Transcription

Als voorzitter van de Nederlandsche Vereeniging van Antiquaren (NvvA), is het voor mij een bijzonder genoegen
deze derde Gezamenlijk Catalogus in het kort bij u in te leiden. Het is een selectie uit het aanbod van nagenoeg
alle antiquaren die lid zijn van onze Vereniging. Zoveel leden met zoveel verschillende disciplines en onderwerpen
– van het oude boek tot de meeste recente zeldzame eerste druk; van de vroege kaart, een stadsgezicht of een
andere bijzondere prent tot fraaie moderne grafiek -, zoveel individualisten hier bijeen die een representatieve
en interessante selectie uit hun voorraad aanbieden.
De NVvA is aangesloten bij de internationale organisatie The International League of Antiquarian Booksellers
(ILAB-LILA), hetgeen betekent dat op al onze verkopen een garantie geldt. Meer hierover kunt u vinden op
de website www.ilab.org onder het lemma “Code of Ethics”. Alles over de NVvA kunt u daar ook vinden of
op onze eigen homepage www.nvva.nl .
Het verschijnen van deze catalogus valt samen met de 29th Amsterdam Antiquarian Book, Map & Print Fair,
die van 23 tot en met 25 oktober zal worden gehouden in de Passenger Terminal Amsterdam (PTA), Piet
Heinkade 27 te Amsterdam (zie voor uitgebreide informatie: www.amsterdambookfair.com ). Daarom is in
deze catalogus ook alvast een plattegrond van de deelnemers opgenomen. Zij hopen allen u daar te mogen
begroeten.
Ik besluit met een woord van dank aan het organisatiecomité van de beurs, die alleen met uw bezoek deze
beurs weer tot een succes kan maken, maar zeker niet in de laatste plaats dank ik onze secretaris Frank Rutten
voor zijn niet aflatende steun deze catalogus samen met Auke van der Berg (Rozenberg Publishers) toch nog
op tijd te realiseren.
Ik wens u veel leesplezier, waarbij ik vanzelfsprekend de wens uitspreek dat er ook een aankoop uit voortvloeit.
En natuurlijk geldt dat ook voor een bezoek aan onze beurs.
As president of the Dutch Antiquarian Booksellers’ Association (NVvA), it is my great pleasure to give you
a brief introduction to this third joint catalogue. It gives a selection from the offerings of nearly all antiquarian
booksellers who are members of our association. So many members covering so many different fields and
subjects – from early books to the most recent rare first editions; from old maps, city views or other remarkable
prints to lovely modern graphic art – so many individualists brought together here to offer a representative
selection from their stock.
The NVvA is associated with the international organization, The International League of Antiquarian Booksellers
(ILAB-LILA), which means all our sales are covered by a guarantee. You can find more details on the website
www.ilab.org under the heading “Code of Ethics”. You can also find all you wish to know about the NVvA
there or on our own homepage, www.nvva.nl.
The present catalogue appears in conjunction with the 29th Amsterdam Antiquarian Book, Map & Print Fair,
which will be held from 23 to 25 October in the Passenger Terminal Amsterdam (PTA), Piet Heinkade 27
in Amsterdam (for further information: www.amsterdambookfair.com). For that reason, the catalogue also
contains a floor plan giving the locations of the participants. They all look forward to welcoming you there.
I close with a note of thanks to the bookfair organisation committee, which needs only your visit to make
this fair a success once again. Last but not least, I wish to thank our secretary Frank Rutten for his unflagging
support for the punctual execution of this catalogue, together with Auke van der Berg (Rozenberg Publishers).

contemporary account of the Siege of Vienna by the Turcs
Montalbo, Francisco de. Historia de las guerras de Ungria desde el anno de 82 hasta el de 88. Palermo,
Pedro Copula, 1693. Small folio. 31 x 21.5 cm. (24), 454, (20) pp. With full-page engraved coat of arms of
the Duke of Uzeda, Viceroy and commander of Sicily, to whom the book is dedicated. Contemp. marbled
calf, spine ribbed and richly gilt with green title-label.
e 2.400,Extremely rare contemporary account of the Siege of Vienna by the Turcs in 1683, a milestone in European history. At the time the House of Habsburg dominated Europe. Leopold I of the Austrian Habsburgs was German
Emperor and King of Hungary, where as the Spanish Habsburgs ruled in Milan, Sicily, and the Americas. The
Habsburg family were stout defenders of the Roman Catholic faith against the Reformation, which flourished in
Hungary. When Leopold I started to expand his power in Hungary and tried to suppress protestantism, the protestants called the Turcs for help. In 1683 a Turkish army of 200,000 men marched to Vienna. From July 14 until
September the 12th, Vienna was under siege by the Turcs. Leopold I begged for troops from the countries of
Europe and the Pope sent money.Vienna was then relieved by the imperial army, supported by strong Polish
troops, and the Turkish army was heavily defeated. Hostilities however dragged on, until finally the Peace of Karloviez was signed in January 1699. The account, divided into six books, describes in detail all the events leading up
to the siege of Vienna and its aftermath up to the official recognition and crowning of Leopold I in 1689 as King
of Hungary. With an extensive index at the end. No further details could be found on the author except what he
stated about himself on the title-page; “Fray Francisco de Montalbo de la Sagrada Religion de S. Geronimo, Doctor
Theologo y Predicador de Su Magestad”. He is also known as being the author of a book on the splendid
funeral of the Spanish Queen, Marie Louise de Bourbon: “Noticias funebres de las magestuosas exequias.”
published in Palermo in 1689. Fine copy of a very rare book. Not in any of the usual reference works.

influentual book on colour with 27 beautiful ‘chromo-calcographed’ plates
Chevreul, Michel Eugène. Des couleurs et de leurs applications aux arts industriels à l’aide des cercles
chromatiques. Avec XXVII planches gravées sur acier et imprimées en couleurs par René Digeon. Paris, J.B.
Baillière, 1864. Folio. 26, (2) + 27 plates, of which 1 large folding, depicting the ‘couleurs d’un spectre
solaire’, 14 colour scales, and 12 colour circles, printed by Ch. & A Chardon, and Lamoureux. Orig. blue
cloth, title gilt, printed endpapers. e 3.850,First edition with beautiful colour-engraved plates of a rare and
significant work by Michel Eugène Chevreul (1786-1889!), professor of chemistry at the Natural History museum in Paris, and
since 1863 its director. Chevreul was also the director of the dyeing
division of the Royal Gobelin Tapestry works. In that function he
received many complaints about the dyes being used there. In
particular, the black colours appeared to be different when used
next to blue colours. He determined that the perceived colour was
influenced by its surrounding colours. He carried out researches
on colour contrasts, which led him to a concept known as ‘simultaneous contrast’, on which he wrote the pioneering study: ‘De la
loi du contraste simultané des couleurs’ (later translated as:‘The
Principles of Harmony and Contrast of Colours’), in 1839. After several other publications he completed his
work on colour contrasts with 2 other significant works. The first - our title, giving a colour classification
system, colour circles and lightness scales, first published in 1864. And the second: ‘Compléments d’études
sur la vision des couleurs’, first published in 1873. The enormous influence which Chevreul’s colour theories
also had in the artistic world and its movements, especially impressionism, neo-impressionism, and orphism,
has been well documented.
The colour engraved plates by René-Henri Digeon are of exceptionally fine quality. Digeon worked together
with Chevreul as an engraver and lithographer. Chevreul praises Digeon of executing his overlapping colour
etching technique with such an exceptional accuracy and sensitivity. Their experiments with all sorts of
chemicals, even urine, to keep the intensity of each different colour when printed, are described with detailed
recipees. He also recommends that the colour circles should’t be exposed to much to light. No further details
could be found by us on René Digeon, except that his earliest 2 titles, on chromo-calcography, are published
around 1855, incl: ‘Notice explicative sur la chromocalcographie ou reproduction de toutes espèces
d’aquarelles par la combinaison de 4 planches gravées sur acier et imprimées en taille-douce (jaune, bleu,
rouge, noir)’. He is possibly related to the engraver Antoine René Digeon (b. 1844) with whom he is often
confused. Good copy of a rare and important book, with magnificent colour printed plates.

