La fascination pour les cartes tend à faire oublier le travail qui précède la production de ces images si particulières. Elles sont pourtant le fruit de multiples opérations savantes et politiques : relevés de terrain, collecte de données, choix d’échelle, de signes, de couleurs, d’impressions. Cet ouvrage aborde l’histoire de la cartographie du XVe au XXIe siècle par le biais non pas des productions elles-mêmes, mais des auteurs de ces cartes. Qui les commande, les conçoit, les dessine, les signe ? Qui est le cartographe ? Quelle est sa place dans la société, quelles sont ses relations avec les détenteurs du pouvoir ? Sans préjuger de l’unité d’un métier de cartographe, l’ouvrage essaye de cerner les diverses figures, les constantes et les évolutions de cette activité dans l’Europe moderne et contemporaine. Pourquoi et comment mathématiciens et astronomes, marins et hydrographes, humanistes, topographes, explorateurs, militaires, artistes, ingénieurs et informaticiens dressent des cartes. Producteurs d’un savoir spatialisé, ils donnent à voir un monde qui est une construction. Et cette construction se comprend d’autant mieux que l’on parvient à en connaître les auteurs.

The dal Pozzo print collection was unique in its scope and organisation. Some 3,000 prints are known, in fourteen albums and many loose impressions mainly divided between the British Library and the Royal Library at Windsor Castle. Acquired from the flourishing printmaking industry of the time, the prints assembled by Cassiano dal Pozzo (1588-1657) and his younger brother Carlo Antonio (1606-89) were largely documentary and carefully ordered by subject matter: costumes, religious processions and ceremonies, tombs and catafalques, portraits, social and humorous subjects, architecture, topography, maps and military engagements. This second and final part of the catalogue presents the architectural, topographical and military prints. Over 750 prints are devoted to ancient and modern Rome: from an album entirely dedicated to St Peter's - the largest building project of the day - to another covering the major pilgrim and other churches in Rome, including exterior views, plans, altarpieces and statuary. The palaces and villas of Rome are also well represented, including Falda's famous Palazzi di Roma, while the ancient city is evoked through two compilations of sixteenth-century prints: Hieronymous Cock's Roman ruins and the Speculum Romanae Magnificentiae with many reconstructions of ancient buildings. The collection stretched well beyond Rome however, and included architecture in other Italian and European cities (including Rubens's Palazzi di Genova and Perret's engravings of the Escorial). The European theatre of war is represented in over 600 prints recording major sixteenth- and seventeenth-century military engagements: an extraordinary assemblage that testifies to the popularity of this genre of printmaking that not only celebrated victory but provided information to convey news of military events. This ground-breaking catalogue will be an essential resource not only for students of prints, but for all those studying European visual culture in the seventeenth century.
