[Engraving]. [Topography]. [Jerusalem]. Description... - Lot 82 - Chayette & Cheval
[Engraving]. [Topography]. [Jerusalem]. Description de la ville de Ierusalem avec les noms des saints lieux ou antiquitez qui sont visitez par les pellerins et voiageurs. A Paris, chez Iean Boisseau, 1643. One engraved copperplate view, ca. 24,5 x 73 cm. (copperplate); margins and tab included 37 x 87,5 cm. (creases without gravity; small light stain in the Temple enclosure, some soiling on the back). Very rare engraved panoramic view of Jerusalem. It is part of the very rare atlas published in Paris by Jean Boisseau between 1642 and 1648, the "Theatre des citez". Numerous places around the city bear their engraved designation; a legend placed on the right of the engraving identifies 28 points of the city. Early manuscript title on spine; tab in left margin and trace of center tab on spine. (Pastoureau, Les atlas français, Boisseau I, n° 55).