‘father of the impossible figures’, extensive archive and original drawings
Reutersvärd, Oscar. (1915-2002) and Bruno Ernst. Archive containing over 350 original drawings of
impossible figures and an extensive correspondance on Oscar Reutersvärd’s life and work. An affectionate
correspondance, spanning nearly 20 years, with Bruno Ernst, the famous author and biographer of M.C.
Escher, manuscript letters with extra drawings, clippings, original photographs, exhibition posters and many
with dedications to Bruno Ernst. Sweden, 1983-2001 (2002). The drawings are on thick drawing paper or on
fine Japanese paper, coloured and uncoloured, and of different formats.
e 45.000,Oscar Reutersvärd (1915-2002), the father of the impossible figure’,
was a well-known Swedish artist who pioneered the art of creating
impossible figures, objects which appear solid on paper, but cannot
actually be built. In 1934 Oscar Reutersvärd created the most famous
and one of the simplest of impossible figures out of a strange two-
dimensional representation of cubes, that he named ‘the impossible
triangle’. Reutersvärd invented several other impossible structures and
famous objects, including ‘the impossible staircase’ from 1950, better
known as the ‘Penrose stairway’ (incorporated in Escher’s print
“Ascending and Descending”), and the ‘tribar illusion’. Whereas M.C.
Escher build inhabited worlds around impossible objects, Reutersvärd’s
designs typically consist of pure geometric forms, all in isometric projection. In 1954, Roger Penrose, after attending a lecture by the artist
M.C. Escher, rediscovered the impossible triangle and drew it in its most familiar 3-dimensional form,
which he first published in a 1958 article. Penrose later stated that he was at that time unaware of Reutersvärd’s earlier designs. Although Roger Penrose and M.C. Escher (with his incorporation of the impossible
triangle in his famous lithograph “Waterfall” in 1961), made the ‘Penrose triangle’ famous, it was independently discovered and refined years earlier by Reutersvärd. Later, there have been innumerable adaptations and
variations on the impossible staircase, not only by Roger Penrose, but by Oscar Reutersvärd as well. Reutersvärd
continued drawing impossible figures all his life. In 1983, the Swedish Government honored Reutersvärd’s
achievements by issuing a set of 3 stamps that were depicting his impossible figures.
Bruno Ernst, the wellknown Dutch biographer of M.C. Escher, came in contact with Reutersvärd in 1983
and a cordial friendship developed, as expressed in this extensive correspondance. They exchanged many
ideas on impossible figures and Reutervärd’s work profited from Bruno Ernst’s ideas and mathematical
knowledge. In the early 1990s, Ernst decided to prepare for a comprehensive study on Reutersvärd life and
work. He asked for biographical and information and, step by step, Reutersvärd began to write down his life,
comment on his work, ideas and hopes. He supplied Bruno Ernst with photographs, newpaper clippings,
announcements of exhibitions etc. The book was never written, but this can be easily done so with the
present material. This unusually large collection, basically Bruno Ernst’s Reutersvärd archive, contains all the
key elements for a biography of Reutersvärd’, in addition to many original special drawings, most often
commented upon in his letters and with dedications. A fine and very large collection.

Chandler, R. Travels in Asia minor: or an account of a tour made at the expense of the Society of Dilettanti.
Oxford, Clarendon Press, 1775. 4to. XIV, XIII, (3), 283, (1) pp. With a large folding engraved map of ‘the
Aegaean Sea or Archipelago, with the Coasts of Europe and Asia, and part of Asia Minor’ by Thomas
Kitchin. Contemp. sprinkled h.calf with marbled boards, gilt lettered morocco title-label.
e 1.450,First edition of the personal journal of an expedition made by Richard Chandler (1738-1810), a wellknown
English antiquary. With him went as architect Nicholas Revett (1720-1804), and William Pars (1742-1782),
as artist. They embarked in June 1764 and returned in November 1766. The expedition was the first independent
mission of the Society of Dilettanti, and aimed to explore and describe the antiquities of Ionia. The Society
of Dilettanti was a society of noblemen and gentlemen which sponsored the study of ancient Greek and
Roman art, and the creation of new work in the classical style. It was founded as a London dining club in
1734 by a group of people who had been on the Grand Tour. The group aimed to “correct and purify” the
public taste of the country; from the 1740s, it began to support Italian opera, and from the 1750s, it was the
prime mover in establishing the Royal Academy. The official results of this first expedition were published as
‘Ionian Antiquities’ in 1769, and indeed exerted a major influence on Neo-Classicism in Britain.

[BOB DYLAN] JULES HALFANT. Original mock-up for a handbill. 1963. 38 x 26 cm.
e 3.900,Mock-up for a handbill (image size 25 x 20 cm) announcing
a very early concert by BOB DYLAN at the New York City
Town Hall, April 12th, 1963; his first ever solo performance
in a main venue. The piece consists of 17 pieces of paper
carefully affixed on cardboard, some fine hand-lettering, as
well as a roughly reproduced photograph of a very young
Dylan. Included are a few critic’s quotes, like: “One of the
most compelling blues singers ever recorded.” and “He’s so
goddamn real, it’s unbelievable.” The historic New York
Town Hall concert also was the first show ever for which
Dylan performed self-written material only, in stead of playing traditionals and / or cover versions. The main part of this
show, attended by a mere 900 people, was recorded by
Columbia Records, who never officially released the material.
The lower margin shows some handwritten instructions
concerning size, edition, etc. (“Rush please!”) by the uncredited
designer who happens to be Jules Halfant. Halfant was the
house designer for Vanguard Records, which is a bit ironic as Dylan was rejected by this company in the
earliest stage of his career.
ROY LICHTENSTEIN. Imperfect. Stockholm, Heland Wetterling Gallery, 1988. Or. silkscreened
wrappers. 8vo.
e 340,Curiously shaped catalogue: top and fore-edge cut off crooked, following the theme of the exhibition: a series
of works titled Imperfect Paintings. The front of the wrappers, showing a repetition of small red dots on a white

YOKO ONO. Grapefruit, a Book of Instructions, introduction by JOHN LENNON. London, Sphere Books,
1971. Or. wrappers. Square small 8vo. 1st paperback edition.
e 2.600,First paperback edition of the revised and expanded version of Yoko Ono’s Grapefruit, which was first published
in Japan, 1964, in a limited edition of 500 copies. This edition, first issued in 1970, contains a short but very
appropriate introduction by ex-Beatle John Lennon. This copy has been SIGNED BY YOKO ONO and
JOHN LENNON in blue and black felt pen on the first blank page. These signatures were obtained during
a short and hectic signing session at Selfridge’s department store, Oxford Street, London, July 14, 1971.
[ANDY WARHOL] THE ROLLING STONES. Sticky Fingers. USA, Rolling Stones Records [n.d.]. 30 cm.
vinyl record in or. sleeve (design: Andy Warhol).
e 1.800,USA reissue of the classic 1971 album, in the famous zipper-sleeve made after a design by Andy Warhol; one of
the landmarks in the history of pop album sleeve design. The front of the sleeve has been boldly SIGNED BY
ANDY WARHOL in black feltpen, vertically along the left hand side. A very fine copy, with innersleeve.

Rarissime. Highly collectable as a publication by Hermans
never before found on the market, as a rare set of Ed van der
Elsken original photographs, as an original and extremely rare
Ed van der Elsken photobook and as the original prospectus
for a cornerstone of Dutch film-industry.
Als twee druppels water really was a ‘tough cookie’ for both director Fons Rademakers and author Hermans. Hermans got
himself into huge trouble and lingering lawsuits trying to
avoid sharing royalties with his publisher Van Oorschot. He
wrote a new scenario based on the novel, but Rademakers
rejected the scenario as being far too comprehensive. To Hermans’
discontent Rademakers decided to follow his own scenario
implementing several suggestions done by Hermans (i.a. the
controversial final scene). Hermans lost all faith in the
production and took all opportunities to vent his spleen on
the film and on Rademakers, mainly to guard himself from
critics. Hermans also tried to cover himself by anonymously
writing the prospectus synopsis to the film, following his own
scenario rather than the one used by Rademakers. His authorship of the synopsis is no longer questionable.
However, the film was widely acclaimed and is considered today as a highlight of Dutch film production.
With a budget of Hfl. 620.000, it was the first mega-production movie in Holland. Dutch beer magnate
Freddy Heineken was willing to participate in the film under the restriction that his girl-friend of that time,
Nan Los, would be offered a role in the film. Los got an important role in the character Marianne. With his
participation Heineken obtained the rights. In 1969, after his relationship with Nan Los had ended,
Heineken forbid further circulation and showing of the film – it was re-released not before 2002, after
Heineken’s death

under the title suggested here: ‘Description et Génèse des Dépots meubles de Surface et du Relief de
l’Oesling. (Ardenne luxembourgeoise)’, our version however still without the bibliography and appendix of
the final thesis). Apart from the many corrections and remarks in the author’s hand in pencil and pen,
mostly inbetween the lines or in the margins, but also on 1 mounted letterpaper leaf of the ‘Physisch
Geografisch Laboratorium van de Universiteit van Amsterdam’, with many corrections of Hermans’ French,
done by P. Nicolas and corrections and suggestions (partly erased, but well-legible) with respect to content
done by a third party (earlier ascribed to his promoter P.J. Bakker, but we read P.C.B.). Absolute Fundgrube

the ‘Grote Gelijkhebber’ is eager to be corrected! Fellow scientists recently regarded the thesis as groundbreaking and brilliant

