1578Mappa tratta dal Cl. Ptolemaei Alexandrini, Geographiae Libri Octo, pubblicata prima a Colonia da Gottfried von Kempen (1578) e poi ristampata dallo stesso editore nel 1584 (Van der Krogt 1, 502) e poi da Isaac Elsevier per il Theatrum Geographiae veteris di Petrus Bertius (Leyden 1618). Di tutte le edizioni di Tolomeo, quella di Gerard Kremer (Mercatore), pubblicata nel 1578, e forse tecnicamente la più bella. A questo punto la Geografia di Tolomeo perdeva però ogni pretesa di “attualità”, laddove lo scopo di Mercatore era quello di produrre un atlante del mondo classico che servisse da complemento al suo atlante moderno (per tale ragione egli aveva tentato di recuperare la forma originale dell’atlante tolemaico, scartandone le moderne accrezioni). L'interpretazione di Mercatore del testo tolemaico, per le 28 carte che illustrano la sua Geographia è stata, quindi, una delle più veritiere. Egli aveva passato 13 anni a ricercare, disegnare e incidere le carte, rinunciando anche alla pubblicazione delle sue carte “moderne”. Questo esemplare proviene dal Theatrum Geographia Veteris di Petrus Bertius edita a Leida nel 1618, che combina il Tolomeo di Mercator, le 8 tavole del Moretus per rappresentare la Tabula Peutingeriana e 14 mappe storiche delle regioni d'Europa derivate dal Parergon di Ortelius. Acquaforte su rame, in buone condizioni. Ptolemaic map of British Isles. Showing landmarks, major cities and towns, rivers and parks. The map is decorated with a strapwork title cartouche, a sea monster and a fishing scene in the North Sea. Map taken from the Cl. Ptolemaei Alexandrini, Geographiae Libri Octo, first published in Cologne by Gottfried von Kempen (1578) and then reprinted by the same publisher in 1584 (Van der Krogt 1, 502) and then by Isaac Elsevier for the Petrus Bertius’ Theatrum Geographiae veteris (Leyden 1618). Mercator's interpretation of the 28 Ptolemaic text was possibly one of the truest undertaken up until that time. He had spent 13 years researching, drawing and engraving the maps at much commercial sacrifice to himself, having seen Ortelius's Theatrum and De Jodes Speculum published, to become both technical and commercial successes. In later life he devoted himself to his edition of the maps in Ptolemy's Geographia, reproduced in his own engraving as nearly as possible in their original form. This example comes from the Theatrum Geographia Veteris of Petrus Bertius published in Leiden in 1618, which combines Mercator's Ptolemy, the 8 plates of Moretus to represent the Tabula Peutingeriana and 14 historical maps of the regions of Europe derived from the Parergon of Ortelius. Copperplate, in good condition.

1725Delineata sulla scia della più grande veduta di Jeremias Wolff, l’opera offre quaranta riferimenti topografici. Il Leopold, era un modesto incisore ed editore di Augsburg; la sua serie di vedute di città, da cui questa incisione è tratta, venne pubblicata con pochissima tiratura, rendendo quindi le opere particolarmente rare. Incisione in rame, in ottimo stato di conservazione. Leopold was a modest engraver and publisher in Augsburg; the series of city views, from which this one is taken, has been published in a very limited circulation, which means these works are very rare. A finely-engraved view of pre-fire London seen from the south side of the Thames with fashionably dressed figures promenading in the foreground. With descriptions below in both German and Latin separated by the coat of arms of London. Joseph Friedrich Leopold (1668-1726) was an engraver in Augsburg, taking over the publishing firm of J.U. Kraus in 1719. His son, Johann Christian Leopold (1699 - 1755), succeeded him. Copperplate, in excellent condition.
