About the Item

Antique map titled 'Le Maine'. Old map of the province of Maine, France. It shows the cities of Le Mans, Alencon and others. This map originates from a composite atlas. 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. Condition: Fair, original/contemporary hand coloring. The old color has made the paper fragile and caused a tear on the left part of the map, along the green border line. Latin text on verso, please study image carefully.
