Aggiungi al carrello1st Edition. Very good condition. Blank on verso. Size 13.5 x 16 Inches. An excellent 1855 first edition example of Colton's map of European Turkey. Like most of Colton's Europe maps, this map was derived from an earlier wall map of the world produced by Colton and D. Griffing Johnson. This map, made when the Ottoman empire cont…rolled much of the region, covers what are today parts of Greece, Turkey, Macedonia, Albania, Bosnia, Serbia, Croatia, Bulgaria, Montenegro, and Moldova. An inset map in the lower left quadrant details the Bosporus and Istanbul (Constantinople). Another inset map, in the lower right, focuses on the island of Candia or Crete. This map depicts the waning years of Ottoman hegemony in the region, with the Greek Independence movement achieving Peloponnesian sovereignty in 1821. The Ionian Republic, under the protection of Great Britain, was also free of Ottoman control. The other Grecian and Balkan states, including Serbia, Croatia, Moldavia, Wallachia, Albania, and Macedonia, remained at least nominally under Ottoman control until 1878. This map also identifies various cities, towns, rivers, rapids, mountain passes, and an assortment of additional topographical details. Map is hand colored in pink, green, yellow and blue pastels to define national and regional boundaries. Surrounded by Colton's typical spiral motif border. Dated and copyrighted to J. H. Colton, 1855. Published from Colton's 172 William Street Office in New York City. Issued as page no. 22 in volume 2 of Colton's 1856 Atlas of the World. References: Rumsey 0149.089 (1856 edition).

Aggiungi al carrelloVery good. Minor wear along original centerfold. Original platemark visible. Overall toning and foxing at places. Size 20 x 24 Inches. This is an attractive 1817 map of the Balkans by the Edinburgh cartographer John Thomson. It depicts the region from modern day Slovenia east to the Black Sea and from Moldova south to include Bu…lgaria. The map also notes the ancient Roman regions of Illyricum, Dacia and Moesia. Throughout, the map notes both contemporary and ancient place names. Also notes rivers, mountains and other topographical features. Following the Battle of Corinth in 146 BC, the Greek peninsula came under Roman rule. The period from 31 BC and AD 180 in Greek history is described as the era of the Pax Romana. This was a period of peace and security when many Greek cities flourished, leading to cultural and economic progress. The classical period in Greek history, which lasted from the 5th century B.C. through the 4th century B.C. greatly influenced the Roman Empire's politics, art, architecture, philosophy and literature. After the fall of the Western Roman Empire, Greece became the center of the Eastern Roman or Byzantium Empire. Thomson's work, including this map, represents some of the finest cartographic art of the 19th century. His maps are known for their stunning color, awe-inspiring size, and magnificent detail. This map was prepared by John Thomson for inclusion in the 1817 edition of his New General Atlas .

Aggiungi al carrelloVery good. Minor wear along original centerfold. Minor toning and spotting. Narrow top margin. Size 21 x 25.5 Inches. This is an attractive 1817 map of Greece, the Balkans and Ukraine by the Edinburgh cartographer John Thomson. It depicts the region from Greece north to include the southern portions of Ukraine, including Crimea.… Includes the whole or part of the modern day nations of Greece, Albania, Macedonia, Bulgaria, Romania, Moldova, Serbia and Hungary. Rivers, mountains and other topographical features are noted. As the title suggest, this map was issued to depict the territories as set by the Congress of Vienna in 1815. The regions are color coded with an explanation of the colors included in the lower right quadrant of the map. Following the defeat of Napoleonic France, the conference in Vienna set to resize the main powers so they could balance each other off and remain at peace. Europe under a new peaceful balance of power was centered on the five most important powers (also referred to as the five 'Great Powers') of the United Kingdom, France, Russia, Prussia and the Austrian empire. Alas, the 'peace' was but an illusion and Europe was anything but calm. Old rivalries would fester and soon nationalism, liberalism, revolution (industrial and otherwise) would once again be on the rise across Europe. This map is a part of a Thomson's larger 4 map set of Europe. Thomson's work, including this map, represents some of the finest cartographic art of the 19th century. His maps are known for their stunning color, awe-inspiring size, and magnificent detail. This map was prepared by John Thomson for inclusion in the 1817 edition of his New General Atlas .

