Uncolored example in a strong impression as published. This is the second plate of the Austria map after Wolfgang Lazius published for the first time in the "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum" after 1595.

In the south with the neighbouring Carintia and Salzburg. Ortelius was born on 14 April 1527 in the city of Antwerp which was then in the Habsburg Netherlands modern-day Belgium. The Orthellius family were originally from Augsburg a Free imperial city of the Holy Roman Empire. In 1535 the family had fallen under suspicion of Protestantism. Following the death of Ortelius's father his uncle Jacobus van Meteren returned from religious exile in England to take care of Ortelius. Abraham remained close to his cousin Emanuel van Meteren who would later moved to London. In 1575 he was appointed geographer to the king of Spain Philip II on the recommendation of Arias Montanus who vouched for his orthodoxy. He travelled extensively in Europe and is specifically known to have traveled throughout the Seventeen Provinces; in southern western northern and eastern Germany e.g. 1560 15751576; France 15591560; England and Ireland 1576; and Italy 1578 and perhaps twice or thrice between 1550 and 1558. Beginning as a map-engraver in 1547 he entered the Antwerp Guild of Saint Luke as an illuminator of maps. He supplemented his income trading in books prints and maps and his journeys included yearly visits to the Frankfurt book and print fair where he met Gerardus Mercator in 1554. In 1560 however when travelling with Mercator to Trier Lorraine and Poitiers he seems to have been attracted largely by Mercator's influence towards the career of a scientific geographer.

Original antique copper engraving published 1612 in the famous Italian text edition of the" Theatrum Orbis Terrarum published by Juan Baptist Vrients in Antwerp. An early and decorative map of the duchy of Burgundy in France by Abraham Ortelius published and printed from 1584 for the first time onwards. Ortelius was born on 14 April 1527 in the city of Antwerp which was then in the Habsburg Netherlands modern-day Belgium. The Orthellius family were originally from Augsburg a Free imperial city of the Holy Roman Empire. In 1535 the family had fallen under suspicion of Protestantism. Following the death of Ortelius's father his uncle Jacobus van Meteren returned from religious exile in England to take care of Ortelius. Abraham remained close to his cousin Emanuel van Meteren who would later moved to London. In 1575 he was appointed geographer to the king of Spain Philip II on the recommendation of Arias Montanus who vouched for his orthodoxy.

Cenomanorum Galliae Regionis Typus. Auctore Mattheo Ogerio. La Mans. on sheet with Neustria. Britanniae et Normandiae Typus. 1594
Antwerp 1595. No binding. Very Good. 375 x 505 mm. in very good condition. Abraham Ortelius' map of two French regions. That on the left is the region of Le Mans with the city at the centre. On the right is Brittany and Normandy. The map was first published in the 'Additamentum' to Ortelius' 'Theatrum Orbis Terrarum' of 1595. This example with Spanish text on the verso is from the 1602 edition of the 'Theatrum'. The Le Mans is derived from a map by Matthaeus Ogerius in 1539. That of Brittany and Normandy from various sources but primarily Gerard Mercator's map of 1585. Van der Broecke cites also Bertrand d'Argentre's 1519-90 map of Brittany from 1588 and Lezin Guyet. This is an example of the first state. Abraham Ortelius 1527-98 developed an interest in cartography geography and history at an early age. He began as a 'kaarten afzetter' or illuminator of maps and would purchase single maps from booksellers and colour them for re-sale mounted on linen suitable for wall-hanging. At twenty he was entered in the Guild of St Luke at Antwerp. Ortelius travelled extensively in Europe and maintained regular correspondence with mapmakers historians and scientists acquiring information which was to form his greatest opus the 'Theatrum Orbis Terrarum'. What made the atlas stand out as the first modern atlas was its uniformity. They were produced in a similar style and none of the ancient Ptolemaic maps were included. The atlas was accompanied a catalogue of the authors whose source Ortelius had drawn upon in compiling the work. Without this list many cartographers of the day would remain unknown to us today. From its first appearance in 1570 the 'Theatrum' was far more comprehensive in scope than any contemporary work. In all over forty different editions were published with text in Latin Dutch German French Spanish English or Italian with the maps being frequently revised or replaced. By 1612 when the final edition was published the atlas contained no less than 128 maps. Provenance: private Jersey collection. Broecke 1996 37; Karrow 1993 1/188 & 189; Koeman 1967-70 Ort 28 no. 127. unknown

Chinae olim Sinarum regionis nova descriptio.
Antwerp: Plantin Press 1584. 450 by 540mm. 17.75 by 21.25 inches. Engraved map with hand colour loss to top right margin skilfully reinstated. The earliest printed map to focus on China and the first to illustrate the Great Wall. It was the first western map of China drawn directly from the findings of the Portuguese mapmaker Luis Jorge de Barbuda or Ludovicus Georgius. Barbuda was a Jesuit and he made a manuscript map of China from information on the area gathered by the Jesuit mission. Arias Montanus passed this map on to Ortelius. He issued this first separately published map of China in 1584 which remained the standard map of China for over fifty years. The map is oriented to the west. Japan is shown on a curved projection borrowing from Portuguese sources. Wind wagons are shown in the north a Chinese invention that also became popular in the Low Countries. The text on the reverse of the map is in Latin and gives an insight into the climate national features inhabitants and economy of China at that time. Abraham Ortelius is one of the most famous of the early mapmakers and publishers. His 'Atlas of the Whole World' 'Theatrum Orbis Terrarum' was first published in 1570 the first uniformly sized systematic collection of maps and hence can be called the first 'Atlas'. These beautiful maps were elegantly engraved by Frans Hogenberg. Plantin Press], unknown

