FISCHER VON ERLACH, Joseph Emmanuel (1693-1742). Anfang einiger Vorstellungen der Vornehmsten Gebäude von Wien: Commencement de veues et de façades principales de Vienne. Augsburg: J.A. Pfeffel, [1719].
Oblong folio (284 x 416mm). Two double-page engraved titles, and 27 double-page engraved plates numbered 4-10, 10a, 11-29/30 by J.A. Delsenbach, C. Engelbrecht, and J.A. Pfeffel, with captions in German and French (Without the privilege leaf, some soiling and browning of margins.) Contemporary half vellum over marbled boards (upper cover damaged).
SCARCE. This is the only engraved work by the younger Fischer. In common with the Duke of Devonshire's copy, sold in these rooms in 1983, this copy lacks a separate privilege leaf called for by the Berlin Katalog. However, the existence of the privilege is mentioned on both the first and second title, the latter reading: Prospecte und Abrisse einiger Gebäude von Wien Vues et façades de quelques Hotels de Vienne. Berlin Kat. 2095.
