Description:

One of the earliest incunable double-leaf view of the city Budapest published in Schedel's Nuremberg Chronicle, woodcut made by Michael Wolgemut and printed by Koberger in 1493 in Nuremberg.  The City of Buda, since 1873 consolidated as one municipality with Pest. In the foreground is the Danube. To the left is the burg or fortress, surrounded by a wall. In the gable of one of the numerous buildings within this enclosure appears a crown and two shields. The castle of Buda, actually located on a high elevation above the city, is shown on low ground. The residences of the city are closely packed about the churches. The only topographical eminence is in the right background—a low, bald hill. The river shown without shipping, bridges or wharves, no signs of life.

Schedel's view of Budapest is one of the earliest obtainable views of the City and realistically the only large format 15th Century illustration available to collectors.

The Nuremberg Chronicles was the first printed history of the known world with about 2000 woodcuts the most picturesque work of the early time of printing. It became one of the most popular books of the 15th. century. Latin edition.

The post 1705 – P. Schenk – Regnorum Hungariae appeared first on Antique Maps.

The historical chronicle by Matthaus Merian published under the common title "Theatri Europaei", IX volume (describing the years 1660 - 1665) of the 21-volume work "Theatrum Europæum...", in Frankfurt of Main, Johann Görlin 1672.

This volume mainly describes Balkan, Hungary and the Turkish wars from year 1660 to 1665.

A multi-volume historical work begun in 1633. Twenty-one volumes were published by 1738. This monumental work was published in the annex of the printer and copperplate engraver Matthew Merian, who specialized in publishing maps, city views and chronicles. It is one of the most important sources on the Thirty Years' War and the reign of Louis XIV. Its importance as a source is not nullified by the fact that various kinds of sensationalism were woven into the narrative, which served to entertain and also influenced the book's sales, as well as the authors' often lack of objectivity, including Abelin, in whom pro-Swedish and pro-Protestant sympathies come to the fore. Of separate value are the 720 copperplate illustrations, some 140 of which were done by Merian himself (maps, allegorical subjects on title pages). The authors of each volume were Johann Philipp Abelin, Johann Flittner, Heinrich Oreaus, physician J. P. Lotichius, Johann Georg Schleder, Martin Meyer, Wolfgang Jacob Geiger, Daniel Schneider and Gabriel Schweder. The publication, aimed at both "scholars" and "ordinary" people, was widely read and proved to be a publishing success. The work, both in its textual and iconographic layers, is also evidence of the birth of the concept of Europe as a geographic-historical-cultural community (Elblag Digital Library).

The complete book with all engravings and pages present: 4 introductory pages, 1576 text pages, 32 index pages, with all - 41 copperplate engravings, some of them double-sided or folded several times: battle plans, images of sieges and fortresses, the cities of Lisbon, Tokaj, processions, maps of Lithuania, Hungary, Crete and 15 famous people portraits.
