About This Item
Double page engraved map (24 1/2" x 21"), hand colored, wide margins, decorative title cartouche. Some small chips or tears in margins, not affecting image, split repaired in lower margin at centerfold, about 1 1/2", some slight creasing at center of map, normal aging and browning; still a very attractive map with a crisp impression. Nicholas Visscher (1587-1637) started the Visscher map dynasty, which was continued by his son and grandson, also named Nicholas. The family was a dominant force during the golden age of Dutch mapmaking. The present map is of the southern part of Holland, and is illustrated with an attractive title cartouche in the lower left corner. Van De Gohm p 148.
