ILLUMINATED CARTA EXECUTORIA.:Rare patent of nobility issued by Archduke Charles of Austria (later Charles VI, Holy Roman Emperor), fashioning himself Charles III of Spain during the War of the Spanish Succession (1701–1714), conveying the title of Marquess of Callus (in Catalonia) upon Don Jaime Vicente Alamany Descallar, manuscript on vellum, text in Latin, 1711, 290 x 200 mm, 8 leaves bound as a single quire of 4 bifolia.
Collation: i8, the first leaf treated as a blank flyleaf. 22-26 long lines written in brown ink in italic script with one-line roman capitals; headings in larger capitals on ff. 2r-2v; written area: 215 x 125 mm. All text pages decorated with full borders containing delicate brown ink drawings. F. 2r with a cartouche depicting the king on a rearing horse firing a pistol, surmounted by a crown, below him a globe held by two putti and inscribed \"America\", below that the words NOS CAROLUS in a cartouche, all flanked by personifications of the church and the state and other motifs.

Borders of ff. 2v-6v filled with vedute, vignettes, putti, cartouches, and various flourishes similar to those found in engraved writing-master books of the period. F. 7r with the last lines of the text and several notarial attestations. F. 7v blank. F. 8r with a large colored coat of arms surrounded by colored arabesque flourishes. F. 8v blank.

RARE PATENT OF NOBILITY OF \"CHARLES III\" DURING HIS EMBATTLED CLAIM TO THE SPANISH THRONE. On the death of his Hapsburg relative King Charles II of Spain (1661-1700) without a direct heir, Archduke Charles of Austria declared himself the King of Spain, thus occasioning the War of the Spanish Succession, which pitted him against a rival candidate, Philip, Duke of Anjou, grandson of Louis XIV, and a distant cousin of the Archduke. In 1711, when his brother, the Holy Roman Emperor Joseph I, died the Archduke returned to Vienna to assume the imperial crown, while Philip was eventually recognized as King Philip V of Spain. During his brief time as claimant to the Spanish throne, Charles never extended his sphere of influence beyond Catalonia and lived there only from 1705 to 1711.
