Antique Map of the Vermandois Region 'Picardy' in France by Janssonius, C.1640
About the Item
Antique map titled 'Vermandois'. Old map of the Vermandois region, France. Vermandois was a French County that appeared in the Merovingian period. Its name derives from that of an ancient tribe, the Viromandui. In the 10th century, it was organised around two castellan domains: St Quentin (Aisne) and Péronne (Somme). In today's times, the Vermandois County would fall in the Picardy region of northern France. This map shows the cities of S. Quintin, Channi, Noyon, Perone, Lafere and others.
Artists and Engravers: Johannes Janssonius also known as Jan Jansson (1588-1664) was born in Arnhem, Netherlands. His father was a bookseller and publisher (Jan Janszoon the Elder). When he married the daughter of the cartographer Jodocus Hondius he also set up a business as book publisher in Amsterdam. His first map was published in 1616. Around 15 years later he set up a partnership with his brother in law Hondius add issued further editions of the Mercator/Hondius atlas. After his death his heirs still have published several maps. Many of his plates have been acquired by Pieter Schenk and Gerard Valk.
