Located in Norton, MA
Large Spain Castilla Robert De Vaugondy 1751 1st Edition -Colored- Ric.a001 Coming from a family of cartographers, a descendant of the famous Nicolas Sanson and ordinary geographer of the king, Gilles Robert de Vaugondy makes himself known by his maps of the French provinces. He published an Essay on the History of Geography (1755) from which he excluded the physical geography "too systematic". After a Small Atlas (1748), he draws a universal Atlas (1758), a portable Atlas (1762). His Atlas of the revolutions of the globe remains unpublished. His warnings and prefaces, his book reviews reveal a Cartesian mind and solid knowledge. Very early, he associates with his works his son Didier who publishes, since 1742, the methodical tables of Nicolas Sanson, two Globes, one terrestrial, the other celestial (1752). He is credited with a map of Poland...

1633 Map Entitled "Beauvaisis Comitatus Belova Cium, Ric.0002
Located in Norton, MA
1633 map entitled "Beauvaisis Comitatus Belova Cium," Hand Colored Ric.0002 Description: Cartographer : - Hondius, Henricus 1587-1638 Artists and Engravers:Jodocus Hondius, one of the most notable engravers of his time. He is known for his work in association with many of the cartographers and publishers prominent at the end of the sixteenth and the beginning of the seventeenth century. A native of Flanders, he grew up in Ghent, apprenticed as an instrument and globe maker and map engraver. In 1584, to escape the religious troubles sweeping the Low Countries at that time, he fled to London where he spent some years before finally settling in Amsterdam about 1593. In the London period he came into contact with the leading scientists and geographers of the day and engraved maps in The Mariner\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s Mirrour, the English edition of Waghenaer\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s Sea Atlas, as well as others with Pieter van den Keere, his brother-in-law. No doubt his temporary exile in London stood him in good stead, earning him an international reputation, for it could have been no accident that Speed chose Hondius to engrave the plates for the maps in The Theatre of the Empire of Great Britaine in the years between 1605 and 1610. In 1604 Hondius bought the plates of Mercator\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s Atlas which, in spite of its excellence, had not competed successfully with the continuing demand for the Ortelius Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. To meet this competition Hondius added about 40 maps to Mercator\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s original number and from 1606 published enlarged editions in many languages, still under Mercator\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s name but with his own name as publisher. These atlases have become known as the Mercator/Hondius series. The following year the maps were reengraved in miniature form and issued as a pocket Atlas Minor. After the death of Jodocus Hondius the Elder in 1612, work on the two atlases, folio and miniature, was carried on by his widow and sons, Jodocus II and Henricus, and eventually in conjunction with Jan Jansson in Amsterdam. In all, from 1606 onwards, nearly 50 editions with increasing numbers of maps with texts in the main European languages were printed. Summaries of these issues are given under the entry for Gerard Mercator. Jodocus Hondius the Elder * 1588 Maps in The Mariner\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s Mirrour (Waghenaer/Ashley) * 1590 World Map...

OriginaAntique 17th-Century Map of Guizhou Province, China – (Qveichev) by Blaeu
Located in Langweer, NL
Title: Antique 17th-Century Map of Guizhou Province, China – "Qveichev" by Blaeu, Richly Illustrated and Colored Description: This remarkable map of Guizhou Province, historically known as "Qveichev," was created by Johannes Blaeu and published in 1655 as part of his *Novus Atlas Sinensis*. This atlas, developed in collaboration with Jesuit missionary Martino Martini, marked the first Western attempt at a comprehensive geographic representation of China. Blaeu’s map offers a detailed depiction of the mountainous terrain, rivers, and towns of Guizhou, a province known for its rugged beauty and cultural diversity. The map is adorned with two decorative cartouches, each reflecting the artistic and cultural influences of the time. The title cartouche in the lower-right corner features two figures in traditional Chinese attire, symbolizing the blend of European cartographic mastery and Chinese heritage. The upper-left corner includes a secondary cartouche with an explanatory key, adding a touch of elegance to the map’s functionality. Towns, mountains, and rivers are meticulously labeled in Latin, showcasing Blaeu’s dedication to detail and accuracy. Crafted using the copperplate engraving technique, this map demonstrates exceptional precision. The hand-coloring enhances its visual appeal, highlighting borders and geographic features with vibrant tones. Blaeu’s work is not only a tool for geographic understanding but also a piece of art that embodies the spirit of exploration during the Dutch Golden Age. Guizhou Province, historically known as "Qveichev," is renowned for its breathtaking natural landscapes, rich ethnic diversity, and historical significance. As one of China's most mountainous regions, Guizhou is characterized by dramatic karst formations, lush green hills, and cascading waterfalls. The province is also home to a variety of ethnic minority groups, including the Miao, Dong, and Bouyei, whose traditions, colorful costumes, and vibrant festivals make the region culturally significant. Famous features and important places include Huangguoshu Waterfall, one of Asia's largest and most iconic waterfalls, located near the city of Anshun. Zhijin Cave, a vast karst cave system, is celebrated for its stunning stalactites and stalagmites. Kaili is known as the cultural center of Miao traditions, with picturesque villages and celebrated festivals. Zunyi holds historical importance for the Zunyi Conference, a pivotal event in the Chinese Communist Party's history. Fanjing Mountain, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, stands out for its unique biodiversity and sacred Buddhist sites. Keywords: antique map of China, Guizhou map, Qveichev, 17th-century China map...

Table Low Sofa Vintage 1950s Map Isle of Man John Speed 1610 Thomas Durham 1595
Located in BUNGAY, SUFFOLK
- The juxtaposition of modern design and this ancient map create a unique small table and conversation piece - This is the first map featuring the Isle of Man on its own. - It is also the first map of the Island based on an actual survey, undertaken by Thomas Durham 1595 and was first published by Speed in 1605-1611 and reprinted many times over the next century. This is the second state or print from 1610. The map is inset within a fruitwood box frame with a glass top. Supported by tapering stick legs. The map is based on a survey (and presumably a MS map) by Thomas Durham, of whom nothing is known other that he was paid by Sir Thomas Gerrard to make a survey of the Island. This survey, almost certainly for military purposes, arose from the disputed possession of the Island during which time Elizabeth had assumed control in order to prevent the Scots or the Spanish from using the Island as a base. Speed had used the Durham Map in his slightly earlier 4-sheet wall map showing invasions and battles of c1603/4 [ref: Shirley #261] - there are some differences from this 1605/10 map - Port Eran (rather than Earn on 1605);Knockalo point (= Contrary Hd) not on 1605;Spalbrecke shown west of Calf rather than E as on 1605/10. Thus it is possible that the Durham Map had even more detail than Speed used in his derived version. In sea are four mythical beasts with riders: to NW of Island Unicorn with Scottish flag...
