to. With a hatched roman capital used as an initial. Set in roman types with extensive italic. Modern boards covered with chemical-marbled paper black morocco spine label.
8 pp.Extremely rare contemporary account of the audiences of the first Ottoman ambassador to the Holy Roman Empire before the Emperor himself and before Prince Eugene of Savoy both in the year 1719. This signalled the beginning of the attempted transition from war to negotiation in the ever difficult relations between the great Islamic and Christian powers. The Holy Roman Emperor Charles VI 1685-1740 conducted the successful Austro-Turkish War against the Ottoman Empire in the years 1716 to 1718 lead by Prince Eugene of Savoy 1663-1736. After the Treaty of Passarowitz ended the war on 21 July 1718 the Ottoman Sultan Ahmed III sent Ibrahim Pasha to Vienna to serve as Ambassador and Charles VI sent Count Hugo von Virmont to Constantinople as Ambassador to the Sultan. This exchange of ambassadors was celebrated with a grand ceremony near the border where the two ambassadors met on 15 June 1719. The present publication begins by noting Ibrahim's arrival in Vienna on 14 August and gives an account of his audience before Charles VI on 4 September. The last two pages with their own drop-title give an account of Ibraham's meeting with Prince Eugene of Savoy on 7 September. Both accounts include lists of presents exchanged. Eugene was to receive Ibrahim Pasha again at his newly built Belvedere palace in Vienna on 2 October 1719.We have located no other copy of the present edition but the ICCU records one copy of an undated edition. It is also a 4to of 4 leaves but the fourth leaf is blank and it apparently omits the account of Ibraham's meeting with Prince Eugene which appears on the fourth leaf of the present edition. WorldCat records one copy of a German edition of the account of the meeting with Prince Eugene and three copies of a German publication on Ibrahim's arrival in Vienna.Somewhat foxed but otherwise in very good condition and wholly untrimmed preserving all deckles. An important document of the Ottoman Empire's relations with Christian Europe and a window into the opulence accompanying the diplomacy.l Cf. ICCU RMLE047805 1 copy of undated ed. omitting meeting with Eugene of Savoy; KVK same copy; WorldCat 1 copy each of 2 related publications in German; for the background: C.W. Ingrao ed. The Peace of Passarowitz 1718 2011. unknown

[OTTOMAN JUDGE, "Ed-dai maa'ldem Sadi].
SLAVERY / THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE A law manuscript in Ottoman Turkish including the case on slavery.
Edirne Adrianople: Manuscript Edirne Adrianople fî 11 Rebiü'levvel sene AH 1321 = 7 June 1903 1903. No Binding. Very Good. Folio - over 12 - 15" tall. Highly uncommon and exceedingly rare law manuscript documenting the slavery continued during the last period of the Ottoman Empire at the beginning of the 20th century recording the dispute between the defendant and the plaintiff in Edirne on June 7 1903. The document recorded and certified by the Ottoman judge of the time contains the records of a lawsuit between the plaintiff Ahmed Efendi Ibn Salih and the defendant Süleyman Aga Ibn Fülan in the Fülan neighbourhood of the city of Edirne. The document includes the petition and ruling regarding the case in which the plaintiff demands that Süleyman Aga pay 500 kurus for a mule purchased by his "Abd-i Mecrûh" a slave without the right to engage in trade. The judge of Edirne at the time ruled in favor of the defendant Süleyman Aga on the grounds that a slave classified as "Abd-i Mecrûh" was not legally permitted to engage in trade and therefore the owner could not be held responsible for the transaction. The ruling stated: "taleb ser'an iltifâta sayan olmayin ser'i muarizdan menine ilâm" i.e. The request is not legally admissible and the claim is dismissed according to Sharia law. By the early 20th century slavery in the Ottoman Empire was in significant decline due to legal reforms and international pressure. The empire had a long history of slavery particularly involving African and Circassian slaves but efforts to abolish it gained momentum in the 19th century. Empire formally abolished the slave trade in the mid-19th century under British pressure issuing decrees in 1847 banning the trade of Circassian women and 1857 outlawing the African slave trade. However enforcement was inconsistent. The final legal abolition of slavery came in 1909 under the Young Turk government with 1909 Decree formally ending the practice. Despite legal bans domestic slavery especially of women in harems and household service persisted informally into the early 20th century particularly in remote areas. With the collapse of the Ottoman Empire after World War I and the founding of the Republic of Turkey in 1923 slavery was completely eradicated under the new legal system. In the Ottoman Empire hüccet ujjat was a legally binding document issued by a kadi Islamic judge to certify and record various legal matters such as contracts property transactions debts inheritance claims and disputes. Serving as official proof of a legal act or decision hüccets were widely used as evidence in court to confirm rights and obligations. These documents followed a formal structure detailing the parties involved the legal matter at hand the judge's ruling and in some cases witness testimonies. They played a crucial role in the Ottoman legal system by ensuring the documentation and enforcement of civil and commercial laws making them essential records of legal and social history. <br/> <br/> Manuscript, Edirne [Adrianople], fî 11 Rebiü'levvel sene [AH] [1]321 = [7 June 1903] unknown

Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Original manuscript document sent to the Ottoman court with postal stamps "OPDA" (Ottoman Public Debt Administration) [= Osmanli Kamu Borç Idaresi] ve "HJZ" (Hejaz Railway) [= Hicaz Demiryollari]. 28x21,5 cm. In Arabic. 1 p. 11 lines. On a paper with Grifon and "W" initial and "Original" watermarks. Paper probably from a British paper manufacturer produced the paper for the Middle Eastern market. It starts with "Yüksek Islâm Meclisi Re'isi Âlîsi'ne". There is talk of a deal made by the Safed mufti and the person concerned - stating that he has been waiting for two years for an unpaid amount after an agreement with a certain amount of Egyptian junaihs, Safed mufti demands that the rest of the money. Sayyidî, who states that he is getting older and that the money must be kept in order to be able to do the title deeds from the foundations, says that otherwise the title deed procedures will not be completed. Signed by Safed mufti named Seyyidî. On the bottom, signed by/as "Reisü'l Camiü'l Islâmiü'l Âlî, Mehmed (or, Muhammed) Sehvî]. "Safed is a city in the Northern District of Israel. Located at an elevation of 900 meters (2,953 ft), Safed is the highest city in the Galilee and in Israel. Safed has been identified with Sepph, a fortified town in the Upper Galilee mentioned in the writings of the Roman Jewish historian Josephus. The Jerusalem Talmud mentions it as one of five elevated spots where fires were lit to announce the New Moon and festivals during the Second Temple period. Safed attained local prominence under the Crusaders, who built a large fortress there in 1168. It was conquered by Saladin 20 years later, and demolished by his grandnephew al-Mu'azzam Isa in 1219. After reverting to the Crusaders in a treaty in 1240, a larger fortress was erected, which was expanded and reinforced in 1268 by the Mamluk sultan Baybars, who developed Safed into a major town and the capital of a new province spanning the Galilee. After a century of general decline, the stability brought by the Ottoman conquest in 1517 ushered in nearly a century of growth and prosperity in Safed, during which time Jewish immigrants from across Europe developed the city into a center for wool and textile production and the mystical Kabbalah movement. It became known as one of the Four Holy Cities of Judaism. As the capital of the Safad Sanjak, it was the main population center of the Galilee, with large Muslim and Jewish communities.".

[OTTOMAN NAVAL FORCES COMMISSION OF ENGINES].
OTTOMAN NAVAL FORCES / PAMPHLET FOR THE LIQUID FUEL Yag-i mâyi' mahrûkâti ve tertîbâti. i.e. Liquid oil fuel and its assembly. Translated into Ottoman Turkish by Bahriye Nezâreti Çarhçi sic. Çarkçi Komisyonu.
Istanbul: Matbaa-yi Bahriyye. AH 1328 1912. 1st Edition . Soft cover. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Paperback in original wrappers. Demy 8vo. 21 x 14 cm. In Ottoman script Turkish with Arabic letters. 16 p. Rear cover is missing. This pamphlet mostly prepared in the form of questions and answers describes the technical infrastructure required for the use of liquid oil fuel in warships. It was prepared for officers studying at the navy schools of the Imperial Ottoman in the early 20th century. On the cover it's indicated to be translated by the Ottoman Naval Forces Commission of Engines but no information on which source to be used to translate it. It's printed after the Second Constitutional Regime in 1908 and Tripoli War in 1911 probably during the Balkan Wars 1912-1913. Following the Young Turk Revolution in 1908 the Committee of Union and Progress which effectively took control of the country sought to develop a strong Ottoman naval force. The poor condition of the fleet became evident during the Ottoman Naval Parade of 1910 and the Ottoman Navy Foundation was established in order to purchase new ships through public donations. Those who made donations received different types of medals according to the size of their contributions. In 1910 the Ottoman Navy purchased two pre-dreadnought battleships from Germany: SMS Weissenburg and her sister ship SMS Kurfürst Friedrich Wilhelm. These ships were renamed Turgut Reis and Barbaros Hayreddin respectively. The Italo-Turkish War of 1911-1912 and the Balkan Wars of 1912-1913 proved disastrous for the Ottoman Empire. In the former the Italians occupied Ottoman Tripolitania present-day Libya and the Dodecanese Islands in the Aegean Sea and the Regia Marina defeated Ottoman light naval forces in the battles of Preveza Beirut and Kunfuda Bay. In the latter a smaller Greek fleet successfully engaged with Ottoman battleships in the naval skirmishes of Elli and Lemnos. The better condition of the Greek fleet in the Aegean Sea during the Balkan Wars led to the liberation of all Ottoman-held Aegean islands other than those in the Italian-occupied Dodecanese. It also prevented Ottoman reinforcements and supplies to the land battles on the Balkan peninsula where the Balkan League emerged victoriously. The only Ottoman naval successes during the Balkan Wars were the raiding actions of the light cruiser Hamidiye under the command of Rauf Orbay. For this reason the Naval Ministry on the one hand tried to train a large number of sailor officers by printing technical booklets like this in order to close the gap. Faded on the cover chipped on extremities and spine. Otherwise a good and rare copy. Not in Özege.; Only one copy in OCLC: 949520567 Bogaziçi Uni. Library. <br/> <br/> Matbaa-yi Bahriyye., [AH 1328] paperback
