= Large paper(?) copy of this important description of Egypt, the Red Sea and the Hejaz with detailed maps by geographer of the King of France, D'Anville. Atabey 27; Hilmy II, 85; Gay 32. Blackmer 40: "D'Anville was the first geographer to make accurate maps of Egypt, although he never travelled in the country itself. He used the information of Pococke and Norden, and especially the observations made by the père Sicard". Contains a few (extensive) contemp. annotations (possibly by/ from the library of ANACHARSIS CLOOTS), i.a. discussing the observations of Tibet made by the 18th-cent. diplomat Samuel Turner (on first free endpaper and blank).

82 3247 Egypt Denon D Vivant 
- Partly (sl.) foxed (often in blank margins only)..Lacks 55 plates.
= Despite its incompletenes, an impressive and interesting series of engravings after D. VIVANT DENON, apparently published as an independant pictorial atlas, possibly preceding the plate volume that accompanied Denon's Voyage en Egypte (which contains 143 plates), in which many of the plates that are contained in our copy as single images to the plate are printed together w. 1 or 2 other engravings on one leaf. The captions of the plates in our volume are engraved in capital letters below the image (and differ partly from those found in Denon), whereas those used in Denon's Voyage (...) are engraved w. captions in Italics. Also, the numbering of the plates in our copy does not correspond to that of any of the plates traced in other plate volumes. Whatever the purpose of this atlas may have been, it shows the legendary energy and fanatical interest that Denon must have had during his voyage in which he accompanied the Napoleonic forces employed in Egypt. It is said that many of his preliminary sketches for these engravings were done either seated on a camel or kneeling on one knee. Cf. Hilmy p.172ff; Blackmer 471; Gay 1998; Atabey 338 (ed. London, 1807); De Meulenaere, p.62ff and Henze II, p.50f: "(...) ausgezeichnet durch lebendige, ja brillante Darstellung". SEE ILLUSTRATION PLATE LXXXI.

- Contents loosening. Backstrip dam.
= Very rare emblem book. Praz, p.236 and p.127-131: "Among the collections derived from popular love emblems which we have just mentioned, one which spread throughout several countries at the end of the seventeenth century offers a typical instance of plagiarism. It contains forty-four emblems, accompanied by epigrams in four languages, the text as well as the pictures being engraved. Of these latter, thirty-two are copies from the emblems of Thronus Cupidinis, eleven repeat pictures from Vaenius's Amorum Emblemata, one derives directly from Heinsius's Emblemata amartoria (...) The illustrations are very crude; they are copies of the emblems quoted above, with additions in the background in order to fill in the rectangular space of each picture which is larger than that of its model".
