Netherlands , Hes de Graaf Publishers , 1996. 8 Volumes/8. -- Volumes I-V compiled by Peter van der Krogt and Erlend de Groot; Volume VI compiled by Peter van der Krogt, Erlend de Groot and Martijn Storms; Volume VII by Erlend de Groot; Volume VIII edited by Koert van der Horst -------- A complete descriptive and illustrated catalogue of one of the largest and finest atlases ever assembled. Now housed in the Österreichische Nationalbibliothek in Vienna, the 46-volume atlas is an expanded version of Joan Blaeu's Atlas Maior or 'Great Atlas', published in Amsterdam between 1660 and 1663. Though the core of the atlas consists of the several hundred maps issued by Blaeu, the original owner of the atlas, Laurens van der Hem (1621-1678), added other maps, views, and drawings of his own choice, including four volumes of manuscript maps of Africa and Asia made for the Dutch East India Company (VOC). The practice of augmenting atlases was common in the seventeenth century, but few of these personalized atlases have survived the centuries. The catalogue in 7 volumes (plus a volume about the making of the facsimile) will include all the sheets in the atlas reproduced in black-and-white, with cartographical historical and arthistorical descriptions by P. van der Krogt and E. de Groot. Each volume will contain approximately 16 full-colour illustrations. ***************************** I. Spain, Portugal and France. Descriptive Catalogue of Volumes 1-8 of the Atlas. 1996.
