unbound. Map. Uncolored engraving. Map measures 7 1/8" x 10". Frame measures 13 x 15 1/4" This rare, small version of Mercator's map of the Americas is ornately decorated with ships and sea monsters and provides a fascinating insight into conceptions of the New World in the 17th century. First published in Cloppenburg's "Atlas Sive Cosmographicae Meditationes De Fabrica Mundi Et Fabricati Figura," this example of the first state of the map, Latin edition. Islands, settlements are other locations are profusely labeled, and minuscule drawings of hills and trees describe the surrounding terrain. The map contains numerous inaccuracies and inventions, indicative of misconceptions and dreams about the Americas' geography. Most notably, the rendering of California as a peninsula and the open-ended depiction of the Great Lakes point to the continued hope at this time for the discovery of a Northwest Passage. Sea monsters and sailing ships are depicted in the oceans. Latin text on verso. Gerardus Mercator (1512-1594) was an accomplished mathematician, cartographer, globe maker and engraver but is best known for the Mercator Projection. Incorporating the newly accepted fact that the world is round, Mercator was able to render longitude lines consistently straight on a chart. Although this requires some distortion, it was of great use for navigators, and is historically important, as it is still the most commonly used projection today. Johannes Cloppenburg was an Amsterdam-based publisher who produced his first edition of Gerhard Mercator's 'Atlas Minor' in 1630. (Burden 224).…

Elegante carta geografica dello Stato Veneto delimitata da un doppio rigo e dal bordo graduato con l'indicazione della latitudine e della longitudine. Arricchita da due cartigli con il titolo e la scala delle distanze, la piccola mappa presenta un'accurata descrizione dell'apparato fluviale e una ricca toponomastica. Si tratta della versione della mappa inizialmente contenuta nell'Atlas Minor del Mercator-Hondius del 1607 qui incisa da Petrus Kaerius (firma in basso a destra) per l'edizione dell'atlante tascabile di Johannes Janssonius pubblicato nel 1648.Nel 1607 Jodocus Hondius pubblica per la prima volta una versione tascabile dell'Atlas di Gerard Mercator nominandolo appunto Atlas Minor: le mappe si basano in parte sul lavoro Mercatoriano del 1580-90 e in parte sulle mappe dello stesso Hondius pubblicate nel 1606. L'enorme popolarità del formato ridotto e il prezzo inferiore rispetto agli atlanti in folio si riflettè in un enorme successo editoriale e alla pubblicazione di continui aggiornamenti ed arricchimenti. Nel 1648 Janssonius, per il suo atlante tascabile, commissiona una nuova serie di carte geografiche incise da Pieter Van Den Keere (Kaerius) e Abraham Goos due fra i più validi incisori olandesi dell'epoca; queste eleganti carte di questa edizione del 1648 sorprendono, data la ridotta dimensione, per la ricchezza del dettaglio a livello decorativo (cartigli, navi, rose dei venti ecc.) e per la precisione cartografica nei rilievi. Autore: Kaerius Petrus. Luogo: Veneto. Anno: 1648. Tecnica: incisione in rame. Dimensioni: 155x204 mm.…

Hardcover. Condition: vg+. The First Folio Atlas of the Low Countries. With the Famed Leo Belgicus Map.Second Latin edition of the first atlas exclusively devoted to the Seventeen Provinces.The atlas includes a finely engraved title replete with a. Folio. Contemporary stiff vellum with manuscript title to spine reading "Kaerii | German | Inferior." Complete with 24 double-page engraved maps and one double-page engraved plate. (Minor staining to vellum. Corner of X and Kk2 torn, latter including loss to image. Some internal edge fraying of paper. Final blank repaired. Small paste-down to spine. Deaccession stamp to front blank.) The First Folio Atlas of the Low Countries. With the Famed Leo Belgicus Map.Second Latin edition of the first atlas exclusively devoted to the Seventeen Provinces.The atlas includes a finely engraved title replete with allegorical representations of the arts of printing and navigation, the coats of arms of each of the XVII Provinces, and a skull on a sundial acting representing a vanitas motif. Following this are the maps, with 24 double-paged maps embellished with decorative cartouches and small-town views (including the Leo Belgicus map) and a historical plate with views of the local customs.For this 1622 edition (following the 1617 first edition), Petrus Kaerius (also known as Pieter van den Keere) invited Ghent-born Petrus Montanus or Van den Berghe to write the accompanying text to his maps. Montanus was married to a sister of Jodocus Hondius senior, who was in turn also Kaerius' brother-in-law. As such, the text was entirely reset. In addition, "Flandriae pars orientalior" (pl. 10) was replaced by the "Caerte van 't Vrije" by C.J. Visscher while the map "Typus Frisiae orientalis," now with text on the verso, is bound at the end.Leo BelgicusIn addition to being the first folio atlas of the Low Countries, the atlas is perhaps most famous for its inclusion of the second state of Kaerius' Leo Belgicus map, showing the Low Countries in the shape of a rampant lion facing Europe to the right, engraved by Hendrik van Langren (1573-1609).The Leo Belgicus maps are perhaps the most famous examples of cartography as an expression of national pride. The use of the lion image was also suggested by the vaguely leonine shape of the areas themselves. Further, the lion had long figured in the national iconography of Holland and Belgium; most of the coats-of-arms of the countries' Seventeen Provinces feature a lion. Also, the map was a statement of unity, since at the time the Seventeen Provinces comprised a single nation, although under the control of Spain.Petrus KaeriusVan den Keere (Kaerius) was one of the most skilled Flemish engravers of the early 17th century, whose talents were utilized by the English map publisher, John Speed, among others. The Leo Belgicus is perhaps his finest work. Its rich ornamentation includes three couples along the bottom in the characteristic dress of the regions of Friesland, Holland, and Belgium. Tooley notes that Leo Belgicus maps are exceedingly rare, with some examples known in a handful of examples, and in some cases, only a single example.When Kaerius fell on hard times later in the decade, the copper plates for the maps would be sold to Claes Janszoon Visscher.ProvenanceEarly ink ownership to title.Manuscript inscription on verso of first blank reading: "Dan: Part.

Image size: 19.9 x 11.3 cm. (7.83 x 4.45 inch).AKEN-AACHEN-VIEW-GERMANY | E24-04BACKGROUND INFORMATIONPublished in The Netherlands c. 1610.Biography engraver: Plate engraved by the very skilled Pieter van den Keere or Petrus Kaerius (1571-1646), a Flemish engraver, publisher and globe maker.Biography artist: Lodovico Guicciardini (1521-1589): Italian merchant from aristocratic descent. He was born in Florence, a son of Jacopo Guicciardini. His uncle was the famous author Francesco Guicciardini (1483-1540) who wrote 'La historia di Italia'. The Guicciardini family established a presence in Antwerp and in 1541 Lodovico arrived to work with his uncle. At the same time they functioned as informents for the Medici's back home. He stayed until his death. At one point he was accused with his brother Giovan Battista of killing Gaspare Ducci, who they held resposible for their bancruptcy in 1543. Lodovico apparently started writing in 1552 and in 1556 he published his first work 'Comentarii della.', about European history. In 1567 he got the 'Descrittione.' published. He wrote a few more works. In 1569 he landed in jail because he critisized Alva's policies. In 1582 he landed in jail again because he apparently knew Jean Jaureguy, who tried to kill William of Orange, but he was released soon. Although he had been prosperous at times he ended a poor man. Condition: good, given age. Some damp staining, mostly outside image. General age-related toning and/or occasional minor defects from handling. Please study scan carefully.