LUDOLPH, Job. Nieuwe doch aanmerkens-waardige historie van Abissinien, andersints Ethiopien,
getrokken uit de Latijnsche historie .. en nu in’t Nederduitsch gebracht door Willem Calebius. Utrecht,
Johannes Ribbius, 1687. 4to. Later half vellum, with old brocade-paper to boards. With folding map and 8
engraved plates (3 folding). 222,(10) pp.
e 1.550,First Dutch edition. - The treatise by the scholar, Job (Hiob) Ludolf (1624-1704), was first published in
Latin (Historia Aethiopica) in 1681, and is regarded as the first authoritative account of Abyssinia. He has
been called the ‘founder of Ethiopian studies in Europe’. Although he never visited the country, Ludolf
formed a close working relationship with an Ethiopian monk resident in Rome, himself clearly a highly
intelligent man. From this fruitful partnership emerged grammars and dictionaries of the classical Ethiopian
language as well as a lengthy history of the country. The large folding map by Tellez, is a landmark of cartography,
as it is the first to show the source of the Blue Nile at Lake Tana. The fine plates depict illustrations of
Ethiopean fauna, a banana plant, decapitation of missionnaries, etc.- (Owner’s name on title-page; partly
dampstaining, slight browning, stronger to one quire). - Rare Dutch edition.

L’AMI DU PEUPLE EN 1848. An Ier de la République reconquise, par F.-V. Raspail. Paris, Au Bureau du
Journal, 27 février-14 mai 1848. 21 numbers of 2 pages each. Folio. Modern half red morocco, marbled
boards, gilt lettering to spine.
e 4.500,Hatin 439; Izambard, La Presse Parisienne de 1848-1849, p. 6; La Révolution de 1848, Bibliothèque Nationale,
1948, 450.
Extremely rare complete set of this important journal, especially since, according to Izambard, the first two
numbers were distributed as posters. Publication ceased after Raspail was arrested on May 15, 1848.
The whole is preceded by ‘Lettre du Citoyen F.V. Raspail, Représentant du Peuple, Aux Citoyens Électeurs
de la Seine, Merci!’, dated September 22, 1848, and by ‘République Démocratique et Sociale. Raspail Président’,
dated November 1, 1848, both posters of great rarity.
‘Contre les gens du National, de la famille Arago à Buchez, et du journaliste Marrast à l’avocat Marie de
Saint-Georges, Raspail était des plus virulents’ (Maitron, DBMOF, vol. iii, pp. 281-283).
François Vincent Raspail, doctor, publicist and republicain activist. Between 1825 and 1830 Raspail published
about 50 articles ranging from botany, zoology, and paleontology to microscopic anatomy, physiology, and
forensic medicine. These studies were based on an early statement of cell theory, and he may be seen as a
founder of microchemistry. He was also a pioneer advocate of antisepsis and improved sanitation and diet.
His scientific career was limited by his continued refusal to accept official positions or awards. Also important
were his studies on prison conditions and industrial safety.
The present journal was a democratic-socialist newspaper during the 1848 revolution. It was among the very
few which survived for a longer period after the Provisional Government abolished or suspended almost all
the restraints that the previous regime had placed on the press. It’s success was mainly due to Raspail who
also presided over a club with the same name. His involvement in the journée of 15 May led to his detention,
and he was sentenced to six years in prison in March 1849; while in prison he was elected a deputy for Paris and
Lyons in the September by-elections and won 37,000 votes, mainly from Paris and Lyons, in the presidential
elections of December 1848. The first poster refers to his election as deputy, thanking those who voted for
him, the second to his ‘presidential campaign’ in 1848.

First edition.
Most copies apparently do not have the third text which is often believed to have been added with the 1778
edition. These texts were edited and published by Dumarsais and Le Mascrier, and the latter is the author of
31
Antiquariaat A. Gerits & Son
the text on Chronology.The first two texts have been written by Mirabaud. Usually the first text is attributed
to the Dutch publisher Bernard but this is an error: the first work was published in a collection of texts by
Bernard in 1740 (Dissertations mêlées sur divers sujets importants) which is probably the reason this text has
been attributed to Bernard. But the text was written by Mirabaud as is clearly shown in Ira O Wade’s study
The clandestine organization and diffusion of philosophic ideas in France from 1700 to 1750, chapter VI, where
one finds sufficient evidence for the fact that both texts are in fact written by Mirabaud. Mirabaud wrote
much but published little. The first text was originally entitled Opinion des anciens sur le monde and its purpose
was none other than to disprove the first chapter of Genesis, but he masked it so effectively under a deluge
of erudition that it was perceived only by those who were searching for arguments in favor of the rejection
of the bible. Mirabaud did not insist on the conclusion that the world was in fact much older but he certainly
did suggest it. In the second work, which was originaly entitled Opinion des anciens sur la nature de l’âme, he
passed from discrete suggestion to bold affirmation which explains why it was not included in the collection
Bernard published in 1740 as well as Mirabaud’s irritation when Dumarsais and Le Mascrier published this
text in this work.
Wade interestingly also points to the fact that there seems to have been a close collaboration between people
such as Mirabaud, Boulainvilliers, Fréret, Dumarasais and Le Mascrier and writes “Does it not indicate the
existence of a tenuous organization, a “coterie philosophique,” at least forty years before the “coterie holbachique”?
Jonathan I. Israel writes, in his Enlightenment Contested, that the texts circulated in manuscript and where
published in Bernard’s collection in a short version and ‘then in full version, in a clandestine collection published
by Du Marsais and Le Mascrier, in 1751’ (see pages 728-729).

The extremely rare continuation of Le Réforme Industrielle (1832-1834) and of La Phalange (1836-1839) and of
fundamental interest for the history of the Fourierist movement and its views on society. In the years 1840-1850,
during which the movement waned and waxed, 41 Phalanges were formed. The journal dealt with questions of
doctrine (Considerant’s ‘Exposition de élémentaire de l’économie sociale de Fourier’, ‘De la liberté de penser’, ‘La
démocratie moderne et le gouvernement’, Colin’s ‘La politique d’organisation’, Laverdant’s ‘De la division des
peuples et de la patrie’, Paget’s ‘Sur le travail des enfants dans les manufactures’); with economical questions (Considerant’s ‘Sur la cause des coalitions’, Toussenel’s ‘Féodalité industrielle’, Paget’s ‘Étude critique sur l’organisation
du travail’, Cantagrel’s ‘Les mauvais conservateurs perdront la France’, Pompéry’s ‘La plus folle des Utopies n’est
pas le phalanstère mais la charte constitutionnelle’, etc. etc.); with peace politics, it contained polemics against the
church, the conservatives and the numerous other socialist schools (Cantagrel’s ‘Violance des journaux catholiques’,
Considérant’s ‘Corruption du Christianisme par les feuilles bigotes’, ‘Réponse au M. Proudhon’) and also
informed the reader about the progres of the school such as ‘Progrès des principes sociétaires en Amérique’.
Other collaborators were: A. Bureau, A. Brisbane, A. Colin, A. Paget, A. Toussenel, Baudet-Dulary, Charbonnier,
Pellarin, Laverdant, Bourdon, Cantagrel, Renaud, Blanc, le Rousseau, Considérant, Tamisier, Vigoureux,
Gagneur, Perreymond, Pompéry, etc. etc.

