(View) Bucintoro nella Solennita, che si Celbra in Venetia nel giorno dell' Ascensione
List No

Note
"Fine image of the bucentaur, the state barge of the Doge of Venice, making its annual trip to the Adriatic to perform the Marriage of the Sea", by the eminent cartographer Vincenzo Maria Coronelli. The bucentaur or bucintoro in Italian and Venetian was the state barge of the doges of Venice. It was used every year on Ascension Day (Festa della Sensa) up to 1798 to take the doge out to the Adriatic Sea to perform the "Marriage of the Sea" – a ceremony that symbolically wedded Venice to the sea. Scholars believe there were four major barges, the first significant bucentaur having been built in 1311. The last and most magnificent of the historic bucentaurs made its maiden voyage in 1729 in the reign of Doge Alvise III Sebastiano Mocenigo. Depicted in paintings by Canaletto and Francesco Guardi, the ship was 115 feet long and more than 26 feet high. A two-deck floating palace, its main salon had a seating capacity of 90. The doge's throne was in the stern, and the prow bore a figurehead representing Justice with sword and scales. The barge was propelled by 168 oarsmen, and another 40 sailors were required to man it. In 1601 at the behest of the Doge Marino Grimani, the Venetian Senate decided to have a new (third) bucentaur. The designer of the new ship is unknown, but he was selected from among the most qualified marangoni (ships' carpenters) of the Venetian Arsenale. The work was supervised by Marco Antonio Memmo, the sovraprovveditore (overseer of the provveditore) of the Arsenale. The new vessel was approved and praised by all on its maiden voyage to the Lido with the newly elected Doge Leonardo Donato on Ascension Day, 10 May 1606. The third barge was modelled after its predecessors, its decorations influenced by late-Renaissance forms. Contemporary illustrations show that the sides of the bucentaur were covered by mythical figures of sirens riding seahorses, and that the loggias were supported by curved dolphins amongst intertwined garlands and scrollwork taking on the form of monstrous hydras extending from the ends of the two bow spurs. It was once believed that most of the wooden sculptures, including a large sculpture of Mars, two lions of St. Mark positioned on either side of the stern, and the figurehead of Justice (dressed in apparel made by the San Daniele Monastery), were the work of the renowned Venetian sculptor Alessandro Vittoria, but research has revealed the names of the brothers Agostino and Marcantonio Vanini of Bassano who were praised as "authors of carvings of marvellous beauty" After more than a century of service, in 1719 a decision was made to demolish the ship. Vincenzo Maria Coronelli (1650-1718) was one of the leading cartographers and globe-makers of the Baroque era. Born in Venice, he apprenticed as a xylographer, before joining the Franciscan order in 1665. Around 1678, after studying Astronomy, Coronelli began working as a geographer and was commissioned to make a set of Terrestrial and Celestial Globes for Ranuccio II Farnese, the Duke of Parma, which were 5 feet in diameter. Coronelli was next invited to Rome to construct a similar pair of Globes for Louis XIV. From 1681 to 1683, Coronelli lived in Paris, where he constructed a pair of 10 foot diameter globes for the King that weighed 4000 pounds. These spectacualr globes are today on display at the Bibliotheque nationale de France (Paris). Coronelli then returned to Venice where he published his great atlas, the Atlante Veneto (1698) and founded the Accademia Cosmografica degli Argonauti, the world's first geographical society."

The rivers have been necessarily straightened to indicate the lengths of the rivers. The compass orientation of the flowing stream is indicated by small north-pointing arrows periodically drawn adjacent to the stream. Includes table of the Length of Rivers in British Miles. A textual description of the rivers accompanies the illustration; it describes the course of the Missouri River, "recently explored by the Americans" (Lewis and Clark), as being "extremely devious". Beautiful color.

Third edition. A colorful rendering of comparative mountain heights worldwide, although separated into the Western and Eastern Hemispheres. Other aspects of the illustration (with the exception of showing volcanoes) appear to be fanciful. Substantially more taller mountains than an earlier edition (see our although dates uncertain because the date of 1816 is the same. The peaks are listed, each with a unique number which can be matched up with the numbers at the top and bottom of the illustration. By making a line between the numbers, the corresponding peak is intersected. Latitudes, sources, and altitudes also listed.

William Westall was a Royal Academy artist appointed to Matthew Flinders voyage at 19 years of age. His method of drawing topographical views was to rule up his drawing sheets in a grid pattern to obtain an accurate perspective. "After Flinders' 'Investigator' was condemned as unseaworthy at Sydney in 1803, ending his Australian survey, he embarked with Westall as passengers in HM sloop 'Porpoise' to return to England, in company with the storeship 'Cato' and the Indiaman 'Bridgewater'. They sailed on 10 August 1803 but on the 17th both 'Porpoise' and 'Cato' ran aground 800 miles north of Sydney, on a sandbank subsequently known as Wreck Reef (or Reefs), part of the Great Barrier Reef. Both were quickly holed by coral and the larger 'Cato' broke up. Three men were lost but everyone else escaped onto a nearby dry bank, where they camped as shown in the painting, having salvaged what they could (including many but not all of Westall's drawings). The grounded and dismasted hull of the 'Porpoise' (a Spanish-built packet schooner captured in 1799) can be seen at far left. The 'Bridgewater' sailed on and later reported both ships lost without survivors. After nearly ten days without sign of help, Flinders then sailed back to Sydney in the 'Porpoise's' cutter and returned with the 29-ton schooner 'Cumberland', the schooner 'Frances' and the East Indiaman 'Rolla', which was bound for Canton, to pick people up. The 'Frances' took a few people back to Sydney: the majority, including Westall, went on to China in 'Rolla' as the next stage homeward. He first did some brief work there and then more during three months at Bombay before reaching England again in 1804. Flinders sailed directly from Wreck Reef for England with a selected volunteer crew in the 'Cumberland', but was detained on Mauritius as a prisoner of war for nearly six years after putting in there for repairs, owing to the schooner's leaky condition. Although Flinders had a French passport, this had been made out for 'Investigator', not personally for him and his crew in any other ship, and his high-handed approach to General Decaen, the French governor (who decided to treat him as a spy), was not well calculated to gain co-operative and early release. He only reached England again in October 1810. The image was engraved as one of the plates in Flinders ‘A Voyage to Terra Australis' (1814, and also separately published that year in Westall's 'Views of Australian Scenery'). It is the last plate in vol. 2, illustrating the dated journal text about the incident." (Royal Museums Greenwich catalog ZBA7935)