Aggiungi al carrelloGood. Discoloration along the centerfold. Wear along the centerfold at margins. Slight foxing at upper-left margin. Size 12.5 x 14 Inches. This is Matthew Carey and William Barker's c. 1795 map of Ottoman Europe, Hungary, and nearby territories in southeastern Europe, made for Carey's General Atlas . It depicts the region as it…was just prior to a major rearrangement that would see Ottoman rule over the European portion of its empire collapse. A Closer Look Coverage includes Hungary, the Balkans, Greece, and territories that today compose Bulgaria, Romania, Moldova, and Ukraine. Waterways, mountains, cities, administrative borders, and regions appear in extensive detail. Scales are provided in Hungarian miles and British statute miles. Bulgaria and Romania are reversed from their actual locations, a curious error which remained in later editions. The Decline of Ottoman Europe Often remembered as the 'sick man of Europe,' the Ottoman Empire went through a long period of unrest and dissolution from the late 18th through the early 20th century. In fact, there were several important reform efforts that might have forestalled the empire's disintegration, but they were hindered by opposition from entrenched interests. The Ottoman's main problem was dealing with an increasingly powerful Russia to its north while also managing potential threats from Austria and other nearby powers, especially as Russia and Austria were allied for much of the 18th century. Although on the defensive, the Ottomans were able to do so for the first half of the 18th century, but the disastrous Russo-Turkish War of 1768 - 1774 led to the loss of Crimea, and another war against Russia from 1787 until 1792 led to further losses along the Black Sea. The Ottomans also had to contend with rising discontent among subject populations, including a 1769 - 1772 revolt in Egypt and periodic Greek uprisings, harbingers of greater troubles to come. By the 1830s, Ottoman rule over most of the territory seen here would be seriously threatened or eliminated entirely. Publication History and Census This map was engraved by William Barker for the 1795 or 1796 edition of Carey's General Atlas (sometimes subtitled American Edition of Guthrie's Geography improved ). Its distribution is difficult to firmly establish, both due to uncertainty over its date and because the OCLC catalog listing includes digitized copies along with physical examples. The map is listed among the holdings of the American Antiquarian Society, while the entire atlas is held by a handful of universities and research institutions in the United States and Europe.

Aggiungi al carrelloVery good. Closed centerfold split to the right of the cartouche, stabilized on verso. Soiling lower corners due to handling. Small pencil annotation near center. Size 20.5 x 23.5 Inches. An example of Johann Baptist Homann's c. 1710 map of southeastern Europe, with a special focus on the Danube River. A Closer Look Coverage emb…races from Bohemia to Malta in the west and from the Dnieper (Dnipro) River to Crete and Rhodes in the east. Settlements are labeled throughout, with the larger towns and cities illustrated by buildings. Several of these are recorded for purely academic interest, such as Delphi, which had been destroyed and abandoned for centuries. Waterways, hills and mountains, islands, coastal features, and administrative boundaries are also illustrated. The Danube and its tributaries are traced in bold lines across the map. The ancient Roman Via Militaris is also noted, running between Belgrade ( Singidunum ) and Seliuree (Silivri, formerly Selymbria or Selybria) near Constantinople. The combination of Latin, Italian, German, and Polish placenames gives a sense of Homann's source material, as well as the prevailing political powers in different regions. A curious inset map on the left covers the Upper Danube, originating in the Black Forest and flowing through Swabia. The title cartouche includes several references to Greek mythology, including Pegasus at the top and Istros at the right, symbolizing the Danube River. The figures at left are uncertain, but they could be Heracles slaying the Lernaean Hydra or Cadmus defeating a similar water dragon. The figures to the far left of the cartouche are likely naiads (freshwater nymphs). Historical Context Between 1707 and 1710, Greece and the wider Balkans were under the control of the Ottoman Empire, which was experiencing both internal challenges and external threats during this period. While Ottoman rule remained dominant, the region was marked by unrest and tensions stemming from heavy taxation, corruption, and the empire's efforts to suppress dissent. In Greece, particularly in the Peloponnese, this period followed the end of the Morean War (1684 - 1699), during which the Venetians had temporarily taken control of the region. However, the Treaty of Karlowitz (1699) had returned the Peloponnese to Ottoman control, and by 1707, the Ottomans were re-establishing their authority, often harshly, leading to resentment among the Greek population. Resistance to Ottoman rule simmered in the northern Balkans, with Christian populations in Serbia, Bulgaria, and Wallachia looking to Austria or Russia for support. However, these powers were preoccupied with other conflicts, such as the Great Northern War and Rákóczi's War of Independence in Hungary. Publication History and Census This map was prepared by Johann Baptist Homann. Although examples in institutional catalogs are assigned dates ranging from 1702 into the 1730s (with later issues by Homann Heirs into the late 1750s), the present work was prepared between 1707 and 1710 for inclusion in the 1710 edition of his Neuer Atlas . Although later issues of the map are superficially similar to the present map, there are numerous updates and changes, including Homann's Privilege, explanatory notes, and a representation of the Danube River transposed on the Black Sea in later issues. Also, the face of the mythological figure holding a lyre and bow on the left side of the cartouche is noticeably different between the present map and later issues, indicating a new plate rather than modifications to an existing plate. Of note, this example has an old color cartouche, which is very rare in Homann maps, as he generally preferred to leave the cartouche uncolored (most examples with colored cartouches represent modern color).

