    Second state of Halma's pirated edition of Sanson's map of Japan Engraved map. Second state of the plate, first published in Halma's pirated edition of Sanson's 'L'Asie en plvsiers cartes nouvelles, et exactes;', as part of 'L'Europe; L'Asie; L'Amerique en Pluiers Cartes', 1683. A direct copy of Sanson's map of 1652, the only differences being the lack of a privilege and a date in the cartouche, the addition of the signature of the engraver, Antoine de Winter in the lower left corner. This issue is distinguished by the addition of mountains added in 'Isle de Corey' and 'Terre de Iesso'; and the 'Mer de Japan' above 'Oriental'. Francois Halma (1653-1722) set up his printing business in Utrecht in 1674, where he issued a number of pirated maps and atlases. In this instance, since Sanson was dead, Halma may have felt that there no harm and much profit to be gained from re-printing his work. The engraver, Antoine de Winter (c1652-1700) achieved some notoriety for plagiarizing Petter Gedda's charts of the Baltic Sea, selling them on to Loots and Doncker, for inclusion in their atlases, who were subsequently sued, and ordered to surrender the plates and pay a fine of 300 florins. Sanson originally credited "Caardin [sic], Varenius" and 'others' for his map. Generally, the geography follows that of Moreira/Blancus, only a small portion of the eastern coast of Korea is shown, without stating whether it is an island or not, and there is only a hint of Hokkaido in the far northeast corner with the place name Matzumay. Varenius, or Bernhard Varen (fl1622-1650) was a German physician, geographer and natural historian. He settled in Amsterdam, and was a friend of the Blaeu family. He published 'Descriptio regni Japonia' in 1649, and came to be known as 'the father of physical geography' (Hubbard). Sanson (1600-1667) was a French mapmaker. He supposedly began to make maps to supplement his study of history, and a map of Ancient Gaul made early in his career brought him to the attention of Cardinal Richelieu. This foothold in the French court allowed him to rise to the position of Geographe du Roi, teaching both Louis XIII and Louis XIV. Louis XIII even made him a counsellor of state. Sanson produced an atlas, 'Cartes Generales de Toutes les Parties du Monde', which contained important maps of the post roads and waterways of France. He also produced two major maps of North America: 'Amerique Septentrionale' (1650) was the first map to show the Great Lakes in a recognisable form,aided by Sanson's access to The Jesuit Relations, a collection of accounts by French missionaries to the area. The map was also drawn on a sinusoidal projection, which Sanson was the first to use. In 1656, he made 'Le Canada ou Nouvelle France', which showed the Great Lakes in greater detail, and included accurate representations of the Hudson Bay area, the Delaware and the Gulf of Saint Lawrence.After Sanson's death the business was carried on by his two surviving sons and grandson, in partnership with Hubert Jaillot. Sanson family members were revered among the foremost map makers in France for nearly a century. A leading exemplar of the French school of seventeenth-century cartography, Nicholas Sanson I is widely regarded as the founder of modern geography, and it is generally held that the so called "Great Age" of French cartography originated with his publications Hubbard 51.2.…

    First and only edition of a Dutch poem in praise of Château Agimont, now known as Château Neercanne, and the nearby city of Maastricht. It starts with a six-page verse dedication to Daniel Wolf, Baron van Dopff, who had the chateau rebuilt in Dutch Baroque architecture in 1698, followed by an acknowledgement in verse to the Maastricht city officials, and a four-page note to the reader. Included at the end as an appendix, is a Dutch translation of a Latin speech in praise of poetry. The double-page plates show the chateau with its large terrace gardens (and a ship sailing in the artificial lake), a panoramic view of the city of Maastricht, and the great stone-vaulted interior of the St. Pietersberg limestone quarry south of Maastricht. The chateau is built on a man-made terrace on the side of a hill (unique in the Netherlands) and remains, together with the quarry, a popular tourist attraction. The plate of the chateau, and probably the other illustrations, were drawn by Guillaume de Bruyn (1649-1719) and engraved by J. Karrewyn. The author, François Halma (1653-1722), was not only a poet but also a printer, publisher, and bookseller, and his engraved device includes a printing press (modestly giving centre stage to a view of Constantine's victory). On its publication in 1715, Halma's work received an enthusiastic 19-page report in Boekzaal der geleerde wereld, which gave particular attention to the typography.The spine is slightly rubbed, a scratch on the back board, with some loss of material. The leaves are lightly browned. Otherwise in very good condition.l Nijhoff-van Hattum 126; NNBW 6; STCN 157157407 (5 copies). Contemporary gold-tooled sprinkled polished calf, with a brown morocco title label on the spine, lettered in gold, gold-tooled board edges, blue decorate edges, marbled end papers. With the title page and dedication printed in red and black, an engraved printer's device on the title page, 3 engraved plates (2 folding, 1 double page), 4 decorated woodcut initials, and 2 woodcut tailpieces. Pages: [20], 60 pp.…

