He produced both terrestrial and celestial globes and his work was known for its accuracy and attention to detail. Johannes Blaeu was also involved in politics, serving as a member of the Amsterdam city council and as a representative to the States General of the Netherlands. He was a respected member of Dutch society and was known for his intellect and scholarship. Overall, Johannes Blaeu was a major figure in the world of cartography and publishing during the 17th century and his work continues to be highly regarded today.
