1652réf. 006683Paris: Chez l'Autheur 1652. First Edition. Full Calf. Very Good. 4to. 23.5 by 17.5 cm. Unpaginated 102 pages of text plus 2 pp. of ads 1 Royal privilege page. With 17 copper engraved maps all two page plates each with hand-colored of boundaries. Maps include one of the entire continent then of its various regions as then known plus island groups. Separate maps for China and Japan. Bound in contemporary calf. Condition: Rebacked with joints making this obvious. The original spine was re-mounted with some losses. Its blindstamped decoration of fans is discernible but somewhat vague. We think it is possible this decoration had some gilding or color originally but none survives. Still an interesting and unusual feature in our view. Calf dry and rubbed on spine and joints and edges rubbed. Light to moderate soiling in the margins of many pages and on a few pages the soiling invades inward beyond the margins and also in a few instances the marginal soiling is on the heavier side. There are a few archival tape repairs of small chips three on the title leaf one on the following leaf and after that wormhole edge damage was left untouched. That said the defect and repair isn't as glaring as it might sound. The edges elsewhere can have short spans of a chewed appearance. As a book generally we would consider this copy at best Good. As far as the maps go independent of the book we would regard them as Very Good. A few of the maps might individually fall short of such grading; on the other hand all the maps of this copy one can easily imagine someone enthusiastically framing even without an attempt to clean them up.

réf. 62978Paris Chez Pierre Mariette 1654. Original copper-engraved map of the Arabian Peninsula 43.5 x 59 cm with contemporary outline colour refreshed and adorned with a large columnar style title cartouche. A dark impression. Paper has been washed and strengthened due to foxing. Rare map of the Arabian Peninsula first published in 1654 and one of the first large maps focused specifically on the Arabian Peninsula. Sanson's map of the Arabian Peninsula continued to influence maps of the region throughout the latter part of the 17th century. Here Arabia is divided into three regions: Arabia Petraea the northwestern area encompassing the Sinai Peninsula and Jordan Arabia Deserta the northernmost area just south of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers and Arabia Felix by far the largest territory covering most of the peninsula and extending from the holy cities of Mecca and Medina in the northwest to the coasts of the Arabian Sea and the Gulf of Oman. There is great detail of mountains and rivers although there are clear geographical errors such as the exaggerated extent of the mountain ranges. Numerous villages are depicted including stopping places on the pilgrimage to Mecca Iathreb Badrahenen Gioffa and Cadaid among others as well as towns that appeared for the first time on a map of Arabia Hagair Hadrama Salamia and Iamama. Bahrain is demarcated along the northwestern shore of the Arabian Gulf. Nicolas Sanson was to bring about the rise of French cartography although the fierce competition of the Dutch would last until the end of the century. His success was partly owing to the partnership with the publisher Pierre Mariette. In 1644 the latter had purchased the business of Melchior Tavernier and helped Sanson with financial support in producing the maps. In 1657 Pierre Marriette died however his son also named Pierre co-published Les Cartes Générales de toutes les parties du Monde the following year. It was the first folio French produced world atlas. Tibbetts 98; Ankary p.98 Paris, Chez Pierre Mariette, 1654. unknown