Corcyra vel Corfu. "
Greece.: Antwerp Joannem Bapt. Vrientium/ Vrients. 1601. Copper engraved minature map by Phillip Galle of Corfu with galleon & sea monster from" Epitome theatri Orteliani praecipuarum orbis regionum delinaetiones. . Editio ultima" Latin text to verso describing the succeeding map. . Dark impression; printed alightly crooked on the page; upper margin with heading/ title and page number short 8mm-5mm. This edition does not have a title cartouche. The first edition of the"Epitome" in 1577 a reduced format atlas with minature maps of Abraham Ortelius's "Theatrum" is believed to have been the initiative of the engraver Phillip Galle who asked Peter Heyns to write the text. Ortelius had fled to England in 1576 having taken refuge there from Spanish oppression and may have been unaware of the plan of his two friends. The pocket atlas was a a commmercial success and was reprinted several times with Galle adding many new maps and replacing some. Jan. Baptist Vrients bought the rights and plates of the Epitome from Phillip Galle in 1601; he published 4 editions using the Galle plates of which this is the first with Latin text.

Ortelius was born on 14 April 1527 in the city of Antwerp which was then in the Habsburg Netherlands modern-day Belgium. The Orthellius family were originally from Augsburg a Free imperial city of the Holy Roman Empire. In 1535 the family had fallen under suspicion of Protestantism. Following the death of Ortelius's father his uncle Jacobus van Meteren returned from religious exile in England to take care of Ortelius. Abraham remained close to his cousin Emanuel van Meteren who would later moved to London. In 1575 he was appointed geographer to the king of Spain Philip II on the recommendation of Arias Montanus who vouched for his orthodoxy. He travelled extensively in Europe and is specifically known to have traveled throughout the Seventeen Provinces; in southern western northern and eastern Germany e.g. 1560 15751576; France 15591560; England and Ireland 1576; and Italy 1578 and perhaps twice or thrice between 1550 and 1558. Beginning as a map-engraver in 1547 he entered the Antwerp Guild of Saint Luke as an illuminator of maps. He supplemented his income trading in books prints and maps and his journeys included yearly visits to the Frankfurt book and print fair where he met Gerardus Mercator in 1554. In 1560 however when travelling with Mercator to Trier Lorraine and Poitiers he seems to have been attracted largely by Mercator's influence towards the career of a scientific geographer.

ORTELIUS, Abraham
Culiacanae Americae Regionis Descriptio / Hispaniolae Cubae Aliarumque Insularum Circumiacientium Delineatio
Antwerp: Abraham Ortelius 1587. unbound. Map. Uncolored engraving. Image measures 14" x 19.5".<br/> <br/> These two maps on one sheet detail areas of western Mexico above and the Greater Antilles below. Ortelius created them from information compiled by other mapmakers such as Mercator Guttierez and Alsons de Sata Cruz. These sources allowed him to include a wealth of detailed information that is mostly if not entirely accurate. Above the map of western Mexico shows the area around Culiacan and the Spanish settlement of Villa S. Michaels which was notable in the period for its silver mines. It begins at the Yucatan and extends through the Cayman Magnus and the Caymanes. The map below illustrates the Greater Antilles including Cuba Hispaniola Jamaica St. Jois Insula St. Johns the Bahamas Virgin Islands and the Windward Islands all in impressive detail. The section of South Florida also shows suggestion of the Florida Keys which was uncommon for these period. A notable error is that the Tropic of Cancer is labelled as the Tropic of Capricorn. A highly decorative note with strapwork and foliage fills the acific Ocean to the left of Mexico and provides information about the upper map. The lower map also has a framed cartouche with birds perched atop it. Two ship illustrations float in the choppy seas around the islands. The map is a first state from the 1587 French edition of Ortelius's "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum." It is in good condition with no chips or tears. Stain at the center seam in the lower margin not affecting the image some overall stains. French text on verso. Abraham Ortelius 1527--1598 a Flemish cartographer and geographer is widely regarded as one of the important and influential cartographers in history. He is known for his "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum" which was the first modern atlas. This map is an uncommon uncolored example of this wonderful map by Ortelius.<br/> <br/> Abraham Ortelius unknown

Ortelius, Abraham:
Daciarum Moesiarumque vetus descriptio.
Antwerp: Plantin-Moretus 1624. Copper engraving 36 x 46 cms modern hand colour Latin text on verso. Ancient Dacia and Moesia modern Romania and Bulgaria on the Black Sea. Our example was published by Balthasar Moretus at the Plantin Press in the final edition of the Parergon. Ortelius's Theatrum Orbis Terrarum is generally considered the first modern atlas of the world originally published in 1570. Ortelius gathered and selected the best available cartographic knowledge and presented it in a single volume duly credited and finely engraved in a consistent style with explanatory text. The Theatrum was very decorative and hugely popular amongst the wealthy and educated running into over forty editions in Latin and the major European languages. For Ortelius himself however his accompanying atlas of ancient geography the Parergon was a "personal work" Koeman. He seems to have regarded himself first and foremost as an antiquary and rather than copying other people's maps he drew the originals himself; they were subsequently engraved for him by the master engraver Jan Wierix. The results have to be evaluated as the most outstanding engravings depicting the wide-spread interest in classical geography in the 16th century Koeman. Koeman Atlantes Neerlandici Ort 46.