A scarce map of Ottoman Europe, produced by military officer al-Hac Nasir al-Dagistani and published in 1906 by Mahmud Bey Matbaasi. It displays the remaining European por…tion of the Ottoman Empire, which was severely imperiled at the time, and most of which would break away in two wars in the Balkans that directly preceded World War I (1914 - 1918). A Closer Look Covering the Balkans from the Adriatic to the Black Sea, this map highlights the remnant European portions of Ottoman Europe in the early 20th century, before the two Balkan Wars. Administrative borders are illustrated and labeled, as are mountains, waterways, major roads, railways, cities, and other features. An inset at the bottom-left displays the Bosporus, while a legend at the right explains the symbols used throughout. Multiple tables provide information on telegraph and postal codes, distances between major cities, and demographics of the empire's vilayets. An inset of Crete appears at bottom. Despite a movement to do so, the island did not join Greece upon the latter's independence in the early 19th-century. However, repeated revolts against Ottoman rule and foreign intervention forced the Sultan to accept Crete's near de facto independence. Nevertheless, momentum for union with Greece continued, driven by communal violence between Muslims and Christians and the weakening of Ottoman rule overall. In 1906, the year of this map's publication, the island's High Commissioner was deposed. In 1908 Crete joined Greece. Historical Context The Collapse of Ottoman Europe Ottoman control over the Balkans, Greece, and other nearby territories was already in jeopardy in the early 19th-century, and by the end of the 19th-century, many of these territories had achieved independence. Those regions that had not (Albania, Macedonia, portions of modern Greece, and Bulgaria) were underonly nomina l control from Istanbul. Despite the Young Turk Revolution in 1908 and the onset of drastic reforms, the difficulties faced by the Ottomans only increased in subsequent years, and the empire lost nearly all of its European territory by the end of 1913. The destabilization of the region provided opportunities for rival foreign powers to interfere and compete with each other, setting the stage for the First World War. Late Ottoman Cartography As with other elements of Ottoman administrative and intellectual life, in 19th century, the threat of powerful neighbors prompted a comprehensive reexamination of cartographic methods. Along with the Tanzimat reforms in the mid-19th century, came an effort to train cartographers in the latest European surveying methods. Print technology also improved with the development of commercial lithographic printing by the end of the century (the present map is, notably, a chromolithograph). Still, several factors, including limited funding for military and non-military cartographers, somewhat hindered the development of late Ottoman cartography. Chromolithography Chromolithography, sometimes called oleography, is a color lithographic technique developed in the mid-19th century. The process uses multiple lithographic stones, one for each color, to yield a rich composite effect. Generally, a chromolithograph begins with a black basecoat upon which subsequent colors are layered. Some chromolithographs used 30 or more separate lithographic stones to achieve the desired effect. Chromolithograph color can be blended for even more dramatic results. The process became extremely popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries when it emerged as the dominant method of color printing. The vivid color chromolithography made it exceptionally effective for advertising and propaganda.