    Te Leeuwarden, François Halma, 1715. Un volume relié (20,5 x 29 cm) de 9 ff., 60 pages et 3 planches double-page dépliantes hors texte. Relire demi veau, dos à nerfs. Coiffe sup. absente, coiffe inférieure abimée, mais bon exemplaire et planches en très bel état de fraîcheur. Edition unique très rare de ce long poème élogieux sur Château Neercanne et la ville de Maastricht, écrit par le prolifique imprimeur, éditeur et libraire hollandais F. Halma. Illustré avec 3 belles planches montrant le château et ses grands jardins en terrasse, une grande vue panoramique de Maastricht et une vue de la carrière souterraine de calcaire sous le mont Saint-Pierre ("St. Pieters Bergh par Maastricht soo als die sich onder de Aarde vertoont"), montrant les deux carriers au travail et des touristes en pantalon fantaisie recevant une visite guidée dans la grotte artificielle. Le château de Neercanne (ou "d'Agimont", à ne pas confondre avec le château voisin d'Aigremont au sud-ouest de Liège) est situé juste au sud de Maastricht, et juste au nord des villages belges de Kanne (Limbourg) et Eben- Emael (Liège), sur un site déjà utilisé par les Romains. Le bâtiment actuel, de style baroque néerlandais, a été conçu et construit en 1698 par Daniël Wolf van Dopff (1650-1718), seigneur de Neercanne, gouverneur militaire de Maastricht et dédicataire du livre de Halma, comme résidence de campagne pour les fêtes et comme maison d'hôtes. Son invité le plus célèbre était le tsar russe Pierre le Grand en 1717, lors de son deuxième voyage aux Pays-Bas. Le château de Neercanne est le seul château en terrasse du Benelux. Livres.…

    Very good. Few marginal mends away from printed image, else excellent with a bold strike, attendant to the youth of the plate. Superb original color. Size 19.5 x 26.5 Inches. This is the rare first state of François Halma's c. 1699 separately-issued map of America. Its unusually large folio size, bold and sophisticated engraving, and rich original color set this map apart as one of the most beautiful late-17th-century maps of the Americas available to the collector. It dramatically presents some of the most notable geographic ideas of its era, including a prominent insular California after the Sanson model. The Great Lakes and the course of the Mississippi, as well as the rest of the American coastline, closely resembles that of Nicolas de Fer's 1699 L'Amerique . State-of-the-Art Geography That geography as presented here shows the Great Lakes and the Mississippi watershed based on state-of-the-art geography of the Académie Royale des Sciences, much of which can be ascribed to Jean Baptiste-Louis Franquelin's firsthand reports. The five Great Lakes are shown and Hudson's Bay is properly aligned. While their southern reaches are better oriented to the east coast than on the preceding Fr. Hennepin maps, the mapping of that coast is confused, with a greatly distorted Chesapeake Bay, an archaic John Smith-era treatment of Virginia, and a meager portioning of New England. The Mississippi, much like the Hennepin maps before it, is reasonably accurate despite the mouth being situated too far west (in the vicinity of Galveston Bay) and the placement of the Ohio River too far south. The map contains an early, reasonably accurate delineation of the Missouri River (Outanes R. on the map). Insular California: Luke Foxe / Sanson Model California is shown in insular form, one of the last instances of this prior to the correction of the myth in the early 18th-century. The version presented here is often erroneously referred to as the 'Sanson Model'. The term is derived from a 1635 map of the North American Arctic drawn by Luke Foxe. It was Foxe who invented many of the place names and added various bays and inlets to northern California. Among these are Talaaago, R. de Estiete, and the curious peninsula extending westward from the mainland, Agubela de Cato. Foxe's sources remain a mystery, but his cartography may be nothing more than fantasy. Nonetheless, Sanson embraced the model wholeheartedly. Although Sanson did not invent this form of insular California, his substantial influence did popularize it with subsequent cartographers. As is often the case with Insular California cartography, the Pacific Northwest is