Hardcover. Condition: Near fine. First. Oxford: [Oxford University Press] "e Theatro Sheldoniano," 1675. First edition. Folio (16 13/16" x 12 9/16", 427mm x 294mm): 5 preliminary engraved pages (title-page, dedication, to the reader, mezzotint portrait of James Butler (2nd Duke of Ormonde), privilege) and 40 engraved double-page engravings (with pl. 27, Christ Church, folding), and an engraved index. Inserted portrait by J. Smith after Godfrey Kneller. Bound in contemporary russet morocco. On the boards, a double gilt fillet border surrounding two panels with gilt corner ornaments. On the spine, six raised bands. Panels gilt. Title to the second panel. Gilt rolls to the edges of the boards. All edges of the text-block gilt. Spine sunned. Some bumps and rubbing to the fore-corners and the spine. Some light tanning to the extremities of the text-block; otherwise an unusually clean and bright copy. Four bookplates to the front paste-down: armorial bookplate of Sir Thomas Hare, Baronet of Stow Hall, in Norfolk (plate dated 1734); armorial bookplate of Syston Park (i.e., Sir John Thorold, Bt.); Shenley Grange bookplate of John Charrington; Lloyd Kenyon. With pencil sketches: a bowed head to the front paste-down and a figure swinging an axe at an ox as well as a pistol (?) on the recto of the front paste-down. Acquisition note in pencil at the upper edge of the front paste-down. David Loggan (1634-1692) was born in GdaÅsk (Danzig), where he studied under Willem Hondius, who was royal engraver to Ladislaus IV of Poland. Loggan emigrated to London in the 1650's, married an Englishwoman in 1663 and moved to Oxfordshire in 1665 to avoid the Great Plague. His proximity to the University of Oxford brought him to be appointed as engraver to the burgeoning Press, then housed in the Sheldonian Theatre, in 1669. Over the next six years, Loggan drew and engraved the colleges and halls, the libraries and other administrative buildings of Oxford (plus one of Winchester College, which was founded by William Wykeham and connected to New College). The book of illustrations became a natural companion to Anthony (à) Wood's 1674 Historia et antiquitates Univ. Oxon., which Dr. John Fell, Dean of Christ Church and Curator of the OUP, would distribute with the Oxonia Illustrata as a boastful prospectus of the thriving Restoration University. (The mezzotint portrait of the Duke of Ormonde, who was at Christ Church, is sometimes found inserted in copies but can only date from 1688, the year in which he inherited the Dukedom.) Loggan, ever enterprising, then moved to Cambridge, where he would prepare the pendant Cantabrigia Illustrata (1690, in which year he was made engraver to that University). The present volume boasts a distinguished provenance. The first owner who left his mark was Sir Thomas Hare, 5th Baronet (of Stow Bardolph), who was educated at Oriel College. Hare was a Member of Parliament for Truro. The next possessor was Sir John Thorold, 9th Baronet of Marston (Hertford College), one of the great English bibliomanes along with Beckford and Roxburghe. His sale ("Syston Park," 1884) was one of the great XIXc bibliophilic monuments, though the present item is not in the catalogue. John Charrington (1856-1939, whose Shenley Grange bookplate was printed by the Kelmscott Press) sold coal, but is perhaps better known as honorary Keeper of Prints at the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge. Since this volume traveled with a companion Cantabrigia Illustrata from the time of Sir Thomas Hare, perhaps the present work was vestigial. Charrington's major bequest of prints and especially mezzotints came to be housed in the Charrington Print Room at the Fitzwilliam. The present item was lot 362 in his library sale. Lloyd Tyrell-Kenyon, 5th Baron Kenyon (1917-1993) was also a Cambridge man (Magdalene College). Kenyon distinguished himself in the field of museums and collections, eventually becoming chairman of the National Portrait Gallery. ESTC R5725; Madan III.3035.