BIESHEUVEL, J.M.A. Het huwelijk. Original typescript of this short story, signed by the author. 6 leaves
A4. With many additions, alterations and deletions in ink.
e 800,* About the last weeks of an old widower and his dog. This story not in Biesheuvel’s Verzameld werk (2008).
Added: the first publication of the story, in the Christmas 1973 issue of Studio, the magazine of Dutch public
broadcaster KRO.
BLOEM, J.C. Four A.L.S. to ‘Amice’ (a colleague), all dated 1939, and an unpublished poem. e 1.600,* In 1939 the poet J.C. Bloem had a lowly job on the department of Social Affairs in The Hague. In the
course of the year, he reported ill as many as 23 times. The present letters all report Bloem being ill, in an
extremely piteous tone: ‘Ik had gehoopt, vandaag weer op het Dept. te komen, maar ik voel mij te beroerd.
Wat het is weet ik niet, misschien griep, maar ik denk dat er toch wat anders achter moet zitten. Morgen
komt de dokter. Je weet, dat ik mij al een heelen tijd al beroerd gevoel. Ik ben den heelen dag dood-op; Alles
is mij te veel’.
The unpublished poem is a six-line occasional poem, monogrammed ‘J.B.’. The poet thanks his colleagues
(‘Toovenares en Toovenaar,/ Dat zijt gij vieren heel voorwaar’) for flowers received.
BROUWERS, Jeroen ‘Voor het eerst op het Pensionaat’. In: Sijoppersblad. Tijdschrift van het Pensionaat Sint
Jozef te Zeist. Vol. 4 (1950-1951). Cloth. e 1.200,* Brouwers’s very first publication, an amusing story in the magazine of his first boarding school when he was
only ten years old. Brouwers writes about his drive from Den Bosch to Zeist, his first impressions, meeting
other boys and what happened on his first day. He concludes: ‘Een paar dagen later kwam de frater op me af
en vroeg of ik iets voor het Sijoppersblad wou maken. Het moest gaan over mijn indrukken van de eerste
dag. Nou ik vind het hier heel fijn en het opstel dat ik moest maken heb je net gelezen.’
The boardinghouse in Zeist is one of the keys for Brouwers’s work, he experienced it as the worst period of
his life: ‘Ik heb geen kampsyndroom, ik heb een kostschoolsyndroom’ (‘I don’t
have a concentration camp syndrome, I have a boarding school syndrome’), he
later disclosed in an interview.
Added: vol. 5 (1951-1952; missing: nr. 3). In loose issues. In nr. 10 ‘Onze
Schoolreis’ by Jeroen Brouwers and five others. And ‘Kijkjes achter de schermen
11. Leidende functie in Hotelbedrijf ’ by J.Th.M. Brouwers, Jeroen Brouwers’s
father.
These volumes 4 and 5 exactly cover Brouwers’s Zeist period. Extremely rare,
never offered before!
FRANK, Anne Het achterhuis. Dagboekbrieven van 12 Juni 1942 - 1 Augustus
1944. Met een woord vooraf door Annie Romein-Verschoor. Amsterdam, Contact,
(1947). Boards with dust jacket designed by Helmut Salden (a few tiny professional repairs). (2), X, 254 p. First edition. e 4.500,34
Antiquariaat Fokas Holthuis
* Het achterhuis, translated as The Diary of a Young Girl, is one of the world’s best known diaries and one of
the monuments of modern history. This is a fine, hardly read copy of the true first edition of June 1947, with
the exceptionally rare dust jacket, which is usually missing because of its extremely fragile nature.
GRESHOFF, Jan Extensive collection of manuscripts, typescripts, proofs and paper cuttings of the 1928-1937 period. e 8.500,* Impressive, very varied collection of poetry and essays by
one of the most influential literary figures of the interbellum
period, containing more than 750 leaves of manuscript, 150
leaves of typescript, a dozen corrected proofs, a large number
of cuttings and some curious ephemera, like press cards and
even an X-ray of Greshoff ’s teeth in 1937!
The collection encompasses manuscripts and typescripts of
book reviews, full of human interest, memoirs of literary
friends (such as J.C. Bloem, Jan van Nijlen, Arthur van
Schendel and S. Vestdijk) and enemies (P.C. Boutens), French
literature, art and international travels. Then there are early and sometimes very different and unpublished
versions of Greshoff ’s poems, reading notes, names and addresses, lists of titles and a pencil drawing. Full
description (6 pp.) on request.
SLAUERHOFF, J. Three extensive A.L.S. and a correspondence card to his literary friend and later biographer
C.J. Kelk and his wife. 1926-1935.
e 6.000,* Multifaceted collection of letters, in which all sides of Slauerhoff ’s character may be observed: the
cosmopolitan poet and ship’s doctor trying to strictly separate these two disciplines (‘De samenleving op een
schip is niet van dien aard, dat men met lauwertakken om zijn pet kan loopen’), Slauerhoff as a traveller,
perpetually pinched for money (‘Het moeten produceeren om de inkomsten is funest’) and his poor health
(from the hospital in Genoa: ‘’t Zou ook te mooi zijn als alles liep!!’).
In 1926 he asks his friend Kelk from Surabaya to be his literary property keeper, for ‘Marsman laat taal noch
teeken over zijn “faits et gestes” hooren en zoo wensch ik ‘t hem niet over te laten. Ik ben er nog’.
Furthermore about his friend and colleague Dutch author E. du Perron and his wife (‘Des Perrons hadden
ook wel zin in de Côte maar ik geloof dat het verstokte Parisiens zijn, en ook vrij veeleischend – Wij zijn
bescheiden niet, als echte kleine luyden’), about the climate in Tangier (‘Bijna altijd is het hier vrij koel’),
about a delayed dispatch of books to Italy (‘Ik dacht al dat jullie mij brochures over Rot front etc. gestuurd
hadden’), about placing a translation at De Spieghel, a publishing firm run by two women (‘Wil je de spiegeleieren
eens vragen of ze in de Uilenreeks niet een vertaling van
mijn hand van El Tricorno van Alarcon willen uitgeven?
(...) De Spiegelaarsters schijnen niet dol op me te zijn.
Doe een goed woordje voor me en zeg dat ik toch zoo
kwaad niet ben maar vaak opsternaat door kinine en
andre medicijnen’). Slauerhoff ends with a poetical salute:
‘Saludos/ je Slau/ sin dudos/ schrijf gauw.’

studied for a short period theology. After this he entered the faculty of law. He was admitted an advocate; but having
become acquainted with the baron Justinianus von Weltz (1621-1668), a Hungarian nobleman who cherished
schemes for the reunion of christendom and the conversion of the world, and having himself become acquainted with
37

another world in dreams and visions, he abandoned all interest in his profession, and became an energetic promotor
of the ‘Christerbauliche Jesusgesellschaft’. The movement in its beginnings provoked at least no active hostility; but
when Gichtel began to attack the teaching of the Lutheran clergy and church, especially upon the fundamental doctrine
of justification by faith, he exposed himself to a prosecution which resulted in sentence of banishment and confiscation
(1665). After many months of wandering (...) he reached the Netherlands in january 1667, and settled at Zwolle,
where he co-operated with Friedrich Brecking (1629-1721), who shared his views and aspirations. Having become
involved in the troubles of this friend, Gichtel, after a period of imprisonment, was banished for a term of years from
Zwolle, but finally in 1668 found a home in Amsterdam, where he made the acquaintance of Antoinette Bourignon,
and in a state of poverty lived out his life of visions and day-dreams, of prophecy and prayer. He became an ardent
disciple of Jakob Böhme, whose works he published in 1682; but before the time of his death, he had attracted to
himself a small band of followers known as Gichtelians or Brethern of the Angels, who propagated certain views at
which he had arrived independently of Böhme. Seeking ever to hear the authoritative voice of God wihin them, and
endeavouring to attain to a life alltogether free form carnal desires, like that of ‘the angels in heaven, who neither
marry nor are given in marriage’, they claimed to exercise a priesthood ‘after the order of Melchizedek’, appeasing the
wrath of God, and ransoming the souls of the lost by sufferings endured vicariously after the example of Christ. While,

Van 1598 tot 1601 reisde de Amsterdamse burgermeesterszoon Hooft door Frankrijk, Italië en Duitsland, in eerste
instantie met de bedoeling zich te oriënteren voor een carrière in de handel. Vooral het Italiaanse verblijf maakte
grote indruk op hem en gaf richting aan zijn voorkeur voor de letterkunde. Hij studeerde korte tijd in Leiden letteren en rechten en in 1609 werd hij benoemd tot drost van Muiden en baljuw van Gooiland. Door zijn toedoen
werd de Muiderkring een middelpunt van het literaire en intellectuele leven van de Republiek. Aanvankelijk
schreef Hooft vooral gedichten en klassiek geïnspireerde treurspelen; vervolgens toneelstukken die gebaseerd waren
op episodes uit de vaderlandse geschiedenis. Tenslotte wijdde hij zich sinds 1618 aan de geschiedschrijving, met
name die van de Nederlandse opstand, waarbij Tacitus zijn grote voorbeeld was’.Haitsma Mulier, 193, 235Deze