left ambiguous with the interior of Canada occupied by speculative lakes and rivers. In the American Southwest, the Rio Grande is shown flowing to the Gulf of Mexico (rather than having it empty into the Gulf of California in the frequent 17th-century conflation of this river with the Colorado). Historical Notation Halma's map preserves De Fer's many text annotations explaining specific geographic features and their history, among them the discovery of the Strait of Le Maire, discoveries of islands in the South Pacific, the 16th-century French exploration of the coasts of New France by Verrazzano, Aubert, and Cartier, and the long history of European fishing off the Grand Banks. A Magnificent Baroque Cartouche The title cartouche is founded on a plinth bearing the images of both Columbus and Vespucci. Before the plinth, a female Native American figure representing America brandishes a bow. Between her and the plinth lies a gruesome, severed head with an arrow through the neck; an alligator prowls the foreground whilst, in the background, a cannibalistic feast is being prepared. Publication History and Census The map was printed by François Halma, probably after 1699 although it is possible that it shares a source with the De Fer, in which case it is no earlier than 1696. It was masterfully composed by Jan Goeree, and superbly en. …

It dramatically presents some of the most notable geographic innovations of its era, including early theories of the nature of the strait separating Asia and America, the growing European understanding of Siberian geography, and developments in the continued European confusion regarding the nature of Korea, Japan, and the eastern coasts of Asia. Although not a focus, the map also shows a key development in the understanding of African geography: the placement of Lake Tana as the source of the Blue Nile, and the separation of the River Nile from Lakes Zaire and Zaflan - which since Ptolemy had been assumed to be the source of the great river. De Fer's Precedent The overwhelming weight of Halma's geographical information is drawn from Nicolas De Fer's monumental Asie, divisee selon l'etendue de ses principales parties , a 1696 wall map of the continent engraved in Paris. De Fer's distinctive presentation of the Indian subcontinent, the Caspian Sea, and his reliance upon Nicolaes Witsen's groundbreaking Siberian geography are all presented here. The two inset maps in the upper right, showing alternative theories of northeast Chinese and Siberian geography are based on the Jesuit reports of Martini and Verbiest, are also derived (in reduced and simplified form) from the De Fer. Japan, Korea and the Company Islands Halma diverges sharply from De Fer in his treatment of the Far East from the Equator to the 55th parallel north: Japan, Korea and the region later be identified as the Kuril Islands. The De Fer wall map shows a peninsular Korea, and extends the coastline from Korea sharply to the east-north-east, accompanied with the note that 'all this coast as well as Japan are drawn from Portuguese maps very different from ours.' De Fer's map shows a peculiarly elongated Japan with an island of 'Ieso' roughly corresponding with Hokkaido. Halma replaces all of this: in lieu of the long, speculative coastline with a tentative depiction of a Terra de Yesso , Staten Island (Kunashir), and Compagnies Land (Iturup). Yesso, here a proto-Sakhalin Island, was often shown as a peninsula attached to mainland Asia, but here is depicted as an incomplete island separated from Asia by a 'Fret. Esoni' (Strait of Yesso.) Yesso is separated from the inflated Compagnies Land by Staten Island, and the Strait of De Vries. The first inset in the upper right shows this same region, but depicting Yesso in its more conventional peninsular form. De Fer himself appears to have been uncertain enough of his own geography to provide the inset. Halma's Japan appears to draw partially from De Fer's toponomy - the place names 'Osacco,' 'Tanura,' and 'Yuoqui' appear on both maps. The shape of Japan here does not resemble De Fer's, however; it is possible that it may be a throwback to Blaeu's Japan, at least in terms of the eastern coastline. Taken as a whole, Halma's presentation of this area appears to be a unique amalgam of sources. A State of the Art Siberia The whole of the Asian Northeast -everything extending north and east from the Caspian Sea - is here derived from the 1690 map of Nicolaes Witsen, the first European with access to Russian sources for these remote regions. It is perhaps the paucity of data Witsen provides for the Pacific Coast south of the 50th parallel, that encourages the broad speculation on the present map. The Ptolemaic Lakes of Africa Like most maps of the 17th century, the maps of the Sanson-Du Val lineage present the two great lakes of Zaire and Zaflan as the sources.…