Hardcover. Condition: Very good. First. THE GORDON DUFF COPY. Oxford: [Oxford University Press] "e Theatro Sheldoniano," 1675. First edition. Folio (16 7/8" x 11 5/8", 431mm x 295mm): binder's blank, 5 preliminary engraved pages (title-page (London imprint), title-page, dedication, privilege, to the reader) and 40 engraved double-page engravings (with pl. 27, Christ Church, folding), and an engraved index. Bound in contemporary laced vellum over boards. Title, author and date in ink manuscript to spine (apparently in the hand of E. Gordon Duff). Binding generally soiled, with some paper labels (repairs?) to the upper spine-edge of each board. Front hinge starting at the bottom edge, with loss to the tailpiece. Booksellers' notes in pencil to the front paste-down, with some earlier shelfmarking in ink. Sanguine graphite notation to the recto of the second free end-paper. Pencil numeration to the verso of each plate (with some errors corrected). Edges of the plates tanned, some chipped and the occasional closed tear. Some hinges (especially those of the folding plate of Christ Church) repaired or guards renewed. In all, a solid copy with an excellent provenance. David Loggan (1634-1692) was born in GdaÅsk (Danzig), where he studied under Willem Hondius, who was royal engraver to Ladislaus IV of Poland. Loggan emigrated to London in the 1650's, married an Englishwoman in 1663 and moved to Oxfordshire in 1665 to avoid the Great Plague. His proximity to the University of Oxford brought him to be appointed as engraver to the burgeoning Press, then housed in the Sheldonian Theatre, in 1669. Over the next six years, Loggan drew and engraved the colleges and halls, the libraries and other administrative buildings of Oxford (plus one of Winchester College, which was founded by William Wykeham and connected to New College). The book of illustrations became a natural companion to Anthony (à) Wood's 1674 Historia et antiquitates Univ. Oxon., which Dr. John Fell, Dean of Christ Church (thus explaining the extra-large plate) and Curator of the OUP, would distribute with the Oxonia Illustrata as a boastful prospectus of the thriving Restoration University. Loggan, ever enterprising, then moved to Cambridge, where he would prepare the pendant Cantabrigia Illustrata (1690, in which year he was made engraver to that University). The present copy came to be owned, long after its publication, by another straddler of the two Universities, (Edward) Gordon Duff (1861-1924). Duff, a scholar of early English printing, was at Wadham College, Oxford before becoming Sandars Reader (thrice: 1898, 1903, 1911) in Bibliography at Cambridge. Duff endowed prizes in bibliography at both universities, which remain the pinnacle of achievement in the field. Duff also prepared the first catalogue of the John Rylands collection, the matchless collection that would go on to be integrated into the University of Manchester. The present item was lot 523 in the second portion his sale (Sotheby and Co., 17 March 1925). (The Duff sale catalogue does not mention the additional title-page (from the [1700?] edition, ESTC R188461), suggesting that it was perhaps inserted by a later seller or owner.)

Condition: Fine. This remarkable celestial engraving is from John Seller & John Senex's "Stelleri Zodiacus Stellatus". The work charted Edmund Halley's southern hemisphere stars and visualized the new coordinates of John Flamsteed. The work was published in London between 1675 and 1721 by Senex et. al. --- It is a rare English astronomy chart from the cartographers, John Seller and John Senex. The original work had four charts from Seller including two of the Northern hemisphere, one of the Southern hemisphere, and a zodiac map. The zodiac map would be "the first published zodiac" described as âbeing very useful, at all times, to find out the places of the Planets; wherein may be seen their daily motion, and their appulses to the Fixed stars. Accurately laid down by the said Mr. Edmund Halley.â (Warner, p. 233, no. 3) The work also included four charts from Senex's shop, including two of the Northern and two of the Southern skies which were the work of John Flamsteed. âThrough the charts and globes of Senex ⦠the Halley/Flamsteed catalog was widely available." (Warner, p. 239) --- John Flamsteed who had been tasked with âdragging positional astronomy into the seventeenth century, of bringing it abreast of the new descriptive astronomy to which the telescope has thus far been almost exclusively applied.â (DSB, vol. 5&6, p. 23) Flamsteed's observations contributed to the known number of northern stars increasing by 2000. âFlamsteedâs catalogue, developed from telescopic observations, was the first to include seventh-magnitude stars [and] Senexâs maps, based on Flamsteedâs catalogues, were the first depicting these telescopic stars ⦠The positions of novas (i.e., new and variable stars) and nebulas on Senexâs maps were derived from Halleyâs two review articles published in Philosophical Transactions in 1715 and 1716. Thus the north equatorial map shows four new stars and two telescopic nebulas.â (Warner, p. 242) --- Provenance: Bookplate of Macclesfield Library. George Parker, the 2nd Earl of Macclesfield, was also an astronomer that entered the Royal Society in 1722 just as Senex would be publishing the Halley and Flamsteed charts. --- The work is in good to very good condition overall. There may be a few minor edge mends to the charts. There may be some minor worming. There may be some marginal soiling from handling. Each chart from the work has the original green marker threads intact. There may be a few minor imperfections to be expected with age. Please review the image carefully for condition and contact us with any questions. --- Paper Size ~ 28" by 36".
