Add to basketThe first edition of the famous Mercator-Hondius Atlas, which follows the arrangement of the complete Mercator atlas published by Gerard Mercator's son Rumold in 1595 as the Atlas sive cosmographicæ meditationes de fabrica mundi et fabricati figura. Gerard Mercator (1512-1594) coined the term "atlas" and published parts of his w…ork before passing away in 1594. Mercator is known mostly for his attempt to represent the spherical earth as accurately as possible on a flat sheet of paper, now called the Mercator projection.Around 1604, the Flemish engraver and cartographer Jodocus Hondius (1563-1612), together with the pioneering Amsterdam publisher and mapmaker Cornelis Claesz. (ca. 1551-1609), had obtained the copper plates of the Mercator atlas. They probably bought them directly from Gerard Mercator Jr., grandson of Gerard Mercator. Hondius and Claesz. planned a new edition of the Mercator's atlas, and to compete with rival Abraham Ortelius. Hondius expanded the atlas by combining Mercator's 107 original plates with 37 newly engraved maps from his Amsterdam workshop, and by adding a partly new text to the maps, written by Petrus Montanus (ca. 1560-ca. 1626), a Latin schoolmaster who helped Hondius on a regular basis with the translation, writing, and editing explanatory texts for several of Hondius' atlases. This resulted in the publication in 1606 of the present amazing, so-called Mercator-Hondius atlas, which soon became one of the most significant milestones in cartographic history, marking the first time a truly comprehensive world atlas was published under Gerard Mercator's name. While Mercator's original focus heavily favoured Europe, Hondius added highly detailed regional maps of Asia, Africa, and the Americas, successfully transforming it into a global masterwork. Many maps are showing the results of the latest discoveries. The Arctic map, for example, reflects a fascinating mix of myth and exploration, visualising the North Pole as a massive magnetic rock surrounded by a whirlpool, while updating the text to account for recent Dutch voyages around Spitsbergen. The atlas features also influential depictions of the New World, such as the maps of Florida, Carolina, Virginia, and New Spain (Mexico). Aesthetically speaking, Hondius brought the atlas to a unprecedented level by introducing beautifully executed water typography, formal calligraphy, and decorative borders that made Amsterdam the epicentre of 17th-century cartography. The atlas became so popular that already the next year a new edition had to be published, and by 1633 there were 6 Latin and 5 French editions of the Mercator-Hondius atlas. The engraved title page is printed from the old copper plate, but personifications of the continents are added. The preliminaries, except the dedications, are also copied and some verses on the new edition are added.Many maps more or less browned, some a bit soiled and stained (esp. pp, 99-102), small wormhole in the title page and following three leaves, very tightly (re-)bound, gold-tooling shows signs of wear. Some of the maps are misbound. Otherwise a magnificent copy of a remarkable atlas.l P. van der Krogt, Koeman's Atlantes Neerlandici. New ed., vol. 1, no. 1.101A (pp. 62-68): this copy is complete. Original gold- and blind-tooled calf, re-cased, the original leather pasted to the new boards. With a large blind-tooled centrepiece in a blind-tooled lozenge frame, within a blind-tooled rectangle frame, gold-tooled smaller and larger corner pieces and a gold-tooled floral frame along the edges of the boards, both boards show the same design. Further with the title lettered in gold on the spine, and red edges. With an engraved title page and 144 mostly double-page maps, each with a signature (E-7T) and with explanatory texts on the recto of the first and on the verso of the second fol. (the text pages on the rectos and versos of the maps are paginated 33-354). Pages: [16], 354, [12] pp. [+ 8 + 4 + 4 + 8 = 24 pp. for the ind.

[Full collation avaioable.] Wit…h two hand-colored engraved title-pages and 43 (Geographia: 26 of 28, Italia: 17 of 22) double-page hand-colored engraved maps integral with the text, Italia extra-illustrated with a double-page hand-colored engraved map "Europa ad magnae Europae Gerardi Mercatoris P. imitationem Rumoldi Mercatoris" (Duisberg, ca. 1595; the first state, without text verso). Bound in later (XVIIIc?) paste-paper-covered boards backed in vellum (re-backed, with the original back-strip laid down). Ink manuscript title to the front cover (ligatured): "librx eñrmi/ ~PTLs~" with the Trisagion (hymn) in Greek in four lines above. On the spine, the author, title and date in ink manuscript. All edges of the text-block speckled blue. Re-backed, with the original back-strip laid down. Rubbed and worn, with some soiling. Mild tanning, in some places moderate, with the odd spot of soiling or foxing. Lacking 2 maps in the Geographia and 5 maps in the Italia; extra-illustrated with a 1595 Rumold Mercator map of Europe. Pigment oxidation throughout, with resultant cracking at the spine of quire N (Africae Tabula IIII). Scattered peripheral tears. Worming to the lower margin of the first three and final three leaves, not affecting the text. The free edges of the final two leaves extended. A worn graphite gift inscription to the recto of the front free end-paper seemingly repeated in ink along the verso of the same leaf. Oval blind-stamp to a paster paper label at the head of the title-leaf, repeated in ink verso. Claudius Ptolemaeus (usually anglicized to Ptolemy) was a second-century philosopher living in Roman Alexandria in Egypt. No manuscripts his Geographike Hyphegesis (Geographical Guidance; in Latin this is usually rendered Geographicae enarrationis libri octo or "eight books of geographical explanation") survive from before the XIIIc, but some XIIIc examples survive with maps that bear some relation to those Ptolemy himself drew. It was crucial to explorers; Columbus expected to find the East Indies because of Ptolemy's calculations and assertions about longitude. As the world expanded beyond its ancient bounds, discoveries were integrated into the Ptolemaic maps, distinct with their trapezoidal frames. Gerardus Mercator (1512-1594) pioneered the projection that bears his name and established the recognizable modern world map. Called by Ortelius (to whom the Geographia is dedicated) the modern Ptolemy, he edited the text of the Geographia in 1576, and was able to "correct" maps -- i.e., to present a Ptolemaic rather than a modern conception of the three continents (Europe, Africa, Asia) -- to conform to the revised text. There is a particularly strong emphasis on the (ancient) mapping of Asia. The present example has unusually rich color, which has oxidized over the centuries to tan the cellulose of the paper, while keeping the vibrant oranges intact. Bound with the Geographia is the (eventual) fifth part of Mercator's Atlas -- the first book so-called (and meaning, roughly, "a book of maps published at the same size"), published in six parts from 1585 to 1595 -- published at Duisburg in 1589: Italy, "Sclavonia" (the lands of the (South) Slavs, i.e., modern Bosnia, Herzegovina, Croatia, Serbia, Slovenia etc.) and Greece. Although a "custom" combination of works, it's not uncommon to find individual parts of the eventual Atlas combined with Mercator's Ptolemy. It speaks, seemingly, to a particularly south-eastern European purchaser. Geographia: VD-16 P 5219; Italia: Van der Krogt/Koeman 1:002A.
