About the Item

Antique map titled 'Tabula Geographica qui Pars Meridionalis sive Superior Rheni, Mosae et Mosellae (..).' Detailed map of the Rhine and Moselle River regions and contigous parts of France and Germany, from one of the leading Dutch map makers of the late 17th and early 18th Centuries. Fully engraved to show mountains, rivers, lakes, streams, forests, lowlands, cities, fortifications, and tiny villages. Source unknown, to be determined. Artists and Engravers: For nearly a century the members of the Visscher family were important art dealers and map publishers in Amsterdam. The founder of the business, C. J. Visscher, had premises near to those of Pieter van den Keere and Jodocus Hondius whose pupil he may have been. From about 1620 he designed a number of individual maps, including one of the British Isles, but his first atlas consisted of maps printed from plates bought from van den Keere and issued as they stood with some additions of his own, including historical scenes of battles and sieges for which he had a high reputation. Some maps bear the latinized form of the family name: Piscator. After Visscher's death his son and grandson, both of the same name, issued a considerable number of atlases, constantly revised and brought up to date but most of them lacking an index and with varying contents. The widow of Nicholaes Visscher II carried on the business until it finally passed into the hands of Pieter Schenk. Condition: Good, given age. Edges and margins partly browned. Bottom margin damp stained. Several creases left side. Original middle fold as issued. General age-related toning and/or occasional minor defects from handling. Please study scan carefully.
