Very good. Light wear along original centerfold. Mounted on contemporary paper. Original color. Size 18.5 x 21.5 Inches. This is a rare first-state example of Johann Baptist Homann's c. 1707 map of northern Italy, documenting the seesawing battle for the region during the War of the Spanish Succession (1701 - 1714). As with several other Homann maps prepared during the war, it proudly champions the Habsburg cause against their French-Bourbon enemies. A Closer Look Coverage includes the cities and towns of the Po River Basin and the alpine region to the north, as far as Grisons and Trento. Aside from settlements, mountains, rivers, lakes, canals, roads, and fortifications are documented in remarkable detail. Boundaries between duchies, bishoprics, republics, and other territories are traced in hand-color outline, with the all-important Duchy of Milan color-shaded. A legend at bottom includes symbols referring to the ongoing conflict, such as sites where the armies camped in addition to battlefields. The locations of battles at Chiari, Cremona, Luzzara, Cassano, and Castiglione, among others, are marked with crossed swords. However, the most obviously marked battle site, just south of Milan, refers not to a recent battle but one nearly two centuries earlier, the 1525 Battle of Pavia, which took place in the Visconti Park belonging to the rulers of Pavia. The battle was part of the Italian Wars of the 1520s, which were also fought between the Habsburgs and the French monarchy, and which also resulted in a Habsburg victory. An elaborate cartouche appears at bottom-right, with figures likely meant to represent the duchies of Milan, Savoy, and Mantua. Above the title is an eagle standing atop a globe, surrounded by the text 'tandem bona causa triumphat' (a good cause triumphs in the end). A figure at left beckons to a representation of the Battle of Cremona, where a surprise attack by Habsburg forces captured the French commander, the Duke of Villeroy. One of the figures at right says to the other 'Quae sunt Caesaris, Caesari' (Render unto Caesar), while the latter holds a map of Mantua, with a reference to Virgil's Eclogue 1 (Virgil was from Mantua and the poem has themes of justice in the aftermath of war). The War of the Spanish Succession (1701 - 1714) As its name indicates, the War of the Spanish Succession resulted when the childless Spanish Habsburg King Charles II died in 1700. Afterward, rival claimants aimed to ascend the throne, with the young Bourbon Philip of Anjou (grandson of Louis XIV) being proclaimed King of Spain on November 1, 1700. This presented a direct threat to the balance of power in Europe as Philip was also likely to eventually become king of France, thus raising the possibility of unifying Europe's two largest and most powerful Catholic kingdoms. As a result, the Habsburg Archduke Charles, who also claimed the right to the Spanish Crown, gained considerable support from other European powers wary of a Spanish-French union. The Bourbon and Habsburg-aligned forces engaged in an epic conflict that took place across much of western Europe and even the New World (as Queen Anne's War). Much of the fighting took place along the Rhine, especially in the Low Countries, while the Austrians were also bedeviled by a French-backed rebellion in Hungary (Rákóczi's War of Independence). However, the earliest clashes took place in northern Italy, involving the Duchies of Savoy, Milan, and Mantua (Mantova), and continued until 1707. The Habsburg General, Eugene Duke of Savoy (who was actually born to a well-connected family in Paris and only left to join the Habsburg army because his was snubbed by Louis XIV), emerged as one of the war's most effective commanders. He crossed the Alps with an army of 30,000 and won a string of victories in 1701 and early 1702. But the French reinforced their armies, appointed an equally competent commander (Louis Joseph, Duke of Vendôme), and counter-attacked to gain control of much o. Signed by Author(s).

