No Binding. Condition: Very Good. Copper engraved map, hand colourd, large decorative cartouches including portrait, coats of arms, central vertical fold repaired without loss, overall slight toning, Nuremberg, c.1720. A decorative map of Germany during the Roman Empire. Extends from Paris to Warsaw and Denmark to Italy, showing the many cities established by the Romans. Johann Baptiste Homann (1664-1724) was the most prominent and prolific map publisher of the 18th century. After studying in a Jesuit school with the intent of becoming a Dominican Priest, before converting to Protestantism in 1687. Following his conversion he moved to Nuremberg and worked as a notary until 1702 where he founded the famous Homann Heirs publishing company. In the next 5 years he would publish hundreds of maps and develop a distinctive style recognised by heavy engraving, elaborate allegorical cartouche work and vibrant hand colouring. Due to the lower cost of printing in Germany, Homann was able to undercut the French and Dutch publishers, establishing himself as an important entity in the European map market. In 1715, Johann was named Imperial Geographer to the Holy Roman Empire by Charles VI and made a member of the Prussian Academy of Sciences. This appointment gave him access to the most up to date cartographic information, and most importantly his reputation and contacts gained him imperial printing privileges which protected his publications. Johann is best known for this Grosser Atlas ueber die ganze Welt, or the Grand Atlas of the World, published in 1716. Provenance: H.A.J. Staples of Her Majesty s Service.

Condition: Very Good. The Margraviate of Brandenburg and adjacent Duchy of Pomerania were rival territories since the 12th century. The conflict often escalated to open war between the two, either as independent fiefs or as vassals subject to a king or emperor. At the time this map was published, both regions were part of the Kingdom of Prussia. Much of the territory of Pomerania (red) was acquired from Sweden during a series of successful wars earlier in the century. The image shows a detailed overview of the complex political situation. Original color highlights the extent of each territory, with neighboring duchies and kingdoms also outlined and named. Geographic features like mountain ranges and forests are depicted pictorially. A fascinating variety of place names are labeled, including fortified cities, ecclesiastical towns, monasteries, hunting lodges, and more. Two decorative cartouches are also present. One, lower right, shows a putti with measuring devices over two distance scales. The second, more elaborate, cartouche can be seen in the upper right. It's framed by several puttis holding aloft a banner containing the title, as well as the Royal Coat of Arms of the Holy Roman Empire and Prussia. Sheet Width (in) 23.6 Sheet Height (in) 19.7 Condition Description "The sheet shows moderate to heavy discoloration throughout the image and around the outer margins. Several stains and spots visible in the upper half of the sheet and 2 tears, about 3" each, have been repaired on the verso with archival tape. Original hand color. Not in good condition, but better than fair.".

Condition: Very Good. This beautiful copperplate engraved map was published in Nuremberg by Johann Baptiste Homann around 1730. It shows the Kingdom of Denmark situated between the North and Baltic Seas. About a decade earlier, the end of the Great Northern War saw Denmark relinquish territorial claims on the European continent and Swedish coast, reducing the nation to its depicted size. Original color, applied by hand, distinguishes the various duchies and islands that comprise the kingdom. Pictorial elements identify geographic features like mountains and forests and a variety of toponyms label an interesting mix of places throughout the image. It was a largely agricultural community, as reflected by the decorative title cartouche in the upper right. A variety of draft animals and livestock are overseen by two crudely dressed men wielding clubs. These are the woodwose, or wild men, that play a prominent role in Scandinavian mythology and can still be found on the Royal Danish Coat of Arms today. Sheet Width (in) 23.75 Sheet Height (in) 21 Condition Description Moderate toning and spotting visible in the margins, along with some wear to the outer edges of the sheet. The image is clean and shows a nice impression with original hand color.

Condition: Very Good. The city of Frankfurt (formerly known as Frankfurt am Main to distinguish it from other cities of the same name) was one of the most important urban centers in the entire Holy Roman Empire. It was the site of imperial coronations, hosted one of the largest markets in the world, and suffered tremendously during the Black Death. This map, published by Johann Baptiste Homann around 1717, captures the essence of the city near the beginning of the Enlightenment Period. The primary image shows an outline of Frankfurt and Saxenhausen on the opposite bank of the River Main. Geographic features and locations of interest in the immediate vicinity are depicted pictorially and individually labeled. The fortifications are prominently shown and can be seen in further detail in the elaborate cartouche immediately below. On either side are allegorical representations of civilization, economic prosperity, and Germanic identity. Further scenes showing the market day and imperial coronation highlight two other events for which the city is known. Sheet Width (in) 25.3 Sheet Height (in) 20.6 Condition Description Heavy soiling and discoloration visible at the top of the sheet, along the vertical centerfold. Minor paper loss has occurred as a result. Otherwise the map is in good condition - a thick, bold impression issued on a clean, watermarked sheet. Old hand color.

FINE MAP OF POLAND AND KALININGRAD "Regnum Borussiae Gloriosis auspicys Serenissimi et Potentissimi Princip Friderich III." Copper engraving published around 1710 by Johann Baptist Homann in Nuremberg. Coloured by a later hand. Size: 48,3 x 57,2 cm Beautiful map of the Baltic coast consisting of northern Poland (former Prussia), Königsberg (nowadays Kaliningrad), and parts of Lithuania. It includes the major cities of Danzig (Gda'sk), Elbing (Elblag), Mariënburg (Malbork), Heilsberg (Lidzbark Warmi'ski), and Culm (Che'mno). Mountains and forests are rendered in profile following Homann s typical stylistic conventions. An elaborate decorative cartouche bearing numerous allegorical elements fills the Baltic Sea at the top center. The cartouche celebrates the Königsberg assentation of Frederick III of Brandenburg, who crowned himself King of Prussia on January 18, 1701. While Frederick, now the Frederick I of Prussia, had an uneventful reign, his grandson, Frederick the Great would eventually consolidate this region into Brandenburg-Prussia. This area was returned to a reconstituted Poland by the Treaty of Versailles following World War II. Price: Euro 475,-.
