Novus Globus / COELESTIS / Auct. Et Edit. / GERH. Et LEONH. VALK / Amstelodami. Diameter globe: 3 inches / 7.6 cm. - Total height: 5,91 inches / 15 cm. A scarce and beautiful miniature celestial globe produced in Amsterdam by Gerard and Leonard Valk during the first quarter of the eighteenth century. A celestial globe is a mounted sphere, displaying the stars and zodiacs. This globe consists of twelve copper plates, original hand-coloured varnished, clipped elliptical gores, and two celestial calottes - all expertly crafted onto the papier-mache globe itself. Gores are the printed panels with curved sides that taper to a point at each end, making up a surface of the globe. They are designed to give a complete three-dimensional map when cut and adhered to the globe. The globe sits on four lovely, turned wooden mahogany stands, with rectangular cross stretchers all meeting at a central point beneath the globe. The globe has delightful bun feet. The celestial calottes are on the ecliptic poles. The globe has a brass meridian ring and hour dial with a hand-coloured printed paper ring on the wooden horizon ring, showing degrees and the days of the houses of the Zodiac. The title is (without a cartouche) situated between Hydra and Argo. Only the stars of the first five magnitudes are given; the chart is placed between Phoenix and Cetus. Highlights include: Stars: Individual stars are marked, often using different-sized dots to indicate their magnitude (brightness). Constellations: Figures representing the constellations (such as Orion, Ursa Major, Pegasus) are typically drawn and labelled, often based on the traditional 48 Ptolemaic constellations from Greek and Roman astronomy. The colouring on this miniature globe is certainly contemporary if not original. All the engraving is rendered to the highest standard. The globe is presented in excellent condition. There are a few minor dents and blemishes due to restoration, just below the Bear (Ursa Major) constellation. The horizon ring shows signs of slight wear. Gerard Valk, along with his son Leonard, was the only significant publisher of globes in the Netherlands during much of the 18th century, and enjoyed a near monopoly in the first half of the 1700s. Gerard Valk was apprenticed in London during the 1670s; however, he returned to Amsterdam during the late 1680s and quickly established his own business. In the early days, he often worked in collaboration with his brother-in-law, Petrus Schenk. Valk was tutored in the art of globemaking by Pieter Smit. Valk's globes soon met with widespread acclaim, and he swiftly produced several globes with 3,6,9,12,15, 18, and 24" diameters. In 1711, Gerard's son, Leonar,d joined the business and became a partner, and gained full control of the business after the death of his father in 1726. After Leonard's own death in 1746, globe production continued under Maria Valk (nee Schenk), wife of Leonard, and daughter of Petrus. The miniature or pocket globe was a British invention, introduced to the world by Joseph Moxon in 1673 when he produced a 3" globe. To own a pocket globe is to have the whole world in miniature. Pocket globes were never to be taken very seriously; they never served any practical purpose. Their size makes accurate calculations impossible, and they tend to lack the rings and dials for the most common manipulations. No, they were seen more as a status symbol, or a lovely decorative, artistic artefact to reside on a gentleman's desk or small table. There is a school of thought that some of the cheaper pocket globes may have aided children's education. Today, they reflect a lost and never-to-be-forgotten bygone age of exploration and discovery. The heyday or peak time for the pocket globe was the late 18th century. A unique opportunity to acquire and own a most desirable celestial pocket globe, in very good condition, produced by one of the very finest globemakers in Europe. A high-class miniature globe.

Terrestrial globe: Cosmotheore, Caelesti nostro Globo, Par, et plane Novus, Hic Terrestris ut existeret, Certo scias, Errore Veterum Sublato, Non tantum Utriusque Orbis, Longitudines ac Latitudines, Par reiterates Neotericorum Observationes, Hicce esse restitutas, Sed et nullum typis Emendatiorem prodiisse, Hoc igitur Novissimô tam diu fruere, Donec sub Majori forma, Meô aere Alios excudam Gerardus Valk Calcographus, Amsterdami, A(nn)o 17(50) Cum privilegio. / Celestial globe: Uranographia, Caelum omne hie Complectens, Illa pro ut aucta, et ad annum 1700 Competum, Magno ab Hevelio, correcta est, ita, ejus ex Prototypis, sua noviter haec Ectypa, veris Astronomiae cultoribus, exhibit et consecrate, Ger. et Leon. Valk, Amstelaedamenses. A pair of rare Valk table globes published by Gerard and Leonard Valk in Amsterdam in 1700 and 1750. The Dutch globe makers Gerard Valk (1652-1726) and his son Leonard Valk (1675-1746) were the only significant publishers of globes in the Netherlands in the eighteenth century. The design of their globes was completely new and incorporated the latest geographical and astronomical discoveries, and they were hence the most accurate globes for that time. Valk completed his present 15-inch. (39 cm) Globes in 1707, and the copper plates went through several states over the years. The terrestrial globe is here in what Van der Krogt calls state 3 (with the date changed to 1750 by pasting a slip over the "45" of the "1745" in state 2). Leonard Valk made the most important revision to the 1707 topographic image sometime between 1730 and 1745, when he revised the Caspian Sea and the Aral Sea based on a new mapping. The celestial globe is in state 2 (as published ca. 1711, when Leonard's name was added to his father's, but it was not further revised until 1745). The Valks apparently numbered each globe they made, stamping the number on the back of the brass meridian ring near the north pole and beginning a new series when the plate was revised. The present terrestrial globe is numbered "3"; the meridian ring of the celestial globe is not original and bears no number. They apparently made very few of these globes, for in the present states Van der Krogt records no numbers higher than 10 for the terrestrial globe or 7 for the globe. The present pair forms a beautiful example of the outstanding work of the Dutch Valk family as globe makers. Each globe was made up of two hollow paper-maché hemispheres joined at the equator and covered with a layer of plaster, the whole covered with eighteen engraved gores and two polar calottes, the celestial calottes on the ecliptic poles. The equator is graduated in individual degrees, the ecliptic in individual days of the houses of the Zodiac with sigils. Each globe has a brass meridian ring and hour dial with a hand-coloured printed paper ring on the wooden horizon ring, showing degrees and the days of the houses of the Zodiac. Each globe is supported by four columns with bun feet on a Dutch-style oak stand connected by cross-stretchers supporting a circular base plate, with support for the meridian ring at its centre. Including the oak stand. Each globe has a height of 59 cm (23 inches). The last two digits of the year on the terrestrial globe have been nearly obliterated, but one can see that they were formerly covered with a slip, as expected in state 3. The celestial globe has a new stand, a later hour dial, a brass meridian ring, and its paper horizon ring is in facsimile. Some minor paper repairs in Ethiopia (terrestrial globe) have been professionally restored. Overall, in good condition. An extraordinary, eye-catching set of these rare globes.