Aggiungi al carrelloVery good. Mounted on linen. Light wear and toning along original fold lines. Blank on verso. Size 31.75 x 20.75 Inches. This is an 1854 James Wyld map of the eastern Balkans and the Black Sea coast during the Crimean War. The map depicts the region from Salonica to Odessa, and from the Dnister (Dniester) River to the island of…Lesbos (I. Mytilini) in the Aegean Sea. Published in the middle of the conflict, Wyld presents the theater of war, highlighting the two regions first occupied by the Russian Empire (Wallachia and Moldavia) and allowing his viewers a better understanding of the news they were receiving from their armies in the Balkans. Geographic Context Highly detailed, myriad cities, towns, and villages are labeled throughout, including Odessa, Adrianople, Salonica, Gallipoli, and Constantinople. Topography is also noted, with chains of hills and mountains indicated by hachure and rivers and streams meandering their way to the sea. Three different grades of roads are marked from 'great roads' to 'carriage roads' and finally to 'cross roads'. Ancient roads are also noted. Forts and batteries, Greek monasteries, and inns are also marked. Various colors are used to highlight regional boundaries, with Moldavia, Austria, Bessarabia, Walachia, Bulgaria, and Rumili among those identified. A brilliant blue sets apart the regional seas, as well as the Bosporus (Bosphorus) and the Strait of the Dardanelles in two inset maps situated in the lower right corner. A plan of the town of Schoumla is situated along the right border. This city, located along two mountain passes through the Balkan Mountains, was an important site in the Crimean War, which was raging at the time of this map's publication. Per the map, only five practicable passes over the Balkan Mountains existed at this time, and the two routes through Schoumla led directly to Constantinople, the capital of the Ottoman Empire. The Crimean War The Crimean War, with an alliance of the Ottoman Empire, Britain, France, and Sardinia on one side of the conflict and the Russian Empire on the other, lasted from October 1853 until February 1856. The root cause of the war has never been fully understood, but the stated impetus for hostilities was the rights of Christians in the Holy Land, with the Catholics being supported by the French and the Greek Orthodox Church gaining the support of the Russians. Other factors also included the gradual decline of the Ottoman Empire and British and French concerns about Russian gains in the region at the cost of the Ottomans. Further Historical Context Hostilities erupted in July 1853 when Russia invaded two Ottoman suzerainties known collectively as the Danubian Principalities, labeled here as Wallachia and Moldavia. The Ottomans immediately responded and fought a defensive campaign that eventually halted the Russian advance at Silistra, which the Russians besieged. Alarmed by the possibility of an Ottoman collapse, the British and French jumped to their aid, sending troops and supplies to Gallipoli. They did not arrive at Silistra until after the Russians had withdrawn. Further Conflict Now, public opinion at home, where discontent at the seemingly wasted effort and expense of sending armies to the Balkans, exerted an influence on the alliance. This outcry led to the planning and execution of an invasion of the Crimean Peninsula in September and a siege of the Russian naval port of Sevastopol, their primary naval base in the Black Sea, which lasted for eleven months. Russia finally sued for peace in March 1856 and in the Treaty of Paris the ended the war Russia lost its Black Sea ports, Wallachia and Moldavia gained a modicum of independence, and Christians in the Holy Land were given a degree of equality.

This is a monumental and stri…king 1884 Richard Kiepert chromolithograph topographic map of Greece and the Balkan Peninsula. The map depicts the region from central Italy east to the Bosporus and from the Danube Delta on the Black Sea to Crete. An utterly fantastic piece created by the most celebrated 19th-century German cartographer. Kiepert employs eight different colors to illustrate the region's topography. He details the region's river systems and coastlines and marks, although without identifying them by name, many of the region's cities and towns. Chromolithography Chromolithography is a color lithographic technique developed in the mid-19th century. The process involved using multiple lithographic stones, one for each color, to yield a rich composite effect. Oftentimes, the process would start with a black basecoat upon which subsequent colors were layered. Some chromolithographs used 30 or more separate lithographic stones to achieve the desired effect. Chromolithograph color could also be effectively blended for even more dramatic results. The process became extremely popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when it emerged as the dominate method of color printing. The vivid color chromolithography produced made it exceptionally effective for advertising and propaganda imagery. Publication History and Census This map was created by Richard Kiepert and published by Dietrich Reimer in 1884. The present example bears a collection stamp from the Department of Geology at Harvard University. We have confirmed that it was legally deaccessioned, and the accompanying slipcase bears an official deaccession stamp. Only one example is cataloged in OCLC, and it is part of the collection at the University of Chicago. A second OCLC ghost entry appears as well, implying that at least one more example is part of another institution's collection, but the institution has since withdrawn from OCLC.