Algiers, werd hij in de Parijse salons opgemerkt door een verhandeling Sur la chronologie d’Herodote (1781). In 1783
maakt hij een zwerftocht door het Nabije Oosten, wat resulteerde in een Herodotiaanse reisbeschrijving Le voyage en
Égypte et en Syrie (1787, 2 dln). In 1789 werd hem een mandaat als vertegenwoordiger van de derde stand in de StatenGeneraal toegewezen. Sindsdien paarde hij aan een bewogen politieke bedrijvigheid een vruchtbare carrière als essayist.
Vooral het Lockiaanse traktaat Les ruines ou méditations sur les révolutions des empires (1791) was erg populair. In 1793
gaf hij een soort van filosofische catechismus uit: La loi naturelle ou principes de la morale, déduits de l’organisation de
l’homme et de de l’universe. In 1795 reisde hij naar Amerika. Hij werd lid van de Académie francaise (1795) en senator

days, a pure and applied mathematician. Ranging easily, competently, and productively over the whole of
science and technology... Gauss appears as the ideal mathematician displaying in herioc proportions in one
person the capabilities attributed collectively to the community of professional mathematicians.’: H & L
11897: ‘Ouvrage magistral ‘: PMM, 257: ‘The Prince of mathematics.’ ‘Gauss ranks, together with
Archimedes and Newton as one of the greatest geniuses in the history of mathematics... Much of Gauss’s
time in later life was devoted to astronomy and magnetism. His ‘Theoria...’, 1809, contains an analysis of the
problems arising in the determination of the motions of the planets and comets from a limited number of
observational data.’: Ball, p. 449: ‘... a treatise which contributed largely to the improvement of practical
astronomy, and introduced the system of curvilinear triangulation.’: Norman Collection vol. I, 879: ‘In this
work Gauss developed and introduced the system of orbit calculation from 3 observations he had devised in
1801 to locate the planetoid Ceres...’: Epochmaking work, since Kepler’s ‘Astronomia Nova’ the most perfect
textbook on motion in unperturbed orbits.

by Etienne Luzac who would continue it for over 60 years, since 1772 together with his cousin Jean Luzac,
42
professor of law, history and Greek in Leyden. The fame of this journal rests upon the wealth of information
delivered by a great number of correspondents in all major European cities as well as in Africa, America and
Asia. It was the most trusted journal particularly during the last decades of the eighteenth century, widely
read all over the world 'at the gates of the Seraglio and on the banks of the Ganges, and copied from by almost
all other newspaper editors'. Thomas Jefferson called it 'the best in Europe' and 'the only one worth reading'
and it was said to be the only journal read by Louis XVI. It was of major importance for the history of
America. Luzac was strongly attached to the American cause and corresponded with leading men of the
revolution like John Adams, Benjamin Franklin and George Washington.

Barthélemy Faujas de Saint-Fond (1741-1819) was a wide ranged naturalist with special interest for minerals
and fossils, but he was also a physicist and chemist. One of his most important works was the ‘Recherches
sur les volcans éteintes du Vivarais’. He was appointed by Louis XVI assistant naturalist to the natural
history museum and royal commissioner for mines. In 1793 he was nominated first professor of geology at
the Jardin des Plantes. In his capacity of commissioner for mines Faujas travelled in almost all the countries
of Europe, everywhere devoting attention to the nature and constituents of the rocks.
The above work describes the fossils of the youngest stage of the Cretaceous, named after the capital of the
Dutch province of Limburg and is worldwide known as Maastrichtian. “The end of the Maastrichtian is
marked by one of the most dramatic events in the earth’s history, highlighted by the flash like extinction of
numerous marine and terrestrial organisms... One of the largest representatives was ‘Mosasaurus hoffmanni’,
an ambush predator with a total length of about 17m... [the skull of this crocodile which was found deep
within one of the underground limestone quarries of Maastricht] was to become the type specimen of ‘Mosasaurus hoffmanni’, southern Limburg takes a prominent position at the roots of vertebrate palaeontology...
Ultimately, a major role was reserved for George Cuvier... [and] contributed to Cuvier’s thinking about the
concept of extinction” (E.W. Mulder, Maastricht Cretaceous finds and Dutch pioneers in vertebrate palaeontology published in the ‘Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology’ 16, 4).
The original drawing of the ‘Mosasaurus hoffmanni’ plate IV in the publication is present and is a very fine
pen drawing by Gaulle. It is one of the first portrayals of this important reptile.
A well preserved and unique copy of this important work, with a bookplate of Eug. Chaper. Brunet II, 1192;
DSB IV, pp. 548-9.

Het resultaat van het speurwerk in Amsterdam van G. Veldhuysen Jr., dominee en Middernachtzendeling in
de strijd tegen de prostitutie in Amsterdam. De plaatselijke politieverordening werd in 1897 aangescherpt
naar aanleiding van o.a. dit en ander onderzoek. In 1888 ziet de Middernachtzending het licht. Als de overheid niets doet aan de bestrijding van prostitutie, is de gedachte, dan doen we het zelf wel. De werkwijze van
de Middernacht-zending is gedurfd, zelfs naar huidige maatstaven. Bij nacht en ontij gaan de zendelingen de
straat op en posten voor bordelen, om in Gods naam hoerenlopers tot inkeer te brengen. Dat leidt tot veel
irritatie, woede, en zelfs agressie. Een zendeling rapporteert ‘ernstige mishandelingen’. Toch verandert er weinig
totdat de Middernachtzendeling Velthuysen jr., de Groningse jurist Van Swinderen, Hendrik Pierson en zijn
neef Andrew de Graaf eind jaren negentig van de 19e eeuw het
‘Nationaal Comité tot Bestrijding van den Handel in Vrouwen’
oprichten. Er moet ‘gewerkt, onderzocht, gespeurd worden’,
benadrukt Velthuysen op de eerste jaarvergadering begin januari
1900, ‘opdat wij den weg leeren vinden in het somber labyrinth’.
Het Nationaal Comité geeft J. Balkestein, politie-inspecteur te
Haarlem, opdracht tot gedegen onderzoek en die komt in 1902
met zijn onderzoeksverslag over de structuren van prostitutie. De
‘gevallen vrouw’ is geen dader; ze is slachtoffer, verstrikt in een
web van bedrog en uitbuiting. In diverse steden en plaatsen
volgt een bordeelverbod. Ook in Amsterdam.

Gengzhi tu (Illustrations of Tilling and Weaving) 1 volume being the illustrations of Tilling
Beijing, 1739. Qianlong edition of 1739 with poems and descriptions. First Thus. Three-quarter leather.
Book condition: Good . This scarce volume of the Gengzhi tu (Illustrations of Tilling and Weaving) consists
of the 23 woodblock prints of rice cultivation. Bound in a 19th century three quarter leather over cloth
binding. Condition over all very good with some minor wear.
The earliest known work entitled Gengzhi tu (Illustrations of Tilling and Weaving) was based on the Gengzhi
shi (Poems on Tilling and Weaving), a set of 45 verses (21 on rice cultivation, and 24 on rearing silkworms
for the manufacture of silk) composed for the Southern Song court around 1145 by Lou Shu (1090-1162),
who was serving as a county magistrate near the imperial capital Hangzhou. Sometime around 1210, Lou
Shu’s poems were engraved on stone by his grandsons with the support of their uncle, the Grand Secretary
Lou You. A quarter-century or so later, in 1237, an edition of the poems was published with accompanying
woodblock illustrations by Wang Gang, a prominent military officer from Jiangxi province. Although this
too has not survived, it is widely believed to have been the seminal illustrated edition.
The Southern Song version of the Gengzhi tu, whose compositions are preserved in a Japanese edition of
1676, is geographically specific even though no place names are explicitly stated. At this point in time, rice
cultivation in paddies, the planting of mulberry trees, and the raising of silkworms were distinctly southern
Chinese activities. The emergence of the Lou Shu’s original Gengzhi tu cycle in 1145 is closely linked to the
removal of the Song imperial house from Kaifeng in the north to Hangzhou in the south less than two
decades earlier, in 1127. The poems and pictures they generated were clearly a statement of the new focus
on the political economy of the Southern Song court, since wheat and millet could not be grown in the
climatic zones of the vastly shrunken empire.

