Ulteriore edizione dell'opera, con il titolo "Plans des ports ed des rades de la Mer Méditerranée.." è stampata a Livorno da Carlo Tesi nel 1858.
Incisione in rame, finemente acquarellata a mano, in ottimo stato di conservazione.
Joseph ROUX (Attivo nella seconda metà del XVIII sec.)

Joseph Roux was a Marseilles hydrographer who both published and as well manufactured and sold charts, navigating instruments and related nautical equipment.
At about the mid-century, he received the right to be called "Hidrographe du Roy," and in 1764 published a series of 12 charts of the Mediterranean; he simultaneously published this smaller format atlas of 65 harbor charts. Several editions followed until well into the 19th century, both in France and in Italy, all enlarged. Some were by Roux himself, some were pirated.
Sanderson, The Sea Chart, p. 91, calls this "a popular book," but few examples survive, and all editions are rare
