$a No illustration is signed. Mortimer states that the sixty illustrations copied from the French edition of 1568 had been drawn by Nicolay, and that in that edition the plates were signed by 'L.D.', the engraver Louis Danet. She adds that ' Ziletti's engraver copied the signature by mistake on one of his plates, leaf D5v' [p.58], but this signature is not present in the Royal Academy's copy. The decorations are also unsigned. This edition is dedicated by Francesco Ziletti to Giacomo Boncompagno, Duca di Sora. |

$a This Italian translation had first been published in 1576, in Antwerp. The French original had been published in 1568 at Lyon (Les quatre premiers livres des navigations - though no more than four were published). (An English translation was published in 1585 as The navigations, peregrinations and voyages, made into Turkie.) In 1551 the author, Nicolas de Nicolay, who was a soldier and a cartographer, had travelled with the French ambassador to Constantinople. This account of his journey is in four books - the first describing the voyage to Algiers, Malta and Tripoli, the second the voyage through the Aegean islands to Constantinople, the third and fourth the people of Constantinople and Hadrianople (not only Turks but also Persians, Arabs, Jews, Armenians, Macedonians and Greeks). Sixty illustrations are copies of the plates of the original edition - which had been the first to show Middle Eastern clothing in detail. But seven illustrations are new to this edition (leaves K4v [p.154] and M2v to the end of the volume [pp. 182, 184, 186, 188, 190, 192]). The illustrations are captioned, and show Turks, Greeks, Arabs and others in distinctive clothing. One of the seven new illustrations shows the Patriarch of Constantinople in street dress. The work also has a title-page vignette (Ziletti's device), headpieces and decorated initials. |
