First Edition. in a contemporary armorial binding of olive morocco, triple filet border to both covers around central arms, gilt, the spine gilt in compartments, second compartment lettered in gilt, marbled endpapers, gilt edges, pink silk marker, with the early ownership inscription ?Ex Bibliotheca D. Crozat? and the arms of the duchesse de Gramont gilt on both covers. 8vo (160 x 100 mm), pp. [viii], 602 (ie, 604, pp. 334-335 repeated), [3], collating a4, A-PP8, title page engraved by Leon Gaultier, paper a little browned throughout, with some ink staining and light wear, A scarce classically-inspired ?roman galant? by the Poitiers-born soldier and novelist, Louis Moreau du Bail, and an early example of the genre. Du Bail?s prolific output, though not didactic, was intended as an inspirational and moral celebration of romantic love. About half of his thirteen known novels, including the present, have a classical inspiration, and many of these are notable for their strong heroines. In this novel, the heroine is modelled on the fictitious illegitimate daughter of King Henry III of France and tells the story of her two marriages, the betrayal by her second husband and her subsequent ruin, captivity and escape from execution. Not much is known about Du Bail, except that he was a soldier and a novelist: ?Un écuyer poitevin de confession catholique, né certainement avant 1600, qui connut la vie militaire et a captivité: telles sont les maigres indications que nous pouvons ramasser? (Alain Niderst). This is the sixth of his known thirteen novels, which were published between 1622 and 1646. ?[Son] inspiration est toujours élévée. Il veut porter le lecteur au repentir, à la pénitence, à la retraite? (Joseph Salvat in Dictionnaire des Lettres Françaises, XVII Siècle, 401). This is a stunning copy from the libraries of the marquis de Tugny and, later, the duchesse de Gramont, bibliophile and patron of the arts whose library of some 3,000 volumes was dispersed during the French Revolution after she was guillotined. ?En dehors d?éminentes qualités qui appartiennent à l?histoire, son goût pour les choses de l?art et le soin éclairé qu?elle apporta dans la composition de sa belle bibliothèque, la désignent encore à l?attention des curieux et des lettrés. Les livres de la ducesse de Gramont sont reliés simplement, mais avec une certaine élégance. Le soin avec lequel a été exécuté le corps d?ouvrage justifie l?empressement dont ils sont l?objet de la part des bilbliophiles et les prix quelquefois élevés qu?ils obtiennent? (Ernest Quentin-Bauchart). Provenance: 1. Joseph-Antoine Crozat, marquis de Tugny (1696-1751), this work no. 2426 in his catalogue and bearing his inscription, ?Ex Bibliotheca D. Crozat?, on the verso of the title-page. 2. Béatrix de Choiseul-Stainville, duchesse de Gramont (1730-1794), with her arms on the binding.

Skottowe Nov 8 1787" on verso of title page. With manuscript ownership inscription of "J. F. Mournan, 1st May 1887, Springmount Hallow" to sectional title page of Africa section. Freeman's, 1/21/2005, Lot 203. First edition. Pocket atlas published by François Halma, the maps reduced from Sanson's 1658 folio atlas, with Luyt's Tables Geographiques & Bion's l'Usage des Globes, featuring striking folding plates diagramming the workings of the celestial systems. Without the world map, the map of southern Germany, and the map of Madagascar. Born in Abbeville, a town in the Picardy region of France, in 1600, Sanson was the most noted French cartographer in modern history. Mapmaker to Louis XIV, King of France, Sanson endowed his maps with the most recent geographical information as well as the finest and sharpest engraving of the period. His "Cartes Generales de Toutes les Parties du Monde" was the most important single product of French commercial cartography of the seventeenth century. Sanson sparked a renaissance in geographical endeavor in his native country, which had not been a major player on the international cartographic stage since the great Oronce Finé in the sixteenth century. With this atlas, Sanson laid the foundations of French domination in map production, initiating the so-called "French school of cartography," a school that was unprecedented in its attention to precision and scientific detail and discarded much of the decorative embellishments of previous maps as irrelevant. From Sanson's time in the second half of the seventeenth century until the latter part of the eighteenth century, French geographical conceptions were more influential than those put forward by any other nation. With this landmark atlas, Sanson all but single-handedly caused the center of cartographic innovation to shift from Holland to France. Although this atlas is always listed under Nicolas Sanson, it is essentially Francois Halma's plagiarized pocket version of the Sanson atlas, reduced from Sanson's 1658 folio atlas, with the map divided into Continent groups. "François Halma was an editor, printer and publisher of theological, historical and geographical works. His output was large. He first established his business in Utrecht in 1674, then moved to Amsterdam and finally settled in Leeuwarden where he died in 1722. Among his works was an edition of Mercator's Ptolemy (1695) and a reduced-size edition of Sanson's large atlas under the new title 'Description De Tout L'Univers' [as here]" (Shirley, Printed Maps of the British Isles 1650-1750, p. 66).

