‎Velde, Carol Wilhelm Meredith van de‎

‎Le Pays d'Israël. Collection de cent vues prises d'après nature dans la Syrie et la Palestine pendant son voyage d'exploration géographique en 1851 et 1852.‎

‎Paris, Veuve Jules Renouard, 1857. Elephant folio (440 x 570 mm). (1), 88 pp. With 99 lithographed plates and 1 engraved map. Contemporary red half morocco, raised spine bands, spined ruled and titled in gilt. Marbled endpapers.‎

‎First edition of this rare and splendid series of Palestinian views, uncommonly complete with all the plates. The ninety-nine beautiful lithographs, most subtly tinted in blues and warm tones, show magnificent views of Beirut, Sidon, Mount Hermon, the ruins of Hazour, Mellia, Akka, Samaria, Jaffa, Jerusalem, Kidron, Bethlehem, Hebron, the Dead Sea, and Gaza. The final plate is a map of the region with a few hand-coloured lines. All bear the engraved signature of Wilhelm van de Velde (1818-98) and the dry-stamp of the publisher. This copy includes the often-missing lithographed title-page and is one of only 300 volumes ever published. After this small print run, all lithographic stones were destroyed. - From the collection of Baron James de Rothschild, featuring the distinctive roundel bookplate of the Bibliothèque du Baron James de Rothschild. Born in Frankfurt under the Holy Roman Empire, James Rothschild initially moved to Paris to aid his brother Nathan Mayer Rothschild's business there; shortly, he established himself and his family at the heart of France's industrial revolution, and charted a steady course through the upheavals of 19th century French politics. Elevated to the status of Baron, his interest in art was genuine, and his collection well-respected. - Light exterior wear, with some dampstaining affecting the margins throughout. - From the collection of the banker James Mayer Rothschild (1792-1868), founder of the French branch of the prominent Rothschild family (armorial bookplate and label of the Château de Ferrières to front pastedown). - Blackmer 1722.‎

‎[Protectorate of Aden]‎

‎[Sketchbook of watercolour views of Aden].‎

‎Aden and Karachi, 1875. Oblong folio (264 x 180 mm). 28 ff. 36 watercolours, some on both recto and verso. With two manuscript letters laid in. Contemporary morocco-backed blue cloth.‎

‎A series of very fine original watercolours of 19th century Aden, painted by a British soldier stationed in Aden and Karachi, about 1875. - The population of Aden appears in a series of landscape paintings and especially in portraits, almost all of which appear to be plein-air candids. These show Jewish merchants of feathers and woven rattan, Somalis fetching water or at work, and Arab men and women strolling in elaborate traditional dress, from a frowning workman to an "Arab of distinction" clasping a sword in one hand, the hilt of a fine golden dagger tucked into his belt. Each is clearly sketched from the likeness of an individual person, with distinct features and personalities. Pencil notes in the margins even sometimes describe the subject: "An Elderly Arab Maiden - rather bashful" reads one. - One of the portraits is in fact captioned and signed in Persian by its sitter, the secretary ("munshi") Seyyed Vahid Ali of the port of Aden, dated 1875 CE and 1292 H. As a secretary of this kind, Seyyed Vahid Ali would have been highly educated and literate, an adept translator and interpreter with an understanding of regional politics. He may have been one of the many "munshi" employed by the British since the earliest incursions of the East India Company in the subcontinent, or he may have had his own work in Yemen. - The artist behind the sketchbook was a British soldier of the 113 Locating Battery of the Royal Artillery, likely by the surname Russell (as judged by the letters addressed to Russell's widow, laid in). Evidently Russell was stationed in Yemen and India, as several of the paintings at the end of the sketchbook show similar scenes of Karachi and its inhabitants. Throughout, the quality of draughtsmanship is excellent, and the personalities and landscapes of 1870s Aden are depicted vividly and sympathetically. - Light exterior wear to sketchbook, a few minor smudges which do little to detract from the paintings; in quite good condition. - 1) With two letters from a member of the 113 Locating Battery RA laid in, addressed to a Mrs. Russell, who evidently sent her husband's sword and a photograph album to the Battery after his death in 1959. The sketchbook was likely in the possession of Mrs. Russell, her son R. P. Russell of Sussex, or with the Battery. - 2) Latterly in the collection of the U.S. conservationist Esmond Bradley Martin (1941-2018), long a U.N. special envoy for the conservation of rhinoceros.‎