The Gengzhi tu series of pictures was well known during the
early Ming dynasty by virtue of its inclusion in the Yongle
dadian (Great Encyclopaedia of the Yongle Period) around
1407, but that portion of the work is unfortunately now lost.
The treatise Tiangong kaiwu (Exploitation of the Work of
Nature) published by Song Yingxing (b. 1587) in 1637 must
also be mentioned as having included many related illustrations of agricultural and sericultural activities showcasing the
latest technological advancements; it may well have served as a
catalyst for the later revival of the Gengzhi tu pictorial cycle.
Gengzhi tu representations reached a heightened level of development in the early Qing dynasty. From the beginning of
his long reign, the Kangxi emperor expressed great interest in
agricultural activities of the empire. He established experimental ricefields on the periphery of the Fengze yuan (Garden of Abundant Marshes) in Beijing, where in 1681 or so he
discovered the existence of a fragrant, early ripening type of
rice called yu dao (“imperial rice”). Ready for harvest in the sixth lunar month, as opposed to the usual varieties that ripen only in the ninth month, this “imperial rice” underwent a full decade of development and
testing in Beijing and Chengde; large-scale cultivation exclusively for palace consumption took place in
Chengde, where the growing season was even shorter than that of Beijing. It was formally introduced by the
emperor to his high officials in 1691. In 1715, the miracle rice was introduced to Suzhou, Nanjing, and
other places in the Jiangnan region in south-central China, where two crops a year could be harvested.
Regular and bountiful harvests have always been symbols of peace, prosperity, social harmony, and good
government, and thus expressions of patriotic pride. Needless to say, multiple harvests made possible by
direct imperial intervention would have been regarded as confirmation of Qing rule as mandated by Heaven.
Early in his reign, the Qianlong emperor took pains to put his own mark on the Gengzhi tu theme. Following in the footsteps of his grandfather, he commissioned his own woodblock-printed version in 1739, with
a fresh set of imperial prefaces, poems, and pictures believed to have been executed by the court painter Chen
Mei (act. mid-18th century) but based on those by Jiao Bingzhen. In 1769, the Qianlong emperor ordered
the pictures and poems on the Gengzhi tu executed by the Yuan-dynasty artist Cheng Qi (act. second half
of 13th century) to be engraved on stone, from which rubbings could then be taken and widely disseminated. But the 1696 version by Jiao Bingzhen was still the preferred model, as demonstrated by a number
of works now in the National Palace Museum, such as a Qianlong painted album of the same subject by
Chen Mei, as well as an anonymous album of paintings.
Apart from painted sets, miniature albums were also made, some provided with their own cases and others
placed within the tiny but lavishly decorated treasure-box ensembles (duobao ge). One such miniaturized treatment
of the theme by court artists was made during the early Qianlong period (between 1736-1745) and deposited
in the Hall of Mental Cultivation. It is divided into two cases (one containing 23 pictures of tilling and the
other 23 of weaving). Each case contains four volumes measuring only 9.54 cm in the vertical dimension, 5.4
cm across, and only 1.64-1.74 cm in thickness. The first volume of the “tilling” pictures contains the preface
of Kangxi emperor. The pictures are all in ink and color on silk and every one is accompanied by a caption
title. Each picture is followed by poems composed by the Kangxi, Yongzheng, and Qianlong emperors; they
were inscribed in gold ink on black paper by the official Zhang Zhao and the gold decorative borders surrounding
the texts all depict twin dragons clamoring for a pearl. Although such miniature versions were based on Jiao
Bingzhen’s model, court artists often took liberties in rearranging various parts of the compositions, just as Jiao
made changes to Lou Shu’s original pictorial scheme.

Excellent condition. No repairs. Probably rebound for last owners mentioned in the XIX century.
Emanuel de Aranda was born (1614) in Gent and grew up speaking Flemish. At age 25 he went to Spain
“to learn Spanish”. On his way back (oversea as he had suffered attacks on his overland trip to Spain) his ship
was attacked by “ Turkish” (time of the Ottoman Empire) pirates and Aranda was taken prisoner to Algiers
(1640-1642), where he was sold as a Christian slave and lived two years in slavery. Eventually he was bought
free and returned to Flanders. He died in 1686. The diary he wrote was published from 1656 onwards and
became one of the pillars of the documentation on the phenomenon of Christian slavery.
No original manuscript of this book, het Kort verhael is known to exist (Latifa Zrari, 1997). It was first
published in French in Brussels in 1656 (Mommart); than in Paris in 1657 (Clousier); than in Brussels again
by Mommart in 1662 and in Paris in 1665 and in Leyden in 1671. From 1662 onwards other – unpublishedshort texts of de Aranda were added in these publications (13 tracts). There was an English edition published
in 1666 (London, Starkey). The first Flemish edition was published in the Hague, 1666 and a later edition
in Brugues in 1682. There is a modern edition of 1992 (Rocher, Paris, 1997). Our text is (but in Flemish)
the same text, word by word, as the first edition in French in Brussels.
Contens:
The book starts with 5 (non- numbered) leaves that explain Arandas family situation: his marriage, the birth
(and death) of his children. It opens by saying, Ick Emanuel de Aranda & F Fransissi, oudt 30 jaeren ben
56
Frederik Muller Rare Books B.V.
getraut den 26 Decemb anno 1644 to Gendt in de S te Michielks Kerke met Catarina van hauwegem
filia etc etc. The 2 of November 1645 our daughter was born, Catarina Francisca etc etc (dies 30 november
1670 at 12.00 hours in the night as a later marginal note). Than he writes that the last day of August 1647
his son is born, op den lesten Augusti anno 1647 tusken 10 en 11 heuren voor middach is gebhooren
mijnen soone Bernaert Geberiel… (dies 15 May 1684 written in the margin) etc etc until the last, a daughter
called Isabella Juana in December 1666. The last birth registered, a son called Pieter Lowys, (1673) is written
in the margin. Other marginal notes continue till 1686, the year of Arandas death. These notes on the family
seem to be Aranda’s own.
After a non-numbered title page follows the text of the story itself. This is written in the sma ehand as the
preliminaries on identical paper, this time contemporary numbered. The text ends, signed by Aranda, but
is not dated. The language used seems to me an uncertain Flemish.
The text tells in much detail of the capture and later the slavery of Aranda and other Flemish burgers like
Jonkheer Jean Baptiste van Calven en Reiney Salders. The Christian slaves are sold at an open market.Their
new master is Alli Pegelin. The boss of Pegelin at his turn is the Bassa. There are thousands of Christian slaves
in Algers at the time. Their owner might use them in his galleys (not Aranda), to build houses on top of a
hill where even the mules can not come; grind corn for the mistress of the house (until Aranda makes a move
at another lady, than he is back building houses, cutting trees). There are incidents of severe maltreatment
like being whipped, and fist blows on the head. There is little food.
But overall there is a relatively free life, a mixture with other slaves, regular talks with the slaveowner (who
hopes the slave is rich and will eventually yield a large ransom) and there is a continuous process of negotiations
on small favours. For example Aranda borrows money (100 patacons) from an Italian who will get his
money back in Antwerp with a 25 % mark up. The money allows Aranda to find a place to sleep in a room
with fresh air.
Than two Turkish (Muslim) slaves come from Antwerp send by the family , bringing moving letters, to take
the places of Aranda en Caloen, and also to free a Turkish slave, prisoner in Brugge (Belgium). But the
owner wants money and asks for of 2000 patacons (lingua franca) and 500 is offered by Aranda, if he can
leave for Livorno and await his freedom there until the full ransom is paid. Than the local power structure
is shown in that the Bassa calls them in , has them beaten, threats to cut off their ears and noses, demanding
a ransom for himself, not only for the direct owner (Pegelin) (page 50). Aranda argues that there is a law in
the Ottoman Empire, supported by the Great Turk (Sultan in Istambul) that a soldier can always be bought
free, but the Bassa tells him he represents the Sultan here and he is the law.
All in all an authentic, original view into the fate of this one Christian slave in Algiers, a phenomenon which
perdured for centuries and that between 1520 and 1660 alone concerned 400.000 persons.
conclusion
Manuscript text of Kort Verhael, written by Aranda himself (signed twice; ownership history). When it is
written is not completely clear. It could either be the original, after which the French, English and Dutch
version was published (and should than have been written before 1656 and the preliminaries, later added).
An argument in favour is that the original text must have been in Flemish. The original was never found
(Z’rari, page 12) . It can also be a translation in Flemish of the French text, as originally published, by
Aranda as used for the Brugues publication of 1682.