2 sheets joined (sheet size 21 6/8 x 30 inches; 18 x 27 7/8 inches to the neat line), full margins showing the plate mark. A fine engraved detailed map of Europe, the title within a nicely ornamented Louis-XV-style cartouche upper right, scale within a small sober cartouche, the left part of the map is a kind of manual which gives some information on the scientific information the map provides in political geography, natural geography and astronomic geography; with original hand color in outline (spot on the upper middle margin, vertical fold marks, a little toned at the edges). A fine and very interesting political, natural and astronomical map of Europe. Gilles Robert de Vaugondy (1688-1766), also known as Le Sieur or Monsieur Robert, and his son, Didier Robert de Vaugondy (c.1723-1786), were leading mapmakers in France during the 18th century. In 1757, they published The 'Atlas Universel' in which they integrated older sources with more modern maps. This dialogue between old and new is also suitable for this map, as it is originally made by Nicholas Sanson (1600-1667), who was the founder of the French school of cartography.

XXVIII-864-32-93pp. Frontispicio grabado al cobre. Obra muy rara de este importante gramático y humanista. El Brocense tuvo en 1584 su primer encontronazo con la Inquisición, aunque esta vez fue exculpado. Su tremenda capacidad crítica y su inconformismo con la autoridad provocó que los censores tuviesen que restringir la circulación y divulgación de sus obras. Una década después de jubilarse, en 1595, comenzó un nuevo proceso inquisitorial interrumpido esta vez solamente por su muerte: falleció el 5 de diciembre de 1600, aislado en su casa a causa del arresto domiciliario que la Inquisición le había impuesto.

No Binding. Zustand: Very Good. Copperplate map (Image: 15 1/2 x 21 1/2 in.; 39.4 x 54.6 cm), engraved by Jean Somer, partially handcolored in outline, decorative cartouche in lower right corner. BINDING/CONDITION: Matted and framed, not examined out of frame. A VERY BRIGHT AND CRISP IMPRESSION OF THE FIRST LARGE-SCALE MAP TO PRESENT ALL FIVE GREAT LAKES IN A COMPARATIVELY ACCURATE CORRELATION. "This delineation would considerably influence the cartography of the region for over 100 years; it was not to be superseded until Guillaume de L'Isle's Carte du Canada, in 1703" (Burden). Sanson's transformative map shows the entire Great Lakes region and the St. Lawrence River basin in detail. It names "L. Erie, ou du Chat" as a recognizable and distinct lake for the first time; the name derives from the native name "Derie" which referred to the "panther-like qualities of the feared local native Indians" (Burden). The northern waters remain the same with the exception of Hudson Bay, which is depicted in more detail. Sanson drew on source information from the Jesuit missionaries who ventured westward after Champlain's death and published annual accounts, or "Relations," of their findings between 1632 and 1673. This included Jean Nicollet's discovery of Lake Michigan, "Lac des Puans," in 1634 and Father Paul Ragueneau's "Relation" of 1648 which describes his visit to Niagara Falls, three decades before Father Louis Hennepin's formal description of the cataracts. Sanson also made several improvements in his east coast delineation: Long Island is introduced with New Amsterdam in its correct position. The Delaware River is more accurately shown, with "N[ouvelle] Suède (the former Swedish colony of Fort Christina) at its mouth, the site of present-day Willmington. The borders of Virginia are defined but none of the English settlements are given.

Single sheet, float-mounted and framed (sheet size: 17 4/8 x 11 4/8 inches; framed size: 29 x 22 6/8 inches) Fine engraved map of Alaska with original hand-colour in full. This is the first printed map to show the area of Alaska, and a landmark in the mapping of the American north-west and California. Although printed on a separate sheet in the atlas, this map was intended to be contiguous with de Jode's map of North America to complete the coverage of North America in its entirety. This map reaches to the northwestern part of the American continent to the Strait of Anian, which divides North America from Asia. De Jode has adroitly placed two text cartouches to fill the space in the interior as a device to hide his lack of geographical knowledge, but the vignettes of Tartar-style figures and buildings, and accompanying text, reflect the contemporary view that the region was populated by migration from Asia. At the top of the map are four legendary islands believed to encircle the North Pole, and a strait running across the north of North America, apparently forming a navigable channel from Europe to Asia, the famous North-West Passage. Highly decorated with sea monsters and galleons, this map is appealing for both its beauty and its historical significance. Born in Nijmegen in 1509, Cornelis de Jode was a cartographer, engraver, printer and publisher based in Antwerp, then one of the major commercial capitals of Europe. Little is known of his early training or education, and it was not until well into his 30s, in 1547, that de Jode was admitted to the Guild of St. Luke and became a print seller. In 1550 he was licensed as a printer. He printed Jacopo Gastaldi's map of the world in 1555, Jacob van Deventer's map of Brabant in 1558, maps by Bartholomeus Musinus, Fernando Alvares Seco, and (before they became competitors) Abraham Ortelius's eight-sheet map of the world (1564).
