Jean van Keulen, 1720. Grand folio. Including 16 double-page rare charts of the Mediterranean and 94 pages with text in French in two columns. The charts are showing the coasts of Granada, Catalonia, Provence, Italy, Dalmatia, Greece, the Aegean, Cyprus and the northern coast of Barbary. Numerous woodcut coastal profiles and smaller detail charts in the text. Analytical list of the charts: The van Keulen family operated a chart-making and publishing firm in Amsterdam for nearly 200 years. Johannes van Keulen had the opportunity to obtain copperplates, privileges and stocks of many of his competitors like Blaeu, Janssonius, Hondius as they had either closed down, or were at the end of their fame. Based on this material he produced between 1681 and 1684 the monumental ZeeFakkel charting in five volumes and 137 charts the seas of the world. Here we offer the third part of a French edition of the Zee-Fakkel originally published in 1682 in Dutch with 17 charts. The "Le Grand & Nouveau Miroir ou Flambeau de la Mer" follows the prototype of pilot guides. Texts with navigation guidelines are followed by charts of the coasts. Chapters with sailing directions devoted to each section and woodcut coastal profiles are interspersed throughout the text. The current copy includes the engraved title page, featuring a classical maiden holding a shield, bearing a cross and half fleur de lys, and a torch (the "Flambeau de la Mer") to illuminate the scenery. To the right are Mercury and Neptune examining a compass, and a female figure representing Geography with terrestrial and celestial globes. The part of the title text has been replaced by the current publication’s text “Imprime a Amsterdam par / Jean Van Keulen / Marchant Libraire de Cartes Marines / ou Hydrographique de Arballestrille & D Instruments pour la Navigation, Demeurant a L Orient du Pon neuf ou Pilotte Couronne, l’ 1720 / Avec Privilege pour 15 annees” Binding: Full contemporary vellum.
