BLAEU, Johannes (1596-1673)
Theatrum Statuum Regiae Celsitudinis Sabaudiae Ducis, Pedemontii principis, ... pars prima, exhibens Pedemontium ... pars altera illustrans Sabaudiam. Amsterdam: heirs of Johannes Blaeu, 1682.
First edition of the Townbooks of Northern Italy, one of the greatest topographical works of the Baroque period. Blaeu originally planned a gigantic multi-volume atlas of the towns and monuments of Italy, but in the event, Blaeu only saw the three volumes relating to the Ecclesiastical States, Rome, and Naples and Sicily through the press, with the present two volumes on Piedmont and Savoy being published posthumously. Van der Krogt 43:311.1-2.

2 volumes, large folio (566 x 351mm). Latin text. Engraved allegorical frontispieces, arms of Emanuel II, 4 portraits of the Duchesse of Savoy and Emanuel II, double-page engraved genealogical table of the house of Savoy, 125 double-page engraved maps, plans and views, of which 10 folding, 9 single-page (plate II.17 bound at beginning of vol. I, very heavily browned throughout). Publisher’s vellum with yapp edges, panelled in gilt, edges gilt, green silk ties (only 2 green silk ties remaining, faint soiling and extremities rubbed). Provenance: old ink library classmarks on front pastedowns.
