1577Mappa tratta dalla seconda edizione in lingua francese de Le Miroir du Monde.Le Mirour du Monde è l’edizione in lingua francese in prosa dello Spieghel der Werelt, il primo atlante tascabile pubblicato nel 1577, in lingua olandese, da Philip Galle, con testo in rima curato da Peeter Heyns, e stampato dalla tipografia Plantin.Lo Spieghel der Werelt era una versione ridotta del Theatrum Orbis Terrarum di Ortelius.Le lastre, quasi tutte derivate dal Theatrum, furono disegnate e incise da Philip Galle. Due anni dopo, nel 1579, fu data alle stampe l’edizione in lingua francese in prosa, perché Heyns non aveva avuto il tempo necessario per la resa in versi, col titolo Le Miroir du Monde. Il successo di questa edizione francese, è provato proprio dalla seconda edizione pubblicata a soli 4 anni di distanza, nel 1583.Dal 1577 al 1598, Galle & Heyns pubblicarono ben 11 edizione, di cui l’ultima – edita nell’anno della morte di Ortelius – conteneva ben 123 mappe.Incisione in rame, in ottimo stato di conservazione.

The maps were drawn and engraved by Galle. Between 1577 & 1598 Galle issued 11 editions, all printed by Christopher Plantin.Copperplate, very good condition. G.

1779Carta geografica tratta dall’Atlante novissimo, illustrato ed accresciuto sulle osservazioni e scoperte fatte dai più celebri e più recenti geografi. Stampato in quattro volumi da Antonio Zatta tra il 1779 ed il 1785. Atlante fra i più belli e completi mai pubblicati in Italia nel XVIII secolo, l'opera più famosa dello Zatta. L’Atlante Novissimo, come si specifica anche nel titolo, è “accresciuto sulle osservazioni scoperte fatte dai più celebri e più recenti geografi”. Tra le novità più significative vi è la comparsa delle nuove isole scoperte nell'Oceano Pacifico da James Cook e la prima carta italiana della Nuova Zelanda. Le illustrazioni furono ideate e disegnate dai suoi collaboratori Giovanni Marco Pitteri, Anton Friedrich Busching, Pietro Antonio Novelli ed incise da Giuliano Zuliani. Il primo tomo dell’atlante è introdotto da un breve saggio di geografia generale dove l’autore definisce in modo sintetico e preciso gli elementi che compongono i reticoli eclittico ed equatoriale usati nelle tavole. Interessante la sezione dove si sofferma a descrivere il fenomeno della precessione degli equinozi e quello della variazione ciclica dell'obliquità dell'eclittica. Acquaforte, stampata su carta vergata coeva, coloritura coeva dei contorni, in buone condizioni. Map from the Atlante novissimo, illustrato ed accresciuto sulle osservazioni e scoperte fatte dai più celebri e più recenti geografi. Printed in four volumes by Antonio Zatta between 1779 and 1785. Atlas among the most beautiful and complete ever published in Italy in the eighteenth century, the most famous work of Zatta. The Atlante Novissimo, as also specified in the title, is “increased on the observations made by the most famous and most recent geographers”. Among the most significant innovations there is the appearance of the new islands discovered in the Pacific Ocean by James Cook and the first Italian map of New Zealand. The illustrations were designed and drawn by his collaborators Giovanni Marco Pitteri, Anton Friedrich Busching, Pietro Antonio Novelli and engraved by Giuliano Zuliani. The first volume of the atlas is introduced by a brief essay of general geography where the author defines in a concise and precise way the elements that make up the ecliptic and equatorial grids used in the tables. Interesting is the section where he pauses to describe the phenomenon of precession of the equinoxes and the cyclical variation of the obliquity of the ecliptic. Etching, printed on contemporary laid paper, contemporary outline coloring, in good condition.
