Lot 128 | Isola di Rodi; Regno di Negroponte, Venice, 1688
Estimate value
£ 1 500 – 2 500
Two works on Rhodes and Negroponte, 1688, comprising:

Isola di Rodi geografica-storica, antica, e moderna. Venice, 1688, FIRST EDITION, volume 1 (all published), 8vo (162 x 100mm.), engraved frontispiece, arms of the dedicatee Cardinal Panfilio, and 16 engraved plates and maps, contemporary vellum, [cf. Atabey 289; Blackmer 411 (both second editions)]

Regno di Negroponte colle provincie, et isole adiacenti... Tomo II dell'arcipelago. [No place or publisher, c.1688], small 8vo, engraved frontispiece, title, and plate of arms, 8 engraved plates, contemporary vellum

The Isola di Rodi is generally thought to have been intended as the first of a series of works on the islands. Most authorities state that only one volume was published, but it seems clear that the second work in this lot was intended as another volume in the series.
