Jodocus Hondius (1563-1612) was the founder of a prolific map publishing business, which helped to propel the Dutch dominate 17th c. cartography. When Jodocus the elder died in 1612, his wife Colette ran the business until their sons came of age to join the firm. During this time, their daughter Elisabeth married Johannes Jansson and the two of them helped Colette run the business. Jodocus & Colette's youngest son, Henricus Hondius (1597-1651) later ran the business along with his extended family. Seller Inventory # 309085
