Direzione Generale del Censo
Pianta Topografica di Roma pubblicata dalla Direzione Generale del Censo ed aggioranta a tutto il corrente anno MDCCCLXVI
Rara pianta della città, a proiezione verticale, orientata con il nord in alto.La pianta fu pubblicata per la prima volta nel 1829: "La pianta del Censo è senz'altro la più accurata e significativa pianta della Roma Papale nel sec. XIX. Gli edifici sono campiti a tratteggio; chiese e monumenti principali sono rappresentate con la pianta interna. L'orografia è chiaramente leggibile così come il disegno del verde. Ampia legenda sul lato sinistro ed in basso a destra elenco dei XIV rioni. È raffigurata la sola città entro il perimentro delle mura che risalta pertanto nitidamente sul fondo bianco. Il Cardinale Cesare Guerrieri, primo presidente della Congregazione dei Catasti (poi Censo) dal 1816 al 1832, fece incidere e pubblicare questa pianta, basandosi sulle mappe manoscritte del Catasto Urbano ordinate da PIO VII nel 1818 e completate nel 1822" (cfr. Marigliani p. 323). Una seconda stesura dell'opera viene alla luce nel 1854, ristampa delle lastre originali, che contiene l'indicazione del ponte di ferro costruito accanto a Ponte Rotto. La pianta fu poi definitivamente emendata nel 1866 - questa nostra edizione."E' la più accurata immagine della città subito prima che diventasse capitale. Compare il ponte di ferro a San Giovanni dei Fiorentini (1863) ed è indicata la fabbrica dei tabacchi (1863) con l'antistante Piazza Matai (1864). Ci sono le linee ferroviarie a Termini (1862) mentre manca ovviamente il fabbricato die viaggiatori (1867). È riportato infine il primo tratto di via Nazionale (fino a via Quattro Fontane), tracciata proprio nel 1866" (cfr. Marigliani p. 411).Acquaforte, stampata da 4 lastre su altrettanti fogli di carta coeva, tagliati, applicati su tela e montati ad astuccio. Tela leggermente lesionata nelle pieghe, per il resto in buono stato di conservazione.Esemplare con ex-libris della libreria di Ulderico Bossi, che aveva sede in Roma a via del Corso 401.BibliografiaA. P. Frutaz, "Le piante di Roma", n. 191; C. Marigliani, "Le Piante di Roma delle collezioni private", n. 354; Scaccia Scarafoni, "Le Piante di Roma", n. 312. Rare map of the city, with vertical projection, oriented with the north at the top.The map was published for the first time in 1829, and is undoubtedly the most accurate and significant map of Papal Rome in the nineteenth century. Wide key-legend on the left side and at the bottom right list of the XIV districts. It is represented the only city within the perimeter of the walls that stands out clearly on the white background. Cardinal Cesare Guerrieri, first president of the Congregazione dei Catasti (later Censo) from 1816 to 1832, had this map engraved and published, based on the manuscript maps of the Catasto Urban ordered by PIO VII in 1818 and completed in 1822. A second issue of the map comes to light in 1854, reprint of the original plates, which contains the indication of the iron bridge built next to Ponte Rotto. The map was then definitively amended in 1866 - our edition.It is the most accurate image of the town just before it became capital of Italy. The iron bridge appears in San Giovanni dei Fiorentini (1863) and the tobacco factory (1863) is indicated with the opposite Piazza Matai (1864). There are the railway lines at Termini (1862) while the travellers' building (1867) is obviously missing. Finally, shows the first part of Via Nazionale, traced in 1866.Etching, printed from 4 plates on 4 sheets of contemporary paper, cut, applied on canvas and mounted in a box. Canvas slightly damaged in the folds, otherwise in good condition.Exemple with ex-libris of the book seller Ulderico Bossi, which was based in Rome in via del Corso 401.BibliografiaA. P. Frutaz, "Le piante di Roma", n. 191; C. Marigliani, "Le Piante di Roma delle collezioni private", n. 354; Scaccia Scarafoni, "Le Piante di Roma", n. 312. A. P. Frutaz, "Le piante di Roma", n. 191; C.

