BLAEU, Joan (1596-1673)
Novum ac magnum theatrum urbium Belgicae Foederate [-- Regiae.] Amsterdam : J. Blaeu, [1649].
Exemplaire en vélin de l'époque de l'atlas des Pays-Bas de Blaeu, illustré de 219 vues et plans gravés. Joan Blaeu répartit les cartes de son atlas en deux volumes : les villes de la République (vol. 1, Foederate) et les villes appartenant à l'Espagne (vol. 2, Regiae). "Of all the Blaeu atlases, the townbooks of the Netherlands are held in the highest esteem in the Netherlands. This is partly due to the fact that their composition is linked up with the struggle for independence from Spain of the Dutch Republic in the 17th Century. Bound up, by sentiment, with the most dramatic and heroic period of the shaping of the Dutch State it shows the proud and industrious cities of the North in their full splendor." Koeman, Bl 65-66.

2 vol. in-folio (486 x 285 mm), montés sur onglets. Troisième édition latine pour le vol. 1 (Foederate) et deuxième édition latine pour le vol. 2 (Regiae). 219 vues et plans gravés (sur 220, manque pl. 42 au vol. 2) dont 91 (sur 92) et 128. Titre gravé à chaque volume. Trois feuillets de privilège à chaque volume, dont ceux de Louis XIV et Philip II. Reliure hollandaise de l'époque : double encadrement de roulettes et filets dorés avec décor doré aux angles de l'encadrement central, pièce centrale ornée, dos lisse orné de filets, roulettes et fleurons dorés, tranches rouges.
Provenance : ex-libris manuscrit caviardé sur chaque titre -- Taverne de Renescure (ex-libris armorié, partiellement déchiré au vol. 1)
