CELESTIAL ATLAS, CHARTS AND MAPS OF THE WORLD DE JODE’S IMPORTANT POLAR PROJECTION WORLD MAP
1. CORNELIS DE JODE (1568 - 1600) “Hemispheriu(m) Ab Aequinoctiali Linea, Ad circulu(m) Poli Arctici…Ad Circulu(m) Poli A(n)tarctici” Engraving, 32x51cm ANTWERP 1593 A FINE COPY IN A STRIKING BLACK AND WHITE VERSION AS ISSUED. Gerard and Cornelis De Jode’s second atlas edition “Speculum Orbis Terrarum” published in 1593 contained two world maps. The first is signed by Cornelis De Jode on a rectangular projection. The second is unsigned and is “one of relatively few world maps drawn as two hemispheres on north and south polar projections” (Shirley). This new world map among other “fresh” maps in the edition attempted to keep the atlas “Speculum” “up-to-date” following rapid advances in geographic knowledge towards the end of the 16th century. In the light of recent discoveries the knowledge of the Arctic and the Antarctic continents was rapidly improving and some old theories had to be discarded or changed. One example is the old idea of a great unknown land in the south. The map is elegantly engraved and surrounding the hemispheres there are elaborate borders of cherubs and clouds. Some wormholes, a waterstain in lower centrefold. Literature: Rodney Shirley “The Mapping of the World” entry 184, plate 149 and chosen for the dust jacket

Today it is remembered mostly for the Lutheran mission initiated by King Frederick IV and for the official coinage through centuries by the King of Denmark – Norway, the Tranquebar coins are very popular among collectors. As offered as a complete uniform set of three and the extra Van Keulen chart this is a unique opportunity to acquire important historical documents. Especially the broadside must be regarded as a very rare piece. Except a small hole in the broadside and in the map, the set is in excellent fresh condition. 22 000,(€2350)

A FINE COPY OF THE IMPORTANT AND FAMOUS GERMAN CELESTIAL ATLAS. Johannes Doppelmayr, an acclaimed astronomer, was born in Nuremberg. He was a member of the Royal Society of London and the Academies of Berlin, Vienna and St. Petersburg. His «Atlas novus» deals with everything that was known about the planetary systems, the ecliptic theories, and the lunar theories by Copernicus, Tycho, Kepler, Mercator, Newton, Halley and others. A few printer’s creases, lower left corner of the chart «Tabula Selenographica» restored affecting a very minor piece of the printed surface, a couple of restorations in inner margin but well away from the printed line. Very few dampstains causing an occassional minor wash to run. A very good copy for the sophisticated collector of books and maps.

MAPS OF SCANDINAVIA, RUSSIA, THE ARCTIC & THE ANTARTIC THE TRADITIONAL MAP IMAGE OF SCANDINAVIA 1482 – 1532 INCLUDING GREENLAND CONNECTED TO FINNMARK
12. MARTIN WALDSEEMÜLLER «Tabula Moderna Norbegie et Gottie» Woodcut, 31,5x49cm (at bottom), sheet size 46x63cm STRASBOURG (1513) – 1520 This early map of Scandinavia comes from one of the most important and famous atlases in the history of cartography. It was published by Johannes Schott and compiled by Martin Waldseemüller who made the first world map to include America in 1507. The 1513 atlas was the sixth edition of Ptolemy’s Geographia but Waldseemüller’s ground-breaking contribution was to add a supplement of twenty new modern maps in addition to the traditional Ptolemy set. The map of Scandinavia is similar to the Ulm map from 1482 – 86, but the names of Prussia and Livonia were omitted in the title. The map exists in two printings only, the 1513 and the reprint in 1520. The latter is with one exception without the text lines on the right hand side. An excellent copy with very wide margins!

13. GIACOMO GASTALDI (c. 1500 – c. 1565) “Schonladia Nova” Engraving, 13,5x17,3cm VENICE 1548 Elegant map of Scandinavia based on Ziegler (1532). Gastaldi is one of the most famous representatives among several cartographers in Venice mid-1500. His edition of Ptolemy’s “Geographia” contained sixty maps, the most extensive to date. The atlas was never republished and the individual map is difficult to obtain. A fine copy in a strong impression. Bound “in plano”, no centrefold.