Good. Closed centerfold split extending from bottom roughly 5 inches into page. Repaired and stabilized on verso. Laid down contemporaneous paper, likely by 18th century binder. Minor border soiling. Size 20.5 x 23.5 Inches. This is a c. 1710 Johann Baptist Homann map of southern Germany, Austria, and environs, produced for his Neuer Atlas . It is essentially wartime propaganda, celebrating the victories of the Habsburgs and their allies in the War of the Spanish Succession and supporting the Holy Roman Emperor Joseph I (r. 1705 - 1711). A Closer Look Coverage embraces from Mainz, Heidelberg, Nurnberg (Homann's hometown), and Prague in the north to Milan, Venice, and Istria in the south, and from Strasburg and Basel in the west to Vienna and Bratislava (Pressburg) in the east. Color-shading indicates the region's various kingdoms, principalities, etc., including the Republic of Venice. Bavaria, prominent near the center, was initially aligned with Bourbon France against the Habsburgs but was forced to leave the conflict following a crushing defeat at the Battle of Blenheim in 1704. Various cities in southern Germany (here as Swabia / Svevia) appear as exclaves from the surrounding lands; at least some of these were besieged during the conflict, likely the source for their being so designated. Evidence of the ongoing War of the Spanish Succession (1701 - 1714, discussed below) is everywhere. The elaborate cartouche at the top presents the Habsburg Holy Roman Emperor Joseph I, to whom the map is dedicated, with a retinue of generals meant to represent the commanders of the Habsburg-led Grand Alliance, including Prince Eugene of Savoy and John Churchill, the English Duke of Marlborough (ancestor of Prime Minister Winston Churchill), two of the greatest military commanders of their time. The figure bowing to the emperor is likely Prince Eugene of Savoy. Behind him, generals hold maps of battlefields along the Rhine, in northern Italy, and in the Adriatic. (Text at the bottom of each identifies the commanders of the battles - the Duke of Baden, the Duke Eugene of Savoy, and so on - and it is possible that the figures are meant to represent the victor of each battle, meaning the third figure from Joseph would be Eugene of Savoy). The attendant and horse behind them are ready to carry Joseph to the battlefield in the distance, presumed to be the Siege of Landau (1702), when Joseph was still 'just' an archduke, the only military campaign in which he ever directly participated. In the Adriatic, there is a fleet, and an accompanying note explains that it delivered supplies to Grand Alliance forces in northern Italy. The legend at the bottom right includes a symbol denoting the location of battles. However, these appear to be earlier battles, such as the Sack of Brescia in 1512, rather than contemporary ones. Generals or Emperor? This map has a contentious relationship with a highly similar and even rarer contemporary work, Pieter Schenk's 'Invictissimis Heroibus Duci Marleborough, Principibus Eugenio Sabaudo, et Hassiae-Casselio' While Homann's map is generally agreed to have been engraved in 1705, it is unclear if Schenk's map came before or after (most sources say after, in 1706). In any event, Schenk replaces Joseph with his father, Leopold I (who was likely already dead when the map was printed), and shifts the arrangement of figures in order to more clearly identify and glorify the generals of the Grand Alliance, and particularly the Duke of Marlborough. Other elements of the cartouche are changed or rearranged, and one of the maps is swapped with a map focusing specifically on the Battle of Blenheim. Schenk's motivations in doing so are unclear - perhaps he was trying to capitalize on the good fortunes of the Alliance to sell maps - but his apparent snub of Joseph I is suggestive of some other motive.

Very good. Mounted on contemporary paper. Repaired centerfold split. Printer's crease in upper left corner. Light pencil annotations. Size 19.25 x 22.25 Inches. An example of Johann Baptist Homann's c. 1710 map of Spain and Portugal, which appeared in his Neuer Atlas . The map, and particularly the powerful illustrations at the bottom-right, refer to the ongoing War of the Spanish Succession (1701 - 1714), a major crisis dividing Europe at the time. A Closer Look Geographic coverage ranges from southern France to northern Africa (Morocco and Algeria), taking in Iberia and the Balearic Islands (exaggerated somewhat in size, as is the minuscule Alborán Island). The constituent kingdoms and territories of the Spanish Empire are outlined and color-shaded for easy distinction. Cities and towns, roads, mountains, waterways, and coastal features are documented with Homann's characteristic fastidiousness. Battleships and other striking illustrations appear at the bottom right, referencing the War of the Spanish Succession. Though perhaps not clear from the illustration itself, the text under the title makes clear that the troops are being dispatched across the sea by the Archduke and future Holy Roman Emperor Charles III (1685 - 1740, though known to history as Charles IV, at the time, at least among his supporters, he was known as Charles III, his being the intended Habsburg successor to the recently-deceased Charles II). The War of the Spanish Succession (1701 - 1714) The War of the Spanish Succession began in 1700 when