Lot description

Folio: [12]-396-[26] pp, 92 (of 100) + 1 later pl. (pl. 44-47, 61, 73, 90, 91 missing; pl. 93 before 74, pl. 92 after 84; margins repaired and occ. waterstained, pp. 389-392 trimmed in upper margin).

Contemp. full calf, gilt decorated spine on 5 bands (rubbed).

1st edition of the Dutch translation by C. Kiliaan and P. Montanus. Blaeu used Cornelis Claesz.'s copperplates from the French 1609 ed., supplemented with some new ones. Not all of these last ones were already included in this 1612 copy. It misses the 4 unnumbered pl. of Amsterdam and Gouda, as well as Middelburg-Stadhuis, Dunkerque-2, Philippeville and Beaumont. Yet, it has the later historical map "Caerte van Zeeland gelyk dat gelegen was in 't jaer 1274" by M. Smallegange from the "Nieuwe Cronyk van Zeeland" (Middelburg, J. Meertens/Abraham van Someren, 1696).
Ref. Guicciardini illustratus 11.
