The original is preserved in the public library of Vienna and esteemed its greatest ornament. It is a wide map, about 24 feet long and 14 inches broad: the cities, rivers, etc., are pointed out by their names, and the roads and military routes are traced out by lines: it is supposed to have been made at Constantinople about A.D. 393.

The Atlas of Viscount Santarem is extraordinarily rare few copies contain more than forty to sixty maps, in consequence of the desultory and unequal manner in which the plates were produced-nearly all separately and with a varying number of impressions.

The above comprise all the contemporary chronicles relative to the Crusades and the History of the Christian Empire of Jerusalem.

The curious plans by Sanuto, which he presented to Pope John XXII and the Cardinals in 1324-25, after having travelled through various countries, one of them being a Map of the then known world, in a circular form, with Jerusalem as its centre-give this work a pecular interest in relation to the history of early geography.

28112 1478 Berlinghieri (Francesco) In questo volume si contengono SEPTE GIORNATE DELLA GEOGRAPHIA di Francesco Berlingeri, large folio, 31 MAPS ENGRAVED ON COPPER, very fine large copy, quite perfect, in red morocco super-extra, gilt edges, by Trautz-Bauzonnet, £42. Firenze, Nicolo Todescho (circa 1478-80) the same, large folio, wanting the map of Palestine, and the last leaf with the Register, bound in oaken boards, partly covered with hogskin, £12. 12s

28113

The maps afford curious indications, so far as they vary from the old Ptolemæan series, of the knowledge of Eastern geography possessed by Europeans in the fifteenth century.

Francesco Berlinghieri, a Florentine, contributed greatly to the study of Geography by this popular work in Italian verse. It bears no date, but must have been published about the same time as the Roman Ptolemy of 1478, as the Duke of Urbino, to whom it is dedicated, died in 1482. Indeed it is more than probable that the work of Berlinghieri is entitled to claim precedence before the Ptolemy (as the first collection of Maps printed from copperplates), since the two sets of engravings are very much alike, but the Roman book exhibits a very superior technical finish which evinces the improvement of a later hand. In some respects the Berlinghieri approximates nearer to geographical correctness. The added leaf of Register is mounted to the size of the book in the first of these two copies.

1490

The maps are from the identical plates used in the edition of 1478,-the first illustrated edition of Ptolemy's Geography, and also the first dated instance of maps engraved on copper. The work contains a double series of maps, firstly the reproduction of the old Greek ones which belong properly to the text, and next a set of modern maps which represent the geographical knowledge of the time, and which constitute the importance of the volume as the first dated General Atlas.

The first of these maps is one of the World marked "Insculptum est per Joannem Schnitzer de Armszheim." At the top of the eighth map, which represents North-West Europe, Greenland (Engronelant) is drawn as a large peninsula. This is the first map published on which GREENLAND is depicted.
