réf. MB54Four Oblong Folio album leaves. With five mounted watercolours each ca. 16x29 cm 6 ½ x 11 ½ in or slightly smaller four with period pencil captions on mounts. Mounts with a couple of minor marginal tears but otherwise a very good collection. An attractive collection of lively watercolours of colonial Australia and Tasmania. Two views captioned “Lake Midgeon Wagga Wagga” and “Same” most likely depict the banks of the Murrumbidgee River and Wollundry Lagoon in the centre of Wagga Wagga town Riverina region of New South Wales. The wooden pedestrian bridge on one of the drawings looks similar to the one built over the Wollundry Lagoon in 1874 by a local architect Charles Redman and replaced in 1920 and then again in 1962 see more. The homestead on the left possibly stands on the site of modern-day Victory Memorial Gardens in Wagga Wagga. The other possibility is that the watercolours show Lake Mejum now Mejum Swamp northeast of Narrandera Riverina region 95 km northwest of Wagga Wagga. The watercolour view of the famous Botany Bay in Sydney features a steamship moored at a pier. The drawing of the Tamar River in Tasmania actually the estuary of the North Esk and South Esk Rivers flowing into the Bass Strait near George Town shows a steam and sail ships meeting at the estuary’s bend with distant hills in the background. Overall a nice collection of early original watercolours of Australia and Tasmania. A list of pencil captions: Botany Bay; Lake Midgeon Wagga Wagga; Same; Tamar River Tasmania. unknown

réf. 60409 ½ inches 24 cm. diameter; 21 inches 53 cm. total height. Single pedestal globe with horizon ring armature & meridian all of wood wear and staining on meridian at point where fits into stand some chipping at extremities else fine; globe with vibrant original color and clear sharp patina; some abrasion & losses mostly in lower and upper extremities; overall very good plus condition. An attractive very capably executed table or desk globe in the distinctive style of the Delamarche firm "the most successful French entrepreneurs in maps and globes" Dekker/ van der Krogt. This was an original work by the son Felix who succeeded his father in the management of the firm in 1817. The globe is geographically up-to-date notably in the South Pacific and Alaska with information from then recent Russian voyages such as Krusenstern's. Related to this at the time the globe appeared and reflected on it Europeans were beginning to differentiate between various regions of the Pacific. These were based on a better understanding of cultural and other differences between the peoples of various areas encountered on these recent voyages. For example in 1831 the French explorer Dumont d'Urville proposed the use of the terms "Micronesia" and "Melanesia" for various parts of the Pacific as distinguished from Polynesia. Printed dashed lines on this globe labeled "Division Oceanique" roughly approximate the three eventually accepted divisions of what is referred to as the South Pacific though the regions are not named on the globe. Delamarche also clearly identifies on the globe the more traditional divisions of the Pacific between "Grand Ocean Boreal" "Grand Ocean Equinoxial" and "Grand Ocean Austral." The Delamarche firm was the first to successfully reach a fairly sizable general market of globe buyers. It accomplished this by reducing the cost of constructing globe stands and other parts while maintaining a high level of quality in the maps of their globes which are cleanly and attractively engraved. Traditional brass meridians were replaced by wooden ones and the horizon rings and armatures supporting the rings were greatly simplified and made from either wood or stiff board. Also the firm generally used simpler single-pedestal stands rather than four-legged designs. Yet as this well-preserved example demonstrates Delamarche's design and materials proved to be very durable. Charles-Francois Delamarche 1740-1817 the founder of the family firm was the successor of the great map and globe-making family the Robert De Vaugondys as is cited in the title of this globe. Delamarche in fact seemed to have cornered the globe market in France by also incorporating the stocks of Jean Fortin and Jean Lattre. Delamarche's son Felix took over the firm upon his father's death and managed it until 1848 when Gosselin succeeded him. The firm continued well into the latter 19th century under yet another Delamarche descendent. Dekker/ Van der Krogt Globes from the Western World pp. 63 74; Dekker E.

2013réf. 1290Xlibris Corporation 2013. Revised. Paperback. Very Good. Oversized softcover. A very good copy with minor bending at the corners and a lift to the front cover.
