In den WarenkorbPrint. Zustand: Near Fine. Matted and ready for framing. Untrimmed. An exceptional example of a scarce print. A 7 x 9 3/4 sheet professionally matted down to 4 3/4 x 6 3/4 (mat measures 8 1/2 x 10 5/8). Beautiful modern hand coloring added. Labeled 20 in the upper right-hand corner. The print shows a fortification positioned on…the north side of a natural waterway, with a small fortification on the opposite side as well. A bridge links the main fortification to the opposite shore, and there appears to be an area for entry by boat along the south wall. This fortress is unique in being completely surrounded by water - the river water acts as a moat between the inner and outer curtains, and also as a moat outside the outer curtain. The only land entries are the south bridge gate and a northern gate that passes through the outer curtain. The shapes of the walls illustrate the star-shaped patterns common to this era, an adaptation made to allow for defensive canonry, and to protect against siege artillery.

Roquecourbe is a region in south central Franc…e. The print shows a unique two-part fortification positioned on both sides of a natural waterway. The larger part borders on the south, with a bridge gatehouse leading to the main road. The northern portion sits atop a plateau linked to the main road by a winding stair. Attacking forces attempting to storm the main gate would be caught in a pincer attack between the two fortresses. The limited space between river and plateau would put them at even more severe a disadvantage by reducing troops to a narrow column. The shapes of the walls illustrate the star-shaped patterns common to this era, an adaptation made to allow for defensive canonry, and to protect against siege artillery.

Contemporary limp vellum (a few pale stains). Provenance: with the ownership inscription of Sir Andrew Fletcher of Saltoun (1653-1716), Scottish patriot, and one of Britain's greatest bibliophiles at the time of the Glorious Revolution, whose library was reconstructed by P.J.M. Willems in 2001, at the head of the title-page and purchase information "3 gul: 10 st:" on front free endpaper; Ex-Libris Jean R. Perrette, his sale, Christie's New York, 5th April 2016, lot 41. One of two editions with different imprints published in the same year, with no priority established. AN ATTRACTIVE COPY, of this comprehensive record of 17th-century French coastline, created to help with the nation's defences, and a suitable companion to Tassin's Les plans et profils de toutes les principales villes et lieux considérables de France. Ensemble, les cartes generales de chacune province & les particulieres de chaque gouvernement d'icelles, also 1634, which described and depicted the principal cities and towns of each Province of France. The 29 beautiful maps combined information gathered by Tassin and other cartographers: the first part charting the Atlantic coastline from Calais to San Sebastian; the second, the Mediterranean coastline between the Spanish border and Villefranche. Tassin was appointed 'royal cartographer' at Dijon before establishing himself as an engraver in Paris where he issued a number of small atlases of France and Swtizerland. A predecessor of Jaillot, who ultimately bought his business, and Sanson, and so also the forerunner of the celebrated French School of cartography. The early years of the 1630s, when this atlas was being prepared, were years of turmoil in Europe: the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648) was at its height. Initially a war between Protestant and Catholic states in the fragmenting Holy Roman Empire, it gradually developed into a more general conflict involving most of the great powers of Europe, becoming less about religion and more a continuation of the FranceHabsburg rivalry for European political pre-eminence. The following year, in 1635, the Franco-Dutch alliance led to the French conquest of the Walloon provinces and a sustained French drive into Flanders. The republic and Spain, fearful of the growing power of France, concluded a separate peace in 1648 by which Spain finally recognized Dutch independence, which brought the Eighty Years' War (15681648) to an end. From the distinguished library of celebrated Scottish Patriot Sir Andrew Fletcher of Saltoun. Fletcher spent several periods of many years in exile from his beloved Scotland in exile in Europe, for his political views. It is therefore not surprising that he should have an atlas of the coastline of France in his large collection of mostly historical and political writings. The currency of purchase recorded by Fletcher appears to the Dutch guilder, and he is recorded as having lived in Over a lifetime of collecting, "Fletcher built up a library of some 6000 books, almost certainly the largest private library in Scotland at the time. He left two manuscript catalogues of his books (one much fuller than the other), and since the books themselves were not dispersed until the 1960s, it has.