‎Notes of Travel or Recollections of Majunga, Zanzibar, Muscat, Aden, Mocha, and Other Eastern Ports.‎

‎Salem, George Creamer, 1854. 8vo (133 x 198 mm). X pp., (blank leaf), 253, (1) pp. Contemporary brown cloth, rebacked.‎

‎First edition of this travelogue, reflecting on the East Coast of Africa and journeys into the Arabian Peninsula, most notably Mecca and Aden. Eight chapters are dedicated to Zanzibar, six to Muscat, six to Aden, and eleven full chapters for Mecca, including discussions of everything from the ivory trade, male and female modes of dress, camels, the British bombardment and conquest of Aden, Bedouins, coffee, marriages, funerals, etiquette at homes and tables, and even business hours, naming traditions, and smoking. Described firsthand are the corporal punishments personally carried out by the young governor of Mecca, the use of rhinoceros hide on Bedouin shields, the preparation of coffee, the attitudes of children, and even the design of homes. Osgood, an American, was partial to Arab society in particular, and evidently enjoyed his time in it. - Cloth rebacked; some toning. - From the collection of the U.S. conservationist Esmond Bradley Martin (1941-2018), long a U.N. special envoy for the conservation of rhinoceros. - OCLC 4427641.

‎Desceliers, Pierre‎

‎Lithographed facsimile of the world map painted on vellum for Henry II, King of France.‎

‎Paris, imprimerie de Kaeppelin, [1852]. Lithographed wall map, 260 x 132 cm. 4 conjoined sheets mounted on canvas. Rolled.‎

‎Original-size facsimile of the manuscript nautical "mappemonde" executed by Pierre Desceliers in 1546, lithographed by the cartographer Eugène Rembielinski (1814-80). - Commissioned by King Francis I for his son (who would be crowned Henry II in 1547), Desceliers' "Dauphin map" or "royal world chart" is one of the most famous of the first half of the 16th century: hand-drawn and illuminated on vellum, it vividly illustrates the discoveries made during the six decades following the discovery of the Cape of Good Hope by Bartolomeu Dias in 1488. It was compiled from information that Desceliers had obtained from the other Dieppe geographers, from the shipowner Jean Ango, and the explorer Jacques Cartier. - Remarkably, the map has a dual orientation: north of the equator, the text and illustrations are reversed, suggesting that the map was in fact meant to be laid flat rather than wall-mounted so that it could be read from all sides. Thus, the vast majority of the earth's land mass, and almost all of the better-known parts of the world, is labelled as if the map were oriented with south at the top, recalling the Arab tradition exemplified by al-Idrisi's famous 12th century map. In charting the Arabian Peninsula and the Gulf specifically, "the cartographers of Dieppe in northern France seem to have had direct access during the 1540s to relatively reliable Portuguese prototypes" (Couto et al., Historical Atlas of the Persian Gulf [Brepols 2006], p. 114), even if they appear to have had difficulty reading all the place names. - To the south of Borneo, Desceliers included not only an island labelled "Java Petite", but also, immediately adjacent, a vast mass of land named "Java la Grande" - an uncannily good representation of the northern coastline of Australia, albeit far north of its true location, which merges into the Great Southern Continent that itself stretches into Antarctica ("Non du tout descouverte"), extending as far as the Strait of Magellan. Probably drawing on Marco Polo as well as Portuguese portolans of various scales, Desceliers' representation "sums up everything cartographers knew about Australia in the mid 16th century" (Tooley, Landmarks of Mapmaking, p. 245). - In the tradition of French Renaissance portolans, the map is remarkable for the wealth of its illustrations. The seas are decorated with compass roses, ships and sea monsters, while the land is adorned with a multitude of scenes and representations of fantastic animals. It is framed in the northern hemisphere by a border decorated with the heads of men with long beards, and cherubim and human skulls in the southern hemisphere, representing the winds and cardinal points. In many parts of the world, Desceliers drew indigenous peoples with great precision, such as the Hottentots in South Africa and the Native Americans of North America. - In the 16th century, it was in Normandy that the most richly illustrated portolans were designed. Pierre Desceliers (1487-1574) is perhaps the most famous representative of the Dieppe school of mapmaking, and he is considered the father of French hydrography and cartography. Only two of his maps have survived. His manuscript world map from 1546 is now kept in the library of John Rylands University in Manchester (French MS 1*). The facsimile lithographed by Rembielinski in 1852 is rare: we have only found two copies in public collections, one at the BnF, the other at the National Library of Australia. - Uniformly browned throughout; several old gaps and breaks professionally repaired. - OCLC 494994160.

