Dutch Cartographer JOAN BLAEU (1596-1673) came from a family of influential cartographers, makers of globes and atlases, who were associated with the Dutch East India Company. From the blurb: "The original Latin edition, completed in 1665, was the largest and most expensive book to be published during the 17th century. Its 594 maps appearing across 11 volumes spanned Arctica, Africa, Asia, Europe, and America. Ambitious in scale and artistry, it is included in the Canon of Dutch History, an official survey of 50 individuals, creations, or events that chart the most important historical developments of the Netherlands."
