Very Old Original Antique Map of The City of Douai in France, ca.1575
About the Item
Antique Map of Douai (France) titled 'Duacum, Catuacorum Urbs, tam situ, quam incolis, et litterarum studijs elegantissime ornata'.
This map depicts the city of Douai (France) and originates from 'Civitates Orbis Terrarum'.
Artists and engravers: Franz Hogenberg (1533-1588) was the son of a Munich engraver who settled in Malines. He engraved most of the plates for Ortelius' Theatrum and the majority of those in the Civitates, and may have been responsible for originating the project. Worked and died in Cologne/Germany. He was a prolific copper engraver and etching artist of maps and town views. In cooperation with Georg Braun he created the first four volumes of the Civitates Orbis Terrarum in 1572. The fifth and sixth volume was created by Simon van den Neuwel (Novellanus). Georg Braun (1542-1622), a German publisher and Frans Hogenberg issued the famous six volume town book "Civitates Orbis Terrarum" between 1572 and 1618. The volumes originally published in Latin, follow by German and French translations.