15. GIROLAMO RUSCELLI (ZENO) “Septentrionalium Partium Nova Tabula” Engraved map, 18x24,5cm VENICE 1574 This extraordinary map in the history of cartography is based on the so-called “Zeno map”, a woodcut map from 1558 which was included in a few copies of the book “De i commentari…” written by C.M. Zeno. On this map the mythical island “Frislandt” south of Iceland was depicted for the first time. Only a handful of copies of the original Zeno woodcut map is known, making this Ruscelli edition the first obtainable. It was copied by Ruscelli for his Ptolemy edition in Italian 1561 and later. Our copy is from the new plate published in 1574. The Ruscelli publication gave credibility to the description of the area, and “Frislandt” was drawn on most maps of the North the next century. If we compare the original “Zeno-map” from 1558 with the Ruscelli edition the latter does not connect Greenland to the peninsula of Scandinavia. A strong impression and in excellent condition.

FIRST EDITION MAP IN ORIGINAL COLOURS! AN ICON MAP IN THE HISTORY OF THE CARTOGRAPHY OF SCANDINAVIA
21. GERARD DE JODE (1509 - 91) “Septentrionalium Regionum Svetiæ, Gothiæ, Norvegiæ, Daniæ” Contemporary hand-coloured engraving, 37x49,5cm ANTWERP 1578 This very elegant map is a work of art and a classic map collector’s item. The copper plate was engraved by the Van Doetecum brothers and is geographically based on Liévin Algoet’s large woodcut map from 1562 (Ginsberg 21). De Jode’s map publishing business was already from the beginning in the shadow of Ortelius and never became a commercial success, but still the quality of his maps is similar to or sometimes even better than that of Ortelius. The business failed and only two editions of the atlas (1578 “Speculum Orbis Terrarum” and 1593 “Speculum Orbis Terrae”) were published. Maps of either edition are scarce and desirable pieces for collectors, the 1578 edition must be regarded as rare and very few coloured copies are known. According to Ginsberg there are 3 different states of the Scandinavia map. This copy is the first without “cum priuilegio” lower right. This imprint was added onto some copies of the 1578 before it became permanent in the 1593 issue. State 3 is 1593 with more hatching in the Gulf of Finland. A perfect copy. Literature: W.B.

The complete text set in German, 23 leaves XXXVI – LVIII with text and illustrations, last page with a map of Novaja Zemlja Each sheet c. 30,5x20cm FRANKFURT am Main 1599 The account of Willem Barents’ third voyage to the North told through the German publishing house De Bry. This part consists of 23 plates with illustrations and two maps in the text (in addition there was a separate map of the Arctic, not included in our set, but presented in the previous entry). This is the relevant section of the North taken from “Dritter Theil Indiæ Orientalis...Drey Schifffahrten der Holländer nach obermedten Indien, durch das Mittnächtigsche, oder Eissmeer...”, “De Bry was an engraver and book publisher and was known for his several volume works about voyages and discovery. When the Barents expedtion returned to the Netherlands, De Bry was quick to publish an illustrated travel account and a copy of the Barents map” (see “Northward Bound at the Far Edge of the World”, page 32). Willem Barents was in command of three Dutch voyages attempting to search for a Northeast Passage. The first voyage took place in 1594, the second in 1595 and the last one in 1596 – 97. This winter the ship with 17 men on board including Willem Barents and Jacob van Heemskeerk were frozen into the pack ice and forced to build a winter camp at Novaja Zemlja. The winter was spent in a house built by wood material from the ship. De Bry’s set based on one of the surviving crew member’s account tells the dramatic story of the tremendously harsh living conditions and how they tried to survive. Five members of the expedition including Willem Barents died before the surviving crew was rescued during the summer 1597 and could return to Holland in good health. 24

