Wahreste und neueste Abbildung des Türckischen Hofes. Printed by Adam Jonathan Felssecker, for Christoph Weigel. Nuremberg, 1719. German. First edition.
A book about the Ottoman Empire in early 18th century. The book contains a folding engraved plate and 65 engravings after paintings by the Flemish painter Jean Baptiste Vanmour which were commissioned by Charles de Ferriol, French Ambassador to the Ottoman Empire.
The engravings depict Turkish figures, among them the Sultan Ehmet III and his associates, military figures and officials, local figures - among them several Jewish figures - and more.
The Flemish-French painter Jean Baptiste Vanmour (1671-1737) was known for his paintings depicting the Ottoman Empire. In 1699 he joined the entourage of the French Ambassador to Istanbul, Charles de Ferriol and there he was engaged in painting portraits of Ottoman officials, clergy and military figures and others (he continued doing so after the departure of the French Ambassador to France in 1711). In 1714 de Ferriol published in Paris a book with engravings after paintings commissioned from Vanmour. The book was very successful, was translated into several languages and printed in several editions.
Bound with two other books:
• Grundmässige Untersuchung von dem KayserlichenTitul und Würde. Cölln, 1723. German.
• Friederich Zollmanns Historische Untersuchung dess Sächsischen Gesammten Haupt-Wappens. Jena, 1723. German Engraving (double plate).
[8] leaves, 112 pp + 66 engraved plates; 96 pp; [1] engraved plate (two pages), 40 pp, 20 cm. Good-fair condition. Defects to binding, detached binding, no spine. Numerous gatherings and leaves are detached. Paper-label and different library ink-stamps (ink-stamps to margins of engraved plates). Scribbles in pencil on several leaves. Pen inscription on title page of first book. Stains (most leaves are clean and in good overall condition). Small tears to margins of some of the leaves.
