Main Heritage Shelves General PK629 .A58 1778 Book Item-ID: i19660200 BIB-ID: 1779918 Text in Persian and translation in Latin From the library of the great Königsberg Oriental scholar Peter van Bohlen (1796-1840) with his notes and underlinings in black and auburn ink throughout. His autogr. ownership on the title page is dated "Halle 1821", marking this as an early acquisition of scholarly literature by the former tailors apprentice, batman, ships scullion, waiter, and footboy after having graduated from the Hamburg Johanneum in 1821. Later in the collection of the Dresden mathematician and librarian Carl Kuschel (1814-99); his autogr. ownership on t. p.; his acquisition note on pastedown: "Hocce Bohlenii exemplar im meam migravit bibliothecam die 10mo Aprilis 1844 (constat 15 gr. arg.)". Subsequently in the collection of the Halle historian and orientalist Gustav Friedrich Hertzberg (1826-1907); his autogr. ownership on t. p. Sold by Harrassowitz to the Zurich printer and publisher Friedrich Paul David Bürkli (1818-96) in 1895, a year before his death (his autogr. ownership to t. p.; his bookplate on pastedown). Bürkli took an avid interest in the history and culture of the orient and amassed a vast library on the subject. His collection, numbering some 1500 titles, passed almost entirely to the Zurich Municipal Library (now in the Zurich Central Library). Show less

Show morePasini was one of the most highly acclaimed orientalist painters working in Paris in the second half of the Nineteenth century. In 1855 the opportunity to travel to Arabia arose. At the height of the Crimean war, in an effort to counteract Russian influence in Persia, the diplomat Prosper Bourré led an official French mission to the court of Nasser al-Din Shah in Tehran. The written account was to be prepared by Joseph-Arthur, Comte de Gobineau (1816-1882); Pasini was invited on the journey to make the visual record. The mission crossed to Alexandria from Marseilles and embarked at Suez on the East Indiaman Victoria bound for Bushire. They put in at Jeddah (where they met Kemal Pasha, Guardian of the Holy Shrines at Mecca and Medina), then Aden, and Muscat (where they had an audience with the Sultan, Syed Said), before crossing the Gulf. From Bushire they travelled north to Shiraz, Isfahan, and Tehran. Pasini remained at the Shah's court, before returning to Paris in 1856. In 1859 Pasini published this album as pictorial record of the mission. Gobineau published his written account in the same year: Trois ans en Asie, de 1855 à 1858 (Paris: 1859. 8vo).
