Located in Langweer, NL
1700 Guillaume Delisle Map: Western Mediterranean & Moorish North Africa
This hand-colored map from 1700 by Guillaume Delisle, titled "In Notitiam Ecclesiasticam Africae Tabula Geographica," offers a detailed look at the regions under Moorish control during the later medieval period.
It encompasses the northern African coast from Morocco to Libya, the Iberian Peninsula, and the western Mediterranean, including notable islands such as Sardinia, Corsica, Malta, the Balearics, and Sicily, where a smoking Mount Etna is depicted.
The map is embellished with three decorative cartouches, adding artistic flair to the detailed geographical renderings.
Engraved by Jean Baptiste Liebaux, the map measures 25.2 inches wide by 19.1 inches high.
It features a sharp impression with contemporary outline color, later enhanced cartouches, and is printed on a bright sheet with a Society of Jesus watermark.
The condition is very good, with an archivally repaired centerfold separation at the bottom and light toning along the edges.

Beautiful Large Scale Map of Spain and Portugal Published by Herman Moll in 1711
Located in Langweer, NL
Title: A New and Exact Map of Spain & Portugal
Author: Herman Moll
Date: 1711
Medium: Hand-colored copperplate engraving
Herman Moll (c. 1654-1732) was one of the most important London mapmakers in the first half of the eighteenth century. Moll was probably born in Bremen, Germany, around 1654. He moved to London to escape the Scanian Wars. His earliest work was as an engraver for Moses Pitt on the production of the English Atlas, a failed work which landed Pitt in debtor's prison. Moll also engraved for Sir Jonas Moore, Grenville Collins, John Adair, and the Seller & Price firm. He published his first original maps in the early 1680s and had set up his own shop by the 1690s.
Moll's work quickly helped him become a member of a group which congregated at Jonathan's Coffee House at Number 20 Exchange Alley, Cornhill, where speculators met to trade stock. Moll's circle included the scientist Robert Hooke...
