1598réf. 21946Antwerpen 1598. Other. A strong impression in excellent condition. 370 by 500mm 14 by 19 inches. Original antique copper engraving published 1598 in a French text edition of the " Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. Decorative map of Ortelius" first plate covering Gelderland.

The map is oriented with north to the left with ribbon cartouches marking the cardinal directions. Two ships sail in the Zuyder Zee and a decorative cartouche with flowers and birds. Ortelius was born on 14 April 1527 in the city of Antwerp which was then in the Habsburg Netherlands modern-day Belgium. The Orthellius family were originally from Augsburg a Free imperial city of the Holy Roman Empire. In 1535 the family had fallen under suspicion of Protestantism. Following the death of Ortelius's father his uncle Jacobus van Meteren returned from religious exile in England to take care of Ortelius. Abraham remained close to his cousin Emanuel van Meteren who would later moved to London. In 1575 he was appointed geographer to the king of Spain Philip II on the recommendation of Arias Montanus who vouched for his orthodoxy. He travelled extensively in Europe and is specifically known to have traveled throughout the Seventeen Provinces; in southern western northern and eastern Germany e.g. 1560 15751576; France 15591560; England and Ireland 1576; and Italy 1578 and perhaps twice or thrice between 1550 and 1558. Beginning as a map-engraver in 1547 he entered the Antwerp Guild of Saint Luke as an illuminator of maps. He supplemented his income trading in books prints and maps and his journeys included yearly visits to the Frankfurt book and print fair where he met Gerardus Mercator in 1554. In 1560 however when travelling with Mercator to Trier Lorraine and Poitiers he seems to have been attracted largely by Mercator's influence towards the career of a scientific geographer.

1752réf. ABC_49307Amsterdam 1752. 8vo. Adriaan Wor Contemporary marbled wrappers with a 19th-century paper label on the spine with the author and title in manuscript. With a woodcut vignette on the title page and two decorated woodcut initials. 8 662 pp. First and only edition of a very scarce work on naval medicine. This practical handbook was written by doctors who served on Dutch war ships that sailed from the Netherlands to Curaçao. It includes numerous case studies of sick sailors on these ships during the 1740s along with commentary from Abraham Titsingh 1684-1776 who was a surgeon to the admirality. The work is very rare as it has only been recorded in four libraries and we have only been able to find one other copy in sales records.The numerous case studies presented in the work are incredibly detailed and describe cases on board the ships Middelburg Maarssen Tylingen De Beschermer and Hartekamp primarily in the years 1743 to 1750 but with references to earlier voyages. They give a fascinating picture of illnesses and their treatment during voyages to the Americas. The work covers not only the principal illnesses facing the sailors fevers scurvy diarrhoea dysentery and dropsy but also wounds surgery amputations etc. Each account of sicknesses and treatments during a voyage with names dates and details of the procedures and of the exact composition of medicines given is followed by a lengthy commentary apparently in part by Titsingh who compiled the work. The present copy comes from the library of Dutch physician and zoologist Jan van der Hoeven 1801-1868.With the bookplate of Jan van der Hoeven mounted on the front pastedown. The wrappers are damaged around the spine with some loss of material around the joints the edges of the wrappers are slightly frayed. The work is uncut with a water stain in the head margin throughout not affecting the text. Otherwise in good condition.l Cat.
