Franz Hogenberg
Tangiaria (Tanger), Map from "Civitates Orbis Terrarum"-by F. Hogenberg - 1575

1575

About the Item

Braun G. and Hogenberg F., Tingis, or Tangier, from the collection "Civitates Orbis Terrarum", Cologne, T. Graminaeus, 1572-1617. Image dimensions: 18.5 x 24 cm; dimensions: 21.5 x 28 cm. Very fine B/W aquatint showing a view from the sea of Tangier. The engraving exalts the fortifications of the city, under the Portuguese domination until 1580, and the commercial role of the Moroccan port. Good conditions, with some little holes on the left margin. The “Civitates Orbis Terrarum” (Atlas of Cities of the World) was the second oldest printed atlas in the history of world cartography and the first atlas totally dedicated to topographical views. The first volume of this collection was published at Cologne in 1572; the others following in 1575, 1581, 1588 and 1598. The sixth and final volume appeared in 1617, just before the extensive devastation wreaked by the Thirty Years’War. “The most original and magnificent of all city-atlases, which drew on the work of accomplished topographical artists; and…reproduced it in pictorial compositions of great charm and individuality”. R.A.Skelton This artwork is shipped from Italy. Under existing legislation, any artwork in Italy created over 70 years ago by an artist who has died requires a licence for export regardless of the work’s market price. The shipping may require additional handling days to require the licence according to the final destination of the artwork.

  • La neige à Paris (Snow in Paris) - Etching by F. H. Buhot - 1879
    By Félix Hilaire Buhot
    Located in Roma, IT
    Wonderful etching, aquatint, drypoint, and wheel on laid ivory colored paper. Signed inside out on plate on the lower margin at the center. Each image of the composition is hand-titled on the plate on lower margins. Fourth state on nine. Edition of the “L’Art. Excellent conditions, including ivory colored cardboard passe-partout (cm 33.5 x 49). The print has been given the titles of “L’Hiver à Paris “ or “ La Neige à Paris”. The modern artwork represents the rigorous winter of 1879 with Arctic temperatures and vast quantities of snow covered the Parisian streets. Reference: B.G. I28 The present print, one of his best known, exemplifies these preoccupations. The published version appeared in the journal L'Art (n° 314) in January 1881. As Bourcard clearly states "There were numerous trial proofs pulled and an extraordinary variety of printings in the various impressions of this plate. There exist a few rare artist's proofs of the state before the words: L'Art, the number 25, L'Hiver de 1879 à Paris." Félix Hilaire Buhot...
