Antique Map of the Northwestern Netherlands, incl Texel and Vlieland, ca.1741

About the Item

Antique print, titled: 'Tabula Comitatus Hollandiae in Praefecturas sua distributa; cui adjuncta est Provinc. Ultraiectina et maxima pars Geldriae summo studio delin. Et aeri incidit Mathaeus Seutter.' This map is a near exact kopy of the second state of ‘Hollandiae Comitatus’ by Casper Specht, as was published by Reinier and Josua Ottens, which appeared between 1725 and 1750. According to the autheur Seiffert, Seutter engraved his own maps. Decorative elements such a a title cartouche were however engraved by artists. This map appeared in two editions. The top left corner shows an inset map of the islands Texel and Vlieland. Just below the inset map a harbour scene is shown. Source unknown, to be determined. Artists and Engravers: Made by 'Matthaeus Seutter' after an anonymous artist. Mattias Seutter (1678-1756) was an engraver, globe-maker and map publisher from Augsburg. He was a pupil of J.B. Homann in Nuremberg. Seutter was awarded the title of Imperial Geographer by Karl VI in 1731, and his son-in-law T.C. Lotter took over the business in 1758. He made several atlases as a folio-atlas in two versions in 1720, the most comprehensive Atlas Geographicus counted 46 cards and was reprinted several times.

Antique 18th Century Map of the Province of Pensilvania 'Pennsylvania State'
Located in Philadelphia, PA
A fine antique of the colony of Pennsylvania. Noted at the top of the sheet as a 'Map of the province of Pensilvania'. This undated and anonymous map is thought to be from the Gentleman's Magazine, London, circa 1775, although the general appearance could date it to the 1760's. The southern boundary reflects the Mason-Dixon survey (1768), the western boundary is placed just west of Pittsburgh, and the northern boundary is not marked. The map has a number of reference points that likely refer to companion text and appear to be connected to boundaries. The western and southern boundaries are marked Q, R, S, for example. A diagonal line runs from the Susquehanna R to the Lake Erie P. A broken line marked by many letters A, B, N, O, etc., appears in the east. There are no latitude or longitude markings, blank verso. Framed in a shaped contemporary gilt wooden frame and matted under a cream colored matte. Bearing an old Graham Arader Gallery...
