Highly Detailed Antique Map of Brabant, Province of the Netherlands, ca.1700

About the Item

Antique print, titled: 'Brabantiae Batavae Pars Occidentalis : sive Antuerpiensis Tetrarchiae Pars Septentrionalis comprehendens Baroniam Bredanam, Marchionatum Bergensem ad Zoman aliasque minores ditiones.' Highly detailed map of the region between Bergen Op Zoom, Breda, Hoogstraten and Sandvliet, The Netherlands. Published by Pieter Schenk c. 1700. Artists and Engravers: Made by 'Nicolaes Visscher' after 'Pieter Schenk'. Made by an anonymous engraver after 'N. ten Have'. The Visscher family were art and map dealers in Amsterdam during the 17th century. Funded by C. J. Visscher (1587-1652), the business was continued by his son and grandson both named Nicolas. Nicolas Visscher I was born 1618 in Wenns, Austria. He died 1679 in Linz. After the death of Nicolas II, his widow passed the business to Pieter Schenk. Pieter Schenk / Petrus Schenck ( 1660-1718/19) was born in Germany, but settled in Amsterdam where he first became a pupil of Gerard Valck, the engraver. In 1687 he married Valck's sister and thereafter the Schenk and Valck families were active over a long period with a wide range of interests as print sellers, publishers of books, maps, topographical and architectural drawings and globes. Although they produced some original maps, most of their atlases consisted of printings from revised and re-worked plates originally by Jansson, the Visschers, the Sansons and others. Peter Schenk the Younger (1693-1775) was a Dutch engraver and map publisher active in Amsterdam and Leipzig. Condition: Good, given age. Minor paper separation lower middle fold; repaired.

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...