(Anatomy, Painting) Charles BELL Essays on the anatomy of expression in painting. London, Longman,
Hurst, Rees and Orme, 1806. Folio, iii-xii (of xii, lacks half-title), 186, (2) pp., 6 plates (frontispiece and 5
plates numbered I-V); several stipple engraved text-illustrations (1 full-page). Modern half-calf. Little offsetting in places. Very good copy. First edition. Charles Bell (Edinburgh 1744 – Hallow 1842) “introduced new
methods of determining the functional anatomy of the nervous system. … in 1804 Bell moved to London,
where he opened his own school of anatomy and gradually built up a surgical practice. He combined his skill
in painting with his scientific interests in Essays on the anatomy of expression in painting (1806). Besides being
an exposition of the anatomical and physiological basis of facial expression for artists, the book included
much philosophy and critical history of art. The book gained Bell some reputation and remained popular,
going through several editions up to 1893. … Bell was knighted in 1831 in recognition of his scientific
achievement.” (DSB). “Bell’s artistic and literary skills, combined with his knowledge of anatomy and physiology, served to make his essays on the anatomy of expression in painting a tour de force of science, art
history and philosophy. Although the expression of emotions had often been treated by artists, it had rarely
been studied by someone who excelled in both art and science, and never as completely as in the present
work. Bell’s exposition of the anatomical and physiological basis of facial expression impressed Charles Darwin, who mentioned it in his own Expression of the emotions, stating that Bell had laid ‘the foundation of the
subject as a branch of science.’.”(Norman). Norman Library 170; DSB I, 583-584.

1. AITSINGER (EYZINGER),M. Belgici Leonis Chorographia. Das
ist Ein Newe Landt beschreibung des Belgischen Lewen, in XVII
Provincien des gantzen Niderlandts aussgetheylet. (Cologne,
Franz Hogenberg, 1587). Small folio. contemp. limp vellum with
two ties. With engraved symbolic title, folded “Leo Belgicus”-map,
17 maps and 8 portraits, all engraved by Franz Hogenberg. The maps
and portraits on double leaves with text verso. In original vellum, occasionally moister stained.
FIRST AND ONLY EDITION. A German summery of Michael
Eyzinger’s historical and topographical description of the Low Countries
with the famous “Leo Belgicus” map, first published in 1583. In the
matter of an atlas the book describes the 17 provinces and shows
portraits of King Philipp II of Spain, Queen Elizabeth I. of England,
Dutchess Margeret of Parma, the Dukes Alexander Farnese and Ferdinand Alvares of Alba, the Commendatore
Luis Requesnes, Philipp’s brother John of Austria and William of Orange. Fifteen of the provinces are shown
on individual maps, whereas the descriptions of Mechelen and Antwerp are added to the maps of France and
Germany. The atlas includes the folding map showing the entire Low Countries in the shape of a lion. The
splendid “Leo Belgicus” became a symbol of the unity and strength of the 17 Provinces and was the prototype
for numerous similar maps up to the beginning of the 19th century, and is here present in its second state
with coats of arms of Elizabeth of Valois and Anna of Austria and has small letters and numbers next to the
list of the provinces, relating to the grid of the map. Besides the fact that Eyzinger was the first to make use of
the likeness of a lion in the topography of the seventeen provinces, he was also the first to introduce the map
grid as a guide for the user. Though there are copies known without this map one can be sure that Eyzinger
wanted it to be part of the publication, because he mentions the map in the preface to Ernest of Bavaria,
Archbishop and Elector of Cologne.. The 17 smaller maps had been used before in the “Itinerarium Orbis
Christiani”, which was published from 1579/80 onwards and were used again in 1588 in Eyzinger’s 3De
Europae Virginis”. They are engraved by Franz Hogenberg. In the “Chorographia” they appear in their third
state, showing a grid similar to his lion-map. About the symbolic and enigmatic engraved title much has been
speculated. In a circle, there are the coats of arms of England, France and Germany joined by a triangle and
the word “Sacra”, with three wind symbols and Hebrew letters outside the circle. Eyzinger is known for his
special affection to cabbalistic enigmas, as the one inserted at the lower right corner of the lion map proves.

also the material in Bertius’ Tabulae (1600), but from the 2nd. ed. (1602/’03) the sequence of the maps has
been adapted to the ‘Geographia’ of Ptolemaeus. This 3rd. ed. has a more extensive description of Spain than

Bogaerts & R.R. Dodson, s.d. Or. wrapper, 12p. (=24 pages text) and 12 fullpage illustrations. Oblong: 23,2
x 30,5 cm. A very fine copy of this rare vulnerable childrenbook and Belgian avantgarde-item. With lithographed
front- and backcover and illustrations in colour by Floris Jespers! The début of Jan Peeters as an author of childrenbooks;
he was one of the more inspiring founders of the Flemish literature for children; the texts in this edition are pure
games with the language with sound and rhythm for the little children. S. Loots (Vlaamse kinder- en jeugdboeken
van 1830 tot heden. Antwerpen, 1986. Page 152) and E. Rijckaerts (Vlaamse jeugdliteratuur sinds 1832. Brussel Antwerpen, 1979. Page 75) give as year of publication 1923; Griet Carpentier-Lebeer on-the-contrary writes
1915-1916! (Etsen Floris Jespers. Antwerpen, 1984. Page 248.) Gaston Burssens doesn’t mention this issue at all
in his study about Floris Jespers (Antwerpen, 1945); maybe it was already very rare at that moment! Emiel Willekens
uses 2 illustrations of this beautiful book for his contribution in: “De hele Bibelebontse berg”, p. 500. A name on
page 1; otherwise an almost mint copy!

BARTON, Rick An original “Chinese line” painted book in cloth covers, 24 x 18 cm., all painted by hand,
using Chinese line. This drawing measures 24x540 cm. Signed and dated (’61) by Rick Barton
A Beat artist who got famous once (in the 50’s), Rick was a very difficult character. He loved the fame, then
pretended ... ? ... he hated it, more. He didn’t trust it, yet reveled in it. He was always yelling about the “bitch
goddess: success!” Believing that too much fame spoiled art. Classically trained, he bridled at any fuss, yet
craved it like a dope fiend. What Rick wanted is so simple to see now. The man simply wanted someone in
a cafe to recognize the brilliance of his line work, and offer him good money for it. He lost his fame after his
agent left him. That’s all. He was “out of time”. He gave most long books to his lawyer.
Barton grew up as a “Dead End Kid,” on the streets of New York City. His youth was spent reading classic
literature and hanging out all day in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Two men tried for many years to
bring Barton’s artwork to a larger public. Henry Evans, the artist’s first San Francisco agent and publisher,
and Harold La Vigne, his second. There are seven or eight Barton works in the Library of Congress, as well
as the Special Collections division of the San Francisco Public Library. Most of Barton’s painting was
accomplished using small Asian brushes. Rick produced thousands of line paintings this way. In the mid and
late 50’s he was being written up in newspapers as, “The Hokusai Of San Francisco”. Still, he never compromised
for what he called the “art scene” and it must have hurt like hell. That Barton was unwilling to compromise
for the art market is an understatement. He never reacted well to any offers concerning his work, except
offers to buy it outright. He even threatened to knife people for even suggesting, in good faith, that he might
do something commercial. Paradoxically, he spent most of his time talking endlessly about exactly how one
might go about making a living in the arts, while avoiding actually doing so. A real trick. Rick’s anger at the
“injustice” of the art market, “the scene” as he called it, was legendary. He would fly into rages, especially blaming
America for, “not recognizing her artists!” His grief drove him to give away his priceless line drawings in
saloons to people who could little appreciate his genius Barton referred to himself as, “a Black Hat Bonpo
Schismatic Lama”. Barton adopted his title from Tibet’s rich tradition, with his own twist, of course. He was fond
of rendering in pencil and working in oils. Mostly however, Barton did what he called, Chinese line painting.
His ink brushes were capable of very fine lines, from single hair to bold, and Rick used them in combination
with the ultimate trained eye. All of his line paintings were from life. And on paper at least, almost always from
whatever objects and people were in his immediate vicinity. Barton also loved working in cafes. His pieces
contained gardens of potted plants --- palms and philodendrons abounded --- as well as the tabletop in front
of him, including ashtrays crowded with stubbed out cigarettes, with matches of course. He painted hundreds of knives, forks and spoons, as well as glasses, cups, sugar shakers and portraits.
Many of his paintings repeated, again and again, Barton’s signature statement: his hand drawing his own
hand. He worked toward, “finding the line,” as he put it. That is, working the brush and ink for hours as a
form of intimately detached meditation, seeking singularity of eye, hand and heart, until his brush moved
over the paper like a planchette traversing a Ouija board.
Oils aside, Rick Barton’s first love was always Chinese line painting. Comparing his passion for Asian scrolls and
his horror of Western artists he called: “Schmieranski’s!” (German for: “dreadful painters”) Barton was fond of
saying, “Barbarians always bend the paper”. . He was a tall Beat original, stooping for none, not Ginsberg, Corso,
Rexroth, Ferlingetti or any other so-called cultural icon. Not a one of them. Rick Barton was a true artist, and an
amazingly well educated man for having had no formal education. (Quotes from Dave Archer).