‎Strabo‎

‎[Geographia.] Rerum geographicarum libri XVII.‎

‎Paris, typis Regiis, 1620. Folio. (12), 843, (112) pp. (4), 282, (8) pp. Title-page printed in red and black with engraved vignette showing arms of Louis XIII. Double-column text in Greek and Latin. Contemporary citron morocco, elaborately gilt with a semé of fleurs-de-lys and the king's crowned monogram. All edges gilt.‎

‎Enlarged and corrected second edition ("much more accurate and splendid than the first", says Dibdin) of Strabo?s "Geography", one of the earliest and most important scientific treatises of historical geography. Contains the Greek text beside Xylander's Latin translation, with commentaries by Frédéric Morel and Isaac Casaubon. Together with the works of Ptolemy and Solinus, Strabo's "Geography" constitutes the first attempt at a unified treatise of geographical knowledge. Strabo had visited Egypt and sailed up the Nile in 25 BC. Even in the introductory chapters, the author provides important details on the Arabian Peninsula: "Adjoining the Ethiopians, a needy and nomad race, is Arabia: one part of which is distinguished above all other lands by the title of Felix [i.e., Hedjaz and Nejd-ed-Ared], and the other, though not dignified by that name, is both generally believed and also said to be pre-eminently blessed. Though Homer knew of Arabia Felix, at that time it was by no means wealthy, but a wild country, the inhabitants of which dwelt for the most part in tents. It is only a small district which produces the aromatics from which the whole territory afterwards received its name, owing to the rarity of the commodity amongst us, and the value set upon it. That the Arabians are now flourishing and wealthy is due to their vast and extended trade" (bk. 1, p. 39); "Arabia Felix is bounded by the entire Arabian and Persian Gulfs, together with all the country of the tent-dwellers and the Sheikh-governed tribes. [...] Beside the ocean the country is tolerably fitted for habitation of man, but not so the centre of the country: this for the most part is barren, rugged sand desert. The same applies to the country of the Troglodytic Arabians and the part occupied by the fish-eating tribes" (bk. 2, p. 130f.). Furthermore, books 15 and 16 are devoted entirely to the Orient (bk. 16 is on Arabia in particular), while the final book 17 discusses Egypt and Libya. - Slight edge defect to upper margin of QQq3, affecting a few letters of the headline. A few marginal abrasions to the edges of the binding professionally repaired. - The personal copy of Louis XIII, King of France (1601-43), magnificently bound for him with his arms and monogram. Later in the Jesuit College, Paris (inscription on title-page). In 1624 awarded to the scholar Robert Roussel, College de Clermont, Jesuit College of Paris, as a prize for eloquence in Greek (inscription on preliminary blank). A faint, unidentified stamp on the title-page; stamp of the Bibliothèque Publique of Alençon on J2 and final leaf. - Brunet V, 554. Graesse VII, 604. Schweiger I, 303. Hoffmann III, 454.
