‎Antwerp: Gielis Coppens van Diest 1570. Single sheet matted 13 5/8 x 19 4/8 inches to the neat line full margins showing the platemark. A fine engraved map with Latin text of the Indian Ocean with the title in a fine strapwork cartouche lower left and armorial device upper left decorated with fine mermaids sea monsters and ships with "cum Privilegio" lower right all surrounded by a broad decorative border minor restoration to the lower portion of the central vertical crease. First edition and a attractive copy of an early map to show India China Japan a portion of the Western coast of America including several mythical names in California and the Islands of the Indian Ocean including the Northern coastline of New Guinea described as being part of the southern continent also showing Beach and other information drawn from Marco Polo. From the first edition of Abraham Ortelius's celebrated "Theatrum orbis terrarium." which he compiled using his many contacts in the growing network of European cartographers to secure the best existing maps. "Indiae Orientalis." is based upon Mercator's world map of 1569 which he then had re-engraved by the talented Flemish artist Frans Hogenberg 1535-90 so that it conformed to a standard format and graphic style. Abraham Ortelius first published his atlas "Theatrum orbis terrarium" in 1570 and as Rodney Shirley noted in his study of world maps ushered in an era when "pre-eminence in map publishing was transferred from Italy to the Netherlands leading to over a hundred years of Dutch supremacy in all facets of cartographical production." Ortelius was a true pioneer in map publishing and his innovations brought momentous changes to the world views of contemporary Europeans. Little is known about his training and early career but his true accomplishment was the publication of the "Theatrum". The result was an atlas that was truly without precedent. Previously collections of maps had been assembled into book form but none conformed to the modern definition of the geographical world atlas. Map. [Antwerp: Gielis Coppens van Diest, 1570]. unknown‎

Ortelius's �Theatrum Orbis Terrarum� is generally considered the first modern atlas of the world originally published in 1570.

‎Maris Pacifici‎

‎Antwerp 1595. quod vulgo Mar del Zur 1595. Double-page engraved map. The Maris Pacifici map was first issued in 1590. It is based upon Gerard Mercator's world map of 1569 with details from 25 Portuguese manuscript maps of Bartolomeo de Lasso which Plancius obtained and later used for his own world map. Ortelius shows the Moluccas and the Philippines already the site of considerable Dutch activity and a misshapen Japan. An odd ‘Isla de Plata’ appears above Japan. Guam ’Isla de Ladrones’ is shown. New Guinea appears very different to Ortelius' world map of 1588 suggesting he may have drawn additional information from an unrecorded voyage. Among other notable features it is detached from Terra Australis. The Solomons or Melanesia are located as are some of the islands of Micronesia. This was the first map to focus on the Pacific Ocean. The map reflects a much smaller body of water than the true size of the Pacific. The treatment of America and most notably the Northwest Coast is reminiscent of Hondius' America. This map and the Hondius and Le Clerc rare map of 1589 known only in the 1602 edition have a curious and not fully understood relationship as to which is truly the first map of the Pacific although because no example of the 1589 Hondius-Le Clerc has been discovered this map retains primacy. Ortelius' ‘Theatrum Orbis Terrarum’ is widely regarded as the first modern atlas. At the time of its publication it was the most expensive book ever produced. Between 1570 and 1612 it was issued in 31 editions and seven languages. The present example is the first state of the map appearing in the 1595 Latin edition.

A version of the truth perhaps as Charles reinstated the deposed Hafsid Sultan but a Spanish governor resided at Goletta for a generation. The map was first published in 1570 just after the city had fallen into Ottoman hands and although it was briefly recaptured Tunis had been Ottoman for 20 years by the time our example of the map was published.
