Original Kupferstich auf vollem Textblatt. Vor- und Rückseite bedruckt. -- Blatt-Maße: ca. 36 x 22 cm. -- gut erhalten. || Original copper engraving; on the complete text page. Printed on recto and verso. -- in good condition. || This engraving comes from "Newe Welt und Americanische Historien.", a richly illustrated travel account by Johann Ludwig Gottfried. This particular piece is from the first edition, published in Frankfurt am Main in 1631 by the renowned published and engraver Matthaeus Merian. The work played a significant role in shaping European perceptions of the Americas, offering detailed descriptions of the landscapes, islands, kingdoms, provinces, and coastlines of the New World. Johann Ludwig Gottfried (1584-1633), a German publisher, took over the publishing house of Theodor de Bry and later issued this work. De Bry had originally obtained artwork and accounts from both French and English colonial expeditions in the late 16th century. Artists such as Jacques Le Moyne de Morgues and John White documented their experiences, and de Bry transformed their illustrations into copperplate engravings. Gottfried continued this legacy, incorporating these engravings along with new illustrations based on textual descriptionssometimes leading to the inclusion of fantastical elements like mermaids and dragons. Merian also contributed by re-engraving or replacing plates that had worn over time, while Gottfried oversaw the editing and translation. Scholar Borba de Moraes described this work as an "important and magnificent work" that remains highly sought after, rare, and valuable. Historian Michiel van Groesen further praised it in "America Abridged", by calling it "the apotheosis of the collection of voyages to the New World." || Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 10.

The Cosmographia by Sebastian Münster (1488 ? 1552) from 1544 is the earliest German description of the world. It had numerous editions in different languages including Latin, French (translated by François de Belleforest), Italian, English, and even Czech. The last German edition was published in 1628, long after his death. The Cosmographia was one of the most successful and popular books of the 16th century. It passed through 24 editions in 100 years. This success was due to the fascinating woodcuts (some by Hans Holbein the Younger, Urs Graf, Hans Rudolph Manuel Deutsch, and David Kandel). It was most important in reviving geography in 16th century Europe. Text in French, Size : 125x155 (mm), 4.875x6.125 (Inches), Hand Colored Excellent; very faint waterstain on upper right hand corner.

Condition: Fine. This first edition, early Americana engraving is from Arnoldus Montanus's De Nieuwe en Onbekende Weereld (Dutch) or The New and Unknown World (English). The work was published in Amsterdam in 1671 by Jacob Meurs. This being a first edition work is important as the impressions from the plates are strongest in this issue.The work is "a classic book on America and is much sought after by collectors of Americana" (Borba de Moraes). It contains one of the first views of New York: "without any doubt, the handsomest, and⦠the most agreeable view of Dutch New Yorkâ (Asher's Bibliographical Essay, p.23). The work was done at the height of European fascination with the New World. It featured illustrations of customs, festivals, occupations, religious rites and battles of the native Indians. It is considered one of the most interesting iconographic and cartographic sources of early Americana.Arnoldus Montanus was a Dutch writer, Protestant minister, and headmaster of a Latin School in Schoonhoven. He also published works on church history, theology, the Low Countries, and the people and culture of the Americas. Montanus never actually travelled to the New World, and thus the work has numerous errors and artistic liberties based upon the European perception of the people and animals of the Americas. It still served as the standard work on the Americas for years to come.The North American section contains notable versions of the Blaeu map of New England and New Netherlands as well as versions of the John Smith Virginia and Carolina maps. It also contains one of the first engraved views of New York (the very first, the Van der Donck view, appeared twenty years earlier). There is also a detailed map of Bermuda, views in Mexico, the Caribbean, and Brazil. The work is also noted for its portrait of Jan Maurits, Prince of Nassau.The full English title of the work is The New and Unknown World: or Description of America and the Southland, Containing the Origin of the Americans and South-landers, remarkable voyages thither, Quality of the Shores, Islands, Cities, Fortresses, Towns, Temples, Mountains, Sources, Rivers, Houses, the nature of Beasts, Trees, Plants and foreign Crops, Religion and Manners, Miraculous Occurrences, Old and New Wars: Adorned with Illustrations drawn from the life in America, and described by Arnoldus Montanus. --- The work is in very good to excellent condition overall. There may be a few minor imperfections or faint marks to be expected with age.

By: Sebastien MünsterDate: 1550 (circa) BaselDimensions: 11.75 x 14.8 inches (29.85 x 37.6 cm)This splendid birds-eye-view of Cusco is one of the earliest maps of European origin of the city to become available, during the Age of Discovery.Highly detailed, the map depicts the ancient city while there were yet architectural vestiges of its Incan empire builders, for whom it had been the primary seat of government. The map appears to be based on the work of Venetian cartographer Benedetto Bordone, whose map was published in several editions.The foundations of the ancient Incan temple of the sun, called Qoricancha by its builders, can be seen beneath a large Spanish-built church, indicating that the map was drawn following the Spanish conquest of the Incan nation. Before its near destruction during the conquest, Qoricancha had been one of the one of the most beautiful and most sacred of all temples of the Incan empire.Pizarro described its exterior as being studded with gold plates with the temple's environs including convents and dormitories for priests. He went on to say that he and his compatriots were taken by surprise by the beauty and sophistication of Cusco, marveling that the stonework of its many palaces and other major edifices surpassed that of contemporary Spanish work. As in many European cities, foundations of earlier buildings were preserved and used as a base for construction of more modern structures, and many are visible to this day. The city is shown surrounded by huge crenellated walls, with towers at each corner and at midway between them, with gates in each allowing entrance to the city. Small vignettes depict both scantily clad indigenous people and European-clad individuals, replete with armor and plumed helmets.Following the plundering and rebuilding of the city, it soon became an important mercantile center, as well as becoming the major center for Spanish colonization and spread of Christianity in the Andean world. Its prosperity was due to local agriculture, animal husbandry, and mining, with its prosperity thanks to agriculture, cattle raising and mining. Colonists, primarily from Spain, constructed churches and convents, a cathedral and archdiocese, and a university.The Verso: Map of Tenochtitlan and its Influence on Venetian ExplorersThe verso depicts Tenochtitlan, the miraculous (to the Spanish) city in the middle of a lake, now known as Mexico City, on one side and on the other is the title page for the map of Cusco. The earliest known Europeans to visit Tenochtitlan were enthralled by the city, comparing it to Venice, with some even saying it outshone its Italian counterpart with its magnificence.The comparison led Venetian explorers and travelers to become interested in the wealthy city and its treasures. Venetian cartographers were intrigued by the wealth and sophistication of the city and some of their early maps depict the city as it was before being virtually razed by Spanish conquistadores led by Hernán Cortés. This map depicts a combination of vestiges of the ancient city along with European-inspired architectural edifices which would have been built during the reconstruction of the city. Condition: Map is in B+ condition in its original, uncolored state with a few faint areas of foxing but no holes and one marginal tear that has been mended on the verso. Margins are full on all sides and the verso provides a clean map of Tenochtitlan.Inventory #126741200 West 35th Street, #425, Chicago, IL 60609| Phone: (312) 496 - 3622.
