Ses œuvres majeures comme les « Lettres familières » et « The Caesars dix. » Son travail, maintenant, est considéré d'intérêt historique peu plus, mais son style de rédaction et contenu reflète les goûts de la Cour de Charles V, qui il avait écrit pour plus tard dans sa vie.

Condition: Very Good. Original Contemporary Hand Coloured Braun & Hogenberg Map of Amsterdam ________________________________ A very attractive and contemporary hand coloured first state map of the first view of Amsterdam still bright and rich in colour, from Braun & Hogenberg as part of their atlas of city views called 'Civitates Orbis Terrarum'. Braun & Hogenberg's view is based upon a plan of Amsterdam by Cornelis Antoniszoon (1544), showing Amsterdam with its medieval walls and formal defensive systems. The view illustrates the unique Dutch form of urban plan with the Amstel River dammed near its mouth and its flow controlled by channels to the sea with an outer harbor created from the downstream portion, and an inner harbor from the upstream portion. The dam, located at the center, also provided the central plaza for public buildings. Numerous ships and fishing boats fill the harbors, attesting to the increased trade and commerce that Amsterdam was beginning to experience when this plan was published. COMMENTARY BY BRAUN (on verso): "Holland is the most fertile part of the Netherlands. It is crossed by many waterways full of fish, which ensure that in the whole world there is no other landscape in which so many cities lie within such a confined area ... Amongst these, Amsterdam is the noblest ... It lies on the River Amstel, from which many canals lead into the city. About twice a year many ships arrive here from all over Europe, some 200 or 300 from the Netherlands, France, England, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Poland, Lithuania, Norway, Sweden and the other countries of … [Click Below for Full Description]

1544. I am limited to 12 photos on eBay, but I have many more photos on my website...just ask. "The more corrupt the state, the more numerous the laws." ― Tacitus, The Annals Cornelius Tacitus was a 1st-century Roman historian who is now remembered for his two major works - 'Annals' and 'Histories' - in which he examines the lives and political careers of important Roman emperors such as Tiberius, Nero, and Claudius. By many accounts, Tacitus is considered the greatest Roman historian, not only by the accuracy of his content, but through demonstrating the psychological nature of ancient Roman politics. 'Histories' is one of the first written accounts to discuss the Great Jewish Revolt, an account that openly records combative attitudes between Jews and other cultures. 'Annals' was Tacitus's final work and covers the era following the death of Caesar Augustus, including the reigns of Claudius, Caligula, and Nero. It is also the earliest known secular history to mention Jesus Christ in which Tacitus connects Nero to the persecution of early Christians. The first and only edition of this early Italian translation of Tacitus's most famous works. [Attributes: First Edition]

Bulino, 1544, monogrammato in lastra. Poco prima del 1520, alcuni giovani artisti della cerchia di Albercht Dürer presero a realizzare incisioni molto piccole che hanno sfidato lo spettatore con un mondo in miniatura, un mondo di nuovo soggetto laico e di interpretazioni non convenzionali di temi tradizionali. A causa delle ridotte dimensioni delle loro incisioni, questi artisti sono stati appellati a lungo, con il nome collettivo, e poco lusinghiero, di Piccoli Maestri di Norimberga. Il nucleo del gruppo consiste in tre artisti di Norimberga, Hans Sebald & Bartel Beham e Georg Pencz, e inoltre Jacob Bink da Colonia e Heinrich Aldegrever da Soest. La presente incisione proviene da una vecchia collezione in cui le opere erano conservate, come spesso accadeva, applicate in un album databile al XVIII secolo. Buona prova, impressa su carta vergata coeva, rifilate al rame, in buono stato di conservazione. Engraving, 1544, signed on plate. A good impression, printed on contemporary paper, trimmed to the platemar, in good conditions. Shortly before 1520, several young artists in the immediate circle of Albercht Dürer began making remarkably small engravings that challenged the viewer with a world in miniature; a world of new secular subject and of unconventional interpretations of traditional themes.

Antwerp, 1544. Woodcut, mm 190x274 (map) on a sheet 220x308One of the earliest obtainable world maps not based upon the works of Ptolemy and to show the outline for the entire New World, a scarce and interesting map on a truncated cordiform (heart-shaped) projection with explanatory text on wind heads in Latin and Dutch around. Based on a lost model by Gemma Frisius and published in Peter Apian's "Cosmographia .". Second version out of three very similar, being the first published in 1544; this second can easily be identified by the addition of names: The word Europa is now placed horizontally and the titles Angl and Scot appear against the island of Britain. South America is clearly recognisable but the northern part is shown as a narrow strip of land extending north-eastwards from Mexico and labelled "Baccalearum"- a reference to the important cod-fishing industry of the north-east coast that drew so many Europeans initially to the continent. The map is surrounded by a vividly engraved border of mythical figures, clouds and windheads, including three cadaverous wind heads representing the traditional plague-carrying winds of the south. There are a number of small drawings of animals and ships, and even a mermaid. The heart-shaped border of the map contains signs of the zodiac. Very good condition with original vertical folds, as issued Nr.cat: Cod 9818
