About the Item
Antique map titled 'Arabia Petraea et Deserta.' Arabian desert with present day Israel, Jordania, Iraq. With decorative cartouche showing dromedaries. This authentic print originates from: 'Notitia orbis antiqui, sive geographia plenior', by Christoph Cellarius, ed. published in Leipzig by Johann Frederick Gleditsch in 1731-32. Ref. Brunet I, 1724. Ebert 3868. An early standard work on the geography of Classical Antiquity first published in 1686. Artists and Engravers: Author: Christoph Cellarius (1638 - 1707) or Christopher Keller was a German scholar, historian and textbook publisher. Cellarius held academic positions in both Weimar and Halle. Cellarius's most important work was his 1683 publication of 'A Universal History Divided into an Ancient, Medieval, and New Period.'

It had great impact on the way future historians would interpret the past.

In 1687 the business was passed on to Nicolas and the profits increased after he took over the firm. Nicolas de Fer was a prolific cartographer who produced atlases and hundreds of single maps. He eventually became the official geographer to King Louis XIV of France and King Philip V...