Constantijn Huygens the Younger was the son of statesman and poet Constantijn Huygens the Elder and
brother of physician Christiaen Huygens, who invented the wave theory of light. After going to Leiden to
study in 1644, Huygens succeeded his father as secretary to stadtholder Frederick Henry, traveling throughout Europe and keeping the first of many diaries.
In 1672 Huygens became secretary to William III, captain-general of the Dutch armed forces. He accompanied
the stadtholder on campaigns in the North and South Netherlands, France, Germany, Ireland, and England,
where William was crowned king in 1688.

e 900,ANONYMUS. Minutes of court of Policy 1775-1776, 231 pp [+18 pp register]. In contemporary wrappers.
The wrappers are heavily damaged and do have some wormholes. The paper on which the text is written is
browned, but in good condition. The handwriting is elegant and easy to read. This is a manuscript account of
the day to day events of the government in the Dutch colony of Essequebo and Demerary, later British Guyana.
It is written as an account of the meetings of the important governing people of those days. It deals with the
period between May 1775 and November 1776. Present at most of the meetings were G.H. Trotz, former
Governor, (between 1772 and 1774). At the time of this account he was “Directeur-Generaal” . Also mostly
present was P,C. Severijn, military commander since 1774. Another member almost always present was the
“fiskaal” (tax man) A.A. Brown, who held that office between 1774 and 1787. Also often present were the
gentlemen Doedens, Boter and van der Heijden. They all signed these minutes, as did the clerks, who probably
wrote these minutes. From these minutes you get a fairly good idea of what things people of that time thought
to be important. It deals with appointments of government functionaries, The selling and buying of properties
and plantations, but it also deals with the detention of a confused man and some problems concerning slavery.
Dutch-Guyana was the name for the Dutch colonies on the coast of Guyana An important map of this region was in 1599 made by Jodocus Hondius (de Nieuwe caerte van het wonderbaer ende goudrijcke landt
Guiana) and this area was colonised by The Dutch, mainly by people from Zeeland At several places on the
rivers Pomeroon, Essequebo, Berbice, Suriname and other rivers trading posts were established. Here mainly exchange trade with the local Indians took place, and on a small scale the first plantations were founded.
Also the English and French established trading posts here, though life was not easy. A lot of settlers died
from various tropical diseases or attacks by the Indians or other European enemies.
The first attempts to colonise were founded by private persons, often in the form of a private company. After
1621 when the WIC (West Indies Company) was founded the colonies of Pomeroon, Essequebo, Berbice
were part of the territory of the WIC.
Dutch Guyana was not a state, more a geographical location. The colonies that formed Dutch Guyana had
different owners. Essequebo and Demerary were governed directly by the WIC. Other parts of Guyana were
governed by different companies.
The river Demerary, which was part of the colony of Essequebo was opened for exploitation in 1745. In the second
half of the 18th Century the colonies of Essequebo, Demerary and Berbice were thriving. In 1791 the WIC stopped
existing, but still these colonies had record productions in these times. In 1814 The Dutch colonies of Demeraray,
Essequibo and Berbice became British, forming British Guyana. The former Dutch colonists kept their old rights,
and most stayed living there. This is a nice account of Dutch colonial history in Guyana.
e 2.500,HUGENS, Christiaan. (= Huygens).Wereld beschouwer of gissingen over de Hemelsche Aardklooten en
derzelver cieraad. Met noodige wiskunstige afbeeldingen. Uith het Latijn vertaald door P. Rabus. Tweede
druk . Rotterdam, Barend Bos, boekverkoper, 1717. 16,5 x 10 cm. 203 pp. + 6 folded plates. Bound in half
red leather, A bit worn. This book contains the controversial argument in favour of extra-terrestrial life, and
was based on the Copernican theory of the universe. Huygens further assumed that the earth, not being the
centre of that universe, logically would not be the only planet capable of sustaining life as we know it. In the
second part of this work Huygens discussed the different movements of the heavenly bodies and how they
must appear to the inhabitants of the planets. Christiaan Huygens was a brilliant mathematician, engineer,
astronomer and opticien. Some of his most important work was on the pendulum to regulate clocks and on
the improvement of telescope lenses, which led to his discovery of Saturn”s ring. The present work gives a
history of this discovery.

WERKMAN, H.N. - HOT PRINTING. A complete issue compiled by H.N. WERKMAN with one poem
by himself (printed on brown paper), a cover and 2 “hot printing’s” all signed with printed initials “h.n.w.”
in the right under corner. 1935/1937, (4 pp, 3 blanc) [the
cover], 4 leaves (one blanc). 32.1 x 24.9 cm. * Issue compiled
by Hendrik Werkman, of which only a very few are known.
The cover is the very famous print, titled “hot printing” and
printed in a very limited number of copies, and several times
used as the cover for the editions Hot Printing, as it was used
here, the real purpose! Werkman published this hot printing,
in several combinations [mostly 2 prints and 1 or 2 text-leaves],
published in a very small number of copies. This copy contains
the prints HP 11 [profile facing right] and HP 14 [retrospect]
and his text “hoopvol begin 1936”. As it was sent (or distibuted by Werkman on his bicycle) there is one extra fold in the
middle, but that is not very visible. - Overall a very, very fine
example.
THIS IS ONE OF THE EARLIEST APPLICATIONS OF
THE SO-CALLED STENCIL TECHNIQUE. - The series
under the title HOT PRINTING, are realized in 1935 and
1936 and consist of 20 (including the cover) different prints.
which are very rare. These are also the first prints, made by
Werkman in small editions, but comparing them, they are all
unique! With the [cover] print which Werkman gave the name
hot printing was also born the name Werkman used for this
special way of printing for which he is famous all over the
world. - Cat. Hot Printing 35-g1; Zuithoff: Hot printing, pp.
15-20.
To this compilation is added an almost complete set of the hot
printing prints and consist of [numbers according to Jan Martinet]:
1. an extra example of the cover “hot printing”, double page
leaf - spine torn [HP 35-g1];
2. “hot printing” 1: racehorses [HP 35/37-23];
3. “hot printing” 2: men with little dogs [HP 35/37-24];
4. “hot printing” 3: woman in green [HP 35/37-25];
5. “hot printing” 4: porcelain doll [HP 35/37-26];
6. “hot printing” 5: woman with medicine bottle [HP 35/3727];

Not available in the single leaves: “hot printing” 14: retrospect [HP 35/37-36], (but available in the above
mentioned issue); “hot printing” 17: harbour [HP 35/37-39] and “hot printing” 18: composition with playing cards [HP 35/37-40], of which only one copy is known.
All leaves have a very small damage (1-2 square cm.) at the bottom of the leaves and not affecting the image,
due to probably fluid, except (according to the nos above) 6, 14, 16, 17/18, which are in MINT condition.
Also available in this rare and unfindable collection 3 other text leaves, written and printed by Werkman:
“februari aanbieding”, “leve de poëzie” and “gestadige beweging”, all printed on brown paper, aprox. 32.5 x
20 cm.
A remarkable collection and - in my opinion - in very good condition. - As mentioned above: Werkman
created and printed these prints as a number of “illustrations” to distribute them together with some of his
“poems”, but only a very few were distributed in that way. All prints (and also his poems) were printed in
very limited editions. - The collection as offered here is REALLY THE ONLY ONE I KNOW! in private
hand, and in fact in very good condition.
