Original Hand-Colored Antique Map of Ancient Germany, circa 1630
About the Item
Antique map titled 'Germaniae Veteris typus'. Very attractive map of ancient Germany. Published by G. Blaeu after A. Ortelius, circa 1630.
Willem Janszoon Blaeu (1571-1638) was a prominent Dutch geographer and publisher. Born the son of a herring merchant, Blaeu chose not fish but mathematics and astronomy for his focus. He studied with the famous Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe, with whom he honed his instrument and globe making skills. Blaeu set up shop in Amsterdam, where he sold instruments and globes, published maps, and edited the works of intellectuals like Descartes and Hugo Grotius. In 1635, he released his atlas, Theatrum Orbis Terrarum, sive, Atlas novus.
