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

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”.

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...Category