childless Spanish Habsburg King Charles II died. Rival claimants vied for the vacant throne, with the young Bourbon, Philip of Anjou (grandson of Louis XIV of France), proclaimed King of Spain on November 1, 1700. Philip's ascension threatened the balance of power in Europe, as he was also likely to become king of France, potentially unifying Europe's powerful Catholic kingdoms. As a result, the Habsburg Archduke Charles, who also had a claim to the Spanish crown, gained support from European powers wary of a Spanish-French union. Bourbon and Habsburg-aligned forces engaged in a epic drawn-out conflict across much of western Europe and the New World (Queen Anne's War). The war saw alliances shift, especially when the Holy Roman Emperor Joseph I died in 1711 and was succeeded by Archduke Charles, presenting a new Habsburg threat of a European superpower. In the Peace of Utrecht, signed in 1713, Philip was granted the Spanish crown but renounced claimes to the French throne, while Charles remained the Holy Roman Emperor. The Bourbon monarchies were weakened by the conflict, losing territory in Italy and Gibraltar to the British, while the Habsburgs gained territory and strengthened their positions in Hungary and the Netherlands. Britain is generally seen as the main beneficiary of the conflict, as it was not badly impacted by the mostly-continental war. With the Dutch suffering both physical and financial costs, the door was open for Britain to become the world's dominant maritime power. Publication History and Census This map was prepared by Johann Baptist Homann for the 1710 edition of his Neuer Atlas . Homann produced several distinct maps of Iberia, each in multiple states, in the late 17th and early 18th century, beginning with his engraving of 'Novissima Regnorum Hispaniae et Portugalliae Tabula,' issued by David Funck. The present edition of his Iberia map is the most decorative and dramatic due to the illustrations referring to the ongoing war. After the conflict concluded, the martial references were replaced with pacific ones. After 1720 ('Regnorum Hispaniae et Portugalliae Tabula Generalis'), the entire map was reworked (for comparison, see his 1730 issue, previously sold by us: Hispania-homann-1730). The present example differs from the somewhat more common 'Regnorum Hispaniae et Portugalliae Tabula Generalis' in that it lacks the Regnorum and Tabula Generalis in the title and some other obvious difference.

Very good. Repaired centerfold separation. Mounted on contemporary paper. Size 19.25 x 22.25 Inches. An example of Johann Baptist Homann's c. 1710 map of Portugal and Portuguese Brazil, produced for his Neuer Atlas . It reflects the Portuguese presence in South America and the kingdom's delicate position during the War of the Spanish Succession (1701 - 1714). A Closer Look The Kingdom of Portugal is illustrated divided into its historical provinces, along with neighboring regions of Spain. Cities, towns, roads, waterways, mountains, coastal features (including Gibraltar at the bottom, extending into the border), islands, and more are traced. The ships to the west of Galicia refer to the British-Dutch victory at the Battle of Vigo Bay in 1702. The fleet further south represents the arrival of Archduke Charles in Lisbon in February-March 1704. A finely-engraved cartouche with mythological figures (Neptune, mermaids), cherubs, and the Portuguese coat of arms appears at center-left. In the lower left, an inset map details the Portuguese Empire in Brazil. A text box below the title discusses the extent of the Portuguese empire, listing colonies on four continents. At left is a large inset map of Brazil ('Regnum Brasiliae') divided into its captaincies; these were granted to Portuguese noblemen in the years following the Portuguese conquest of the Brazilian coast to encourage migration to the New World. This system was successful in Madeira, the Azores, and other Portuguese colonies in the Atlantic, but was generally unsuccessful in Brazil. Gradually, the captaincies were returned to the Crown and, by the mid-18th century, were reorganized as provinces.). The War of the Spanish Succession (1701 - 1714) The War of the Spanish Succession began in 1700 when childless Spanish Habsburg King Charles II died. Rival claimants vied for the vacant throne, with the young Bourbon, Philip of Anjou (grandson of Louis XIV of France), proclaimed King of Spain on November 1, 1700.

Britain is generally seen as the main beneficiary of the conflict, as it was not badly impacted by the mostly-continental war. With the Dutch suffering both physical and financial costs, the door was open for Britain to become the world's dominant maritime power. Portugal's role in the war, like Britain's, was ambiguous. Initially siding with Philip of Anjou, the Portuguese King Pedro II (r. 1683 - 1706) was persuaded to switch alliances, supporting the 1702 Habsburg-aligned 'Grand Alliance'. With the Habsburg armies tied down in Italy, the Netherlands, and Hungary, it fell to the British, Dutch, and Portuguese to attack Spain itself. They captured Madrid in 1706 and proclaimed Archduke Charles King of Spain (Charles III). Nonetheless, holding Spain was more difficult than conquering it, and with Britain securing control of the coastlines and sea lanes - its primary goal in the conflict - there was limited interest in active occupation.
