1. ‘Coppenhagen’ Copperplate engraving of Copenhagen from Johann Christoph Wagner’s work *Delineatio provinciarum Pannoniae et imperii Turcici in oriente. A thorough description of the entire East, but particularly of the highly praiseworthy Kingdom of Hungary and the whole of Turkey.” Published in Augsburg by Jacob Koppmayer in 1685. The view depicts the city and the harbour with a row of large ships in the foreground. A detailed bird’s-eye view and harbour scene of Copenhagen (“Coppenhagen”), showing the bustling activity of sailing ships on the Öresund as well as the city’s distinctive church towers and fortifications in the 17th century. A key to the most important buildings is provided below. The view is modelled on the well-known works of Matthäus Merian the Elder, but is not by Merian. A strip of paper has been added at the bottom right at a later date bearing the incorrect inscription ‘M. Merian excudit 1650’ Size of image: 18 x 34 cm Condition: Handmade paper with watermark, very good 2. "d'Stadt BERGEN in NOORWEGEN" View of Bergen in Norway. The copperplate engraving depicts the battle in Bergen Bay on 12 August 1665. The naval battle was part of the Second Anglo-Dutch War. The heavily laden Dutch fleet sought refuge in the neutral Danish-Norwegian harbour, but was attacked there by the English. The Danish-Norwegian garrison of Bergenhus Fortress sided with the Dutch and fired on the English warships, forcing the English to retreat. From an edition of the famous travel account by Wouter Schouten, published in several editions from 1708 onwards under the title ‘Reys-Togten naar en door Oost-Indien’. This is probably from a 1775 edition. Dimensions size of image: 19 x 28.5 cm Condition: slightly stained at the margins, with old creases as published, otherwise very good