DOETECUM Johannes van (Attivo tra il 1554 - 1606)
Totius Orbis Cogniti Universalis Descriptio
Magnifica mappa del mondo a doppio emisfero finemente incisa, incisa da Jan Van Doetecum per Paulus Merula nel 1605. La raffinata incisione di Van Doetcum si basa su una mappa di suo padre Baptista van Doetecum per Petrus Plancius nel 1590, con diversi importanti aggiornamenti, tra cui l'aggiunta della recentemente esplorata Nova Zemlya (esplorata da Barentsz durante i suoi 3 viaggi nelle regioni artiche alla ricerca del “Passaggio a Nord-Est”) e l'aggiunta di due emisferi celesti, basati sulla mappa del mondo di Plancius del 1594. La mappa aggiunge, agli angoli, l’ingrandimento di 4 isole, Giappone, Isola, Ceylon e Sant'Elena. Include le quattro grandi isole dell'Artico, così come appaiono sullemappa di Mercatore del 1595. Il “Passaggio a Nord-Ovest” è aperto e chiaramente definito, permettendo un passaggio attraverso lo Stretto di Anian nel Pacifico verso l'Atlantico. California e Quivira sono nominati, insieme alle annotazioni sulla scoperta dell'America da parte di Colombo nel 1492 e alle note sulle regioni settentrionali conosciute e sconosciute dell'America. L'enorme continente meridionale è chiamato Magellanica, Terra Australis, e anche Terra del Fuoco, prima del viaggio di Le Maire e Schouten che avrebbe iniziato a riscrivere la credenza allora prevalente che lo stretto scoperto da Ferdinando Magellano fosse l'unico passaggio d'acqua tra l'Atlantico e l'Oceano Pacifico nell'emisfero meridionale. Viene mostrata una massiccia Guinea Nova, senza alcun segno delle moderne scoperte in Australia e Nuova Zelanda, con i resti delle informazioni di Marco Polo ancora presenti nella regione. C'è una prima apparizione delle Filippine (I. Filipinae). La costa cinese, pur essendo ricca di informazioni, precede la comparsa della Corea e fornisce una presentazione molto curiosa del Giappone. La mappa è riccamente impreziosita da decorazioni di velieri, che riflettono la mano del maestro incisore caratteristica della famiglia Van Doetcum, allora forse i migliori incisori impegnati attivamente nella realizzazione di mappe commerciali. Acquaforte e bulino, in ottimo stato di conservazione. Magnifico esemplare. Striking dark impression of this finely engraved double hemisphere map of the World, engraved by Jan Van Doetecum for Paulus Merula in 1605. Van Doetcum's fine engraving his based upon a map engraved by his father Baptista van Doetecum for Petrus Plancius in 1590, with several important updates, including the addition of the recently explored Nova Zemlya (explored by Barentsz during his 3 voyages to the arctic regions in search of the Northeast Passage) and the addition of two celestial hemispheres, based upon Plancius' world map of 1594. The map also adds fine large format images of 4 islands, Japan, Island, Ceylon and St. Helena, presenting fine enlargements of these islands as they appearon the map. The map includes the four large islands in the Arctic, as they appeared on Mercator's maps, including his very rare 1595 map of the Polar Regions. The Northwest Passage is open and clearly defined, allowing a passage via the Straits of Anian in the Pacific to the Atlantic. California and Quivira are named, along with annotations on the discovery of America by Columbus in 1492 and notes on the known and unknown northern regions of America. The massive southern continent is called Magellanica, Terra Australis, and also Terra del Fuego, pre-dating the voyage of Le Maire and Schouten which would begin to re-write the then prevailing belief that the strait discovered by Ferdinand Magellan was the only water passage from between the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean in the Southern Hemisphere. A massive Nova Guinea is shown, with no signs of the modern discoveries in Australia and New Zealand, with remnants of the information from Marco Polo still present in the region (Beach). There is an early appearance of the Philippines (I. Filipinae). The Chinese coastline, while filled with information, pre-dates the appearance of Korea and provides a very curious presentation of Japan. The map is richly embellished with strapwork decorations and sailing ships, reflecting the master-engraver's hand characteristic of the Van Doetcum family, which were then perhaps the finest engravers actively engaged in commercial map making. Etching with engraving, very good condition. R. W. Shirley, "The Mapping of the world", 254; New Hollstein, Doetecum IV, 995

About the author: "David Paul Drach aka Paul-Louis-Bernard Drach after his conversion 1791-1865 was a Catholic convert from Judaism and librarian of the College of Propaganda in Rome. Drach received his early education from his father who was a rabbi. After spending some time in various Talmudic schools he became a teacher at Rappoltsweiler though only sixteen years of age. The love of the secular sciences brought him to Paris where he was welcomed by his coreligionists and became tutor in a wealthy Jewish family. His reputation as a teacher brought him Christian pupils; and this may have had some influence on his subsequent conversion; in fact he had always manifested some leaning toward Christianity. Drach had already begun the study of Greek and Latin so as to become acquainted with the Christian doctrines in their original sources. Struck by the accusation of some of the Fathers that the Jews had corrupted the Hebrew text he began a comparative study of the Hebrew and the Septuagint which study he continued in spite of the remonstrances of the president of the Central Consistory. Drach was received into the Catholic faith in 1823 together with his two daughters and his son Paul who afterward became a priest and a distinguished Biblical scholar. In 1827 Drach accepted the position of librarian of the Propaganda in Rome which position he held until the year of his death." From the Jewish Encyclopedia. Fortunato Stella e Figli hardcover
