LA CROIX, Sieur De<\/p>\n
Paris, 1645<\/p>\n
Encompassing study of the Ottoman Empire in the late 17th century, at a time when its power in Europe was waning, but it remained a force to be reckoned with. “According to the Gennadius Library, this was translated by Petis de la Croix and edited by La Croix. In fact the privilege is ceded to La Croix, former secretary of the French embassy at Constantinople. It seems likely that there must be a family connection between the two, although the original family of Petis de la Croix was Petis, not La Croix” (Atabey). The Atabey copy (3 volumes only) commanded \u00a315,000 at Sotheby’s in 2002 (lot 646).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