HENDRICK HONDIUS (1597 – 1651) “Poli Arctici Et Circumtacentium Terrarum Descriptio Novissima” + “Polus Antarcticus” 2 contemporary hand-coloured engravings, each c. 44x50cm AMSTERDAM (1636), but 1637 EARLY EDITION MAPS OF THE CLASSIC PAIR OF THE POLES. A scarce uniform pair in a strong, early impression from “Appendix Novi Atlantis” published by J. Janssonius. The North Pole map in its state 3 according to Burden. This map (first state is 1636) is a modernized version of the Mercator Polar map from 1595 and later. Both maps have Latin text verso. “Poli Arctici” is surrounded by vignettes of Arctic whaling. The “Polus Antarcticus” map has scenes with natives from the south Pacific, Patagonia, Strait of Magellan and Cape of Good Hope. R.V. Tooley writes in “Mapping of Australia” no.10: “the first printed map as far as I know to show the discovery of Peter Nuyts land, or part of the south coast of Australia and was the best map of Australia prior to Tasman’s discoveries”. The upper margin small on the Arctic, both upper and lower trimmed on the Antarctic. Literature: The Arctic map: P. Burden “The Mapping of North America” 246, state 3, Kershaw “Printed Maps of Canada” entry 101 “third state”, Lainema – Nurminen “Ultima Thule – Arktiska Upptäcktsfärder” page 146 – 147

Also marked is the track of Fridtjof Nansen’s voyage in “Fram” and its capture within the ice. The projection is said to be: “Polar Azimullat equidistant projection”. The Antarctic map is dated July 57 but overprinted with the route of Sir Vivian Fuchs’ “Commenwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition” which ended in March 1958. The projection is “Zenithal Equidistant Projection”. The maps are also interesting material in today’s climate situation in following the changes of the ice barriers. 4 500,(€480)

“EN KUNST- OG KULTURDESTINASJON MIDT I ØSTERDALEN” For både Galleri Bygdøy Allé og innehaver Pål Sagen blir mye av hverdag og fritid benyttet til pleie og håndtering av hva vi gjerne kaller «Den Norske Kulturarven». Dette er bakgrunnen for vårt eierskap og drift av
Stor-Elvdal Hotell med sine 11 bygninger i Koppang sentrum
Hotellanlegget midt i Koppang sentrum består av et nyere hotellbygg, en scenebygning og ni antikvariske laftede bygninger fra 1600 til 1800 samlet rundt på et ca. 10 mål stort tun innenfor en skigard. Ett av byggene er den berømte «Barfrøstua» som ble fredet av Riksantikvaren allerede i 1923. Alle byggene har en grundig dokumentert historie og er i seg selv et bygdemuseum fra det historiske Østerdalen.

VÅR AVDELING PÅ NORDSTU GÅRD
Stor-Elvdal Hotell, vår avdeling på Nordstu gård
I tillegg disponerer hotellet hovedbygningen og festsalen på storgården Nordstu Koppang i Gamle Kongevei bare 500 meter fra «Tunet». Her har vårt kongepar tidligere vært flere ganger på besøk. Stor-Elvdal Hotell skal bli en aktiv aktør innen norsk kunst- og kulturformidling og med fokus på hyggelig overnatting og servering av norsk kvalitetsmat. Med alle byggene inklusive Nordstu gård og den store tomten, vil hotellanlegget også egne seg meget godt til lukkede selskaper og arrangementer som bryllup (vårt Burloft er tilpasset), konfirmasjoner, firmafester, jubileer eller hva man måtte ønske å arrangere.

STOR-ELVDAL HOTELL ÅPNER LØRDAG 16. JULI SITT EGET FJORD OG FJELLMUSEUM «FRA VUGGEN I SOGN TIL ØSTERDALENS RIKE»
I bygningene Østerdalsstua «Hektoen» og i «Jegersborg» blir det kunstmuseum og museumsbibliotek som ser ut til å kunne få nasjonal oppmerksomhet. Sentralnerven i prosjektet blir kultur og identitetsoppbyggingen av Norge fra 1814 og frem til rundt 1860. I tillegg er det rundt omkring på «Tunet» også mange andre viktige kunst- og kulturinnslag både fra tiden langt før og etter den tid. Våre gjester vil få et godt innblikk i vår kunsthistorie med førstehåndskjennskap til reise- og kunstpioneerene som tok seg rundt i landet under strabasiøse forhold og tegnet, malte og beskrev alt hva de så og følte.
