1624réf. 21830Antwerp: Balthasar Moretus 1624. Other. A very good example in excellent condition. 360 by 480mm 14 by 19 inches. Original copper engraving published 1624 in the famous historical Atlas Parergon Latin text-edition by Abraham Ortelius. Finely hand colored in wash and outline. Fine and early historical map on Thracia. The area on this map covers mainly Thracia in Northern Greece and parts of Romania. The map is ornated with three cartouches in the upper left corner the title cartouche on the lower and upper right side we find text cartouches. Villages and towns are shown as miniature views. 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.

1624réf. 7932Antwerp: Plantin-Moretus 1624. Copper engraving 36 x 48 cms modern hand colour Latin text on verso. Ancient Thrace extending from Macedonia to Byzantium following the cartography of Gastaldi supplemented by information from classical sources including Herodotus Strabo and Pliny. Our example was published by Balthasar Moretus at the Plantin Press in the final edition of the Parergon. Ortelius's Theatrum Orbis Terrarum is generally considered the first modern atlas of the world originally published in 1570. Ortelius gathered and selected the best available cartographic knowledge and presented it in a single volume duly credited and finely engraved in a consistent style with explanatory text. The Theatrum was very decorative and hugely popular amongst the wealthy and educated running into over forty editions in Latin and the major European languages. For Ortelius himself however his accompanying atlas of ancient geography the Parergon was a "personal work" Koeman. He seems to have regarded himself first and foremost as an antiquary and rather than copying other people's maps he drew the originals himself; they were subsequently engraved for him by the master engraver Jan Wierix. The results have to be evaluated as the most outstanding engravings depicting the wide-spread interest in classical geography in the 16th century Koeman. Koeman Atlantes Neerlandici Ort 46.

2002réf. 596Oxford University Press 2002. Hardcover. New. The most eloquent president in our history Abraham Lincoln's literary ability was extraordinary. Indeed he is the one American president whose writings could be considered literature. Now in This Fiery Trial William Gienapp has brought together over one hundred pieces by Lincoln ranging from his first published political statement printed in the Sangamo Journal in1832 to his final public address delivered just days before his assassination. Here of course are some of the greatest speeches in American history including the Gettysburg Address and the Second Inaugural Address. Other pieces include his "A House Divided" speech to the Republican State convention in 1858 excerpts from his famed debates with Stephen Douglas and the text of the Emancipation Proclamation. The writings provide a documentary account of Lincoln's thought and how it evolved over time. We can trace for instance how his thoughts on slavery and emancipation changed through the course of the war from a rather limited view free only slaves used for military purposes to his ringing endorsement of the Thirteenth Amendment which ended slavery forever. Gienapp has provided detailed introductory headnotes for each piece and the book includes an extensive chronology of Lincoln's life. Often eloquent frequently amusing and occasionally profound these writings offer an intimate portrait of Lincoln--in his own words. Oxford University Press hardcover
1868réf. 019219Chicago: Western Bank Note & Engraving Co. 1868. First Edition. Document. Recently backed with thin paper with several professional repairs of chips and tears. Very Good . Large folio 16-1/4" x 21-3/4" finely engraved and printed on good quality paper with elaborate decorative borders with a "US" monogram to upper corners a bold calligraphic heading with "ABOLISHING SLAVERY" in prominent decorated letters; at top center is a small vignette of the pyramid and all-seeing eye above an oval vignette of a slave family with child mourning over a cameo portrait of Lincoln. This is followed by the engraved signatures of President Lincoln Vice President Hamlin Schuyler Colfax and J. W. Forney Speaker and Secretary of the Senate and 164 Senators and Congressmen. An exceedingly rare and beautiful printing of the Thirteenth Amendment abolishing slavery: "Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude . Shall exist within the United States." This elaborately engraved Reconstruction-era broadside is based on the special "souvenir" copies on parchment signed by Lincoln and the others of which only a handful are known to have been made. The Thirteenth Amendment represents the first substantive change to how America interpreted those liberties guaranteed by the Bill of Rights since its ratification in 1791. The Emancipation Proclamation only freed the slaves in the openly rebellious states. The Amendment effectively put an end to slavery once and for all upon its passage on 1 February 1865.
