Description
Imagini degl'abiti con cui Va uestita la Nobiltà della Serenis.ma Republica di Venezia. Dedicate all'Illmo et Ecc.mo Sig.r Andrea da Leze Degnis.mo Proc.tor di S: Marco. Venezia, Ragheno, 1702. Suivi de: [Augsburger Kleidertrachten].


1 - Extremely rare suite of Venetian costumes of high-ranking officials. This suite, complete in its title and comprising 12 plates, depicts Venetian costumes of high-ranking officials against a backdrop of Venetian monuments. The plates are signed with the monogram of Giacomo Balduino followed by the name of the engraver A. Zuchi and the address of the publisher, Ludovic Ragheno.

List of plates :
Nobile Veneto in eta Puerile – Doge di Venezia in Abito d’inverno – Kau:er e Procurator di S. Marco con la Ducale – Dama Veneziana – Procurator di S. Marco in abito d’estate – Doge di Venezia in Abito d’estate – Nobile Veneto in Abito di Lutto – La Dogaressa Veneta in Abito d’Inverno – Nobile Veneto prima di metter Veste – Procurator di S. Marco in Abito d’inverno – Nobile Veneto in Abito d’inverno – Nobile Veneto in Abito d’estate.
Petites taches brunes affectant 3 planches (encre) mais très bon état général.

Andrea Zucchi was a Venetian copperplate engraver and painter. Born in Venice in 1675 (or shortly after); died in 1740 in Dresden. He engraved a series of views and costumes of Venice. No copy appears to have ever been sold. Only three copies have been located in public libraries: at the British Library, St. Pancras in London; at the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibnitz Library-Lower Saxony Library in Hanover; and at the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin, Preußischer Kulturbesitz, Kunstbibliothek in Berlin.

2 - A very rare set of Augsburg costumes in beautiful period colors.
A set of 24 plates in period colors published by J. Wolff with a trilingual German-French-Italian caption depicting Augsburg men and women of different backgrounds, at different times of the year, in front of bourgeois houses and churches.

List of plates :
Le guet – Une Servante qui porte des présents nuptials - Un Ministre de la Confession d’Augsbourg – Un Espoux – Une Espousée à la Bourgeoise – Femme de Condition allant à la Noce – Demoiselle de Qualité allant à la Noce –– Une Sagefemme portant un enfant au Baptesme – Femme de Condition allant à l’Eglise en Esté – Une Demoiselle allant à l’Eglise en hyver – Fille allant à l’Eglise en Esté – Fille d’un Ouvrier allant à l’Eglise en hyver – Une femme Catholique allant à l’Eglise – Dame de qualité Sortant en habit d’Eté - Dame de qualité Sortant en habit d’hyver – Fille de Condition allant à la promenade en Esté - Demoiselle Catholique – Fille d’Augspourg passant par les rües – Femme d’un Ouvrier en habit de düeil allant a un enterrement – Une Servante en habit de düeil – Une Servante Catholique en habit de düeil –Servante à la maison – Une Servante revenant du Marché – Un Huissier du Bourguemaitre.

The last eight plates bear, at the top right, traces of stamping in the paper, a 12 cm tear in the inside margin of the plate "A servant, who...", a large consolidated tear in the plate of "Servante a la maison," and small wormholes in the upper left margin of the plates.

The most complete set ever identified. Lipperheide's bibliography cites only 19 plates; a copy with 23 plates, of which only two were colored, was sold at auction in Germany in 2003; another copy, sold in 1959 at Sotheby's with 22 colored plates, was described as "very rare." Despite the few defects noted, these two sets are exceptionally rare.

Binding a bit worn, rubbed and stained, vellum slightly shrunk.



Reference: Cicogna, Saggio di bibliografia veneziana 1744 (Imagini degl'abiti) - Cf. Lipperheide. Dfd 2 u. 3 (Augsburger Kleidertrachten).

Condition and Coloring
We indicate the condition of each item and use our unnique HiBCoR grading system in which four key items determine a map's value: Historical Importance, Beauty, Condition/Coloring and Rarity.

Color Key
We offer many maps in their original black and white condition. We do not systematically color-up maps to make them more sellable to the general public or buyer.
Copper engraved or wood block maps are always hand colored. Maps were initially colored for aesthetic reasons and to improve readability. Nowadays, it is becoming a challenge to find maps in their original colors and are therefor more valuable.
We use the following color keys in our catalog:
Original colors; mean that the colors have been applied around the time the map was issued.
Original o/l colors; means the map has only the borders colored at the time of publication.
Colored; If the colors are applied recently or at the end of the 20th century.
