ORTELIUS Abraham.
Tartariae sive magni chami regni.
Anvers Vrients 1603. . 35.5 x 47 cm. Coloured map of Tartary Japan and the West Coast of North America. Fold. Well-preserved colour example of Ortelius' map of Tartary Japan and the West Coast of North America taken from the 1603 Latin edition of Ortelius' Theatrum Orbis Terarrum the first modern atlas of the world. The Latin text and the page number on the verso reflect this origin. This beautiful map is elaborately decorated with an acanthus leaf border finely wrought strapwork cartouches and flourished italic lettering. Much of the information shown on this map relates to the travels of Marco Polo between 1275 and 1291 with later information gained from the Portuguese Jesuit missionaries of the 1540s in Japan. The map provides a remarkable early representation of what was then the Tartar Kingdom extending from the Caspian Sea in the west to China Japan and Russian Asia in the east. It also includes a remarkable early treatment of the Northwest Coast of America California and the Southwestern part of the US. This is the earliest obtainable map to name California. The map includes further a very curious early treatment of Japan. The country is placed well to the south of its true location so that it appears to stand sentinel across the entrance to the wide Stretto Di Anian which separates China and Tartary from North America. This is also one of the first maps to show a sign of the island of Taiwan labelled here Isola Fermosa. Also of great interest are the marvelous details in Tartary Asian Russia and China including Marco Polo & Prester John notes several vignettes 2 decorative cartouches sailing ships and a sea monster. Several vignettes depict the tents of the Tartar kings. The map is richly annotated in Latin including some lengthier quotes. For instance the one regarding Japan translates as: "The isle of Japan called Zipangri by Marco Polo of Venice formerly called Chrÿse once attacked by the great Khan in war but without success." Keoman - VD Krogt 8050:31 sign. to verso 108. Anvers, Vrients 1603. unknown

ORTELIUS Abraham 1527 1598.
Tartariae sive magni chami regni typus.
Antwerp: Anthonis Coppens van Diest 1573 Single sheet 16 4/8 x 21 2/8 inches full margins showing the platemark. Latin text on verso. Fine engraved map of Russia Tartary and Japan the title and legend within fine mannerist strapwork cartouches the ocean decorated with galleons and a flying fish with fine hand-colour in full. Each succeeding decade following the first New World discoveries created its own revolution of knowledge but a watershed in the growth and illustration of geographical information was the atlas published in 1570 by Abraham Ortelius a businessman native to Antwerp. The Theatrum Orbis Terrarum was the first atlas in the modern sense of the word as Ortelius compiled the best existing maps re-engraved them on a standardized format and included them with text in one volume. This was a landmark innovation and the Theatrum was arguably the first printed production to have a major impact on the world perspective of contemporary Europeans. Despite their relationship as competitors Ortelius and his fellow cartographer Gerard Mercator were close friends and together they represented the major proponents of the most celebrated period in the history of early-modern mapmaking. Ortelius's maps are rightly considered among the most beautiful ever produced and the seamless combination of science and art is nowhere more visible than in his landmark map of Tartary. Although the element that first strikes a viewer is the high visual appeal of the brightly colored and finely engraved map it was in fact an extremely sophisticated summary of the most advanced geographical knowledge of Ortelius's time. Ortelius had gathered maps by the best existing contemporary cartographers including Mercator Giacomo Gastaldi and Olaus Magnus in order to assess the most recent strides in delineating the shape of the continent. As a result of his discerning judgment in sorting geographical fact from geographical fiction this map was ultimately one of the most accurate made available to late 16th-century Europeans. The Kingdom of the Great Khan. Whilst much of the nomenclature is derived from Marco Polo this is one of the first printed maps to attempt to define the relationship between the Continental landmasses of Asia and America in the North Pacific. Shows Eastern Asia beyond the Caucasus with its Eastern coastline including much of Polo's China including the fabled city of Quinzay. Japan appears center right in one of half a dozen outlines used by Ortelius for the archipelago in the Theatrum. Honshu and Shikoku are increasingly well defined with the indented coastline of Kyushu shown as a number of smaller Islands and with the Ryukyus and Formosa to the south. To the north are the fabled Straits of Anian first identified by Gastaldi in 1561 and fortuitously corresponding quite closely with the present-day Bering Strait and still providing the prospect of a northeast passage via Arctic Russia. The Northwest coast of America is shown with the Baja Gulf and peninsula the name California being employed for perhaps the first time on a printed map at its southern tip. Fine example of this popular and influential map. Accompanying the advanced geographical knowledge that the map presented is an amazing wealth of visual detail. The maps of Ortelius boast examples of the most beautiful Renaissance strapwork ever engraved visible in the decorative title cartouche and the dedication which is crowned with two nude allegorical figures. Rightly celebrated for unequalled beauty as much as for outstanding discovery this map represents a monumental moment in the history of mapping. REFERENCES: Van den Broecke 163.

The " Additamenta" were supplements to the original Atlas; at the same time Ortelius replaced some maps with new ones showing the same place; some plates were also reworked . Ortelius was Geographer Royal To Phillip II of Spain from 1575. He also worked closely with Braun & Hogenburg on the "Civitas Orbis Terarum".

Provenance: with the supra libros of the Vicomte Blondel de Vadencourt stamped in gilt in the centre of the front cover and his his coat-of-arms dated 1600 printed on the verso of otherwise blank Privilege page; Ex-Libris Jean R. Perrette his sale Christie's New York 5th April 2016 lot 31. THE FINAL FRENCH EDITION OF ORTELIUS'S THEATRUM WITH A DISTINGUISHED PROVENANCE AND SUPERB COLOUR THROUGHOUT A presentation copy to Antoine Blondel Vicomte de Vadencourt with the margins of each page ruled in red probably in 1600 the date that appears on the coat of arms printed directly onto the verso of the "Privilege" leaf and his supras libros and monograms on the binding. Vadencourt came from a distinguished aristocratic family whose seat was on the banks of the Ouse at Vadencourt or Waudencort. He was an adviser to the Parisian Parliament of Henri IV and died in 1618 without direct heirs. In 1650 the Spaniards destroyed the Vadencourt castle and two years later the village was looted by the troops of the Duke of Lorraine. First published in French in 1572 with only 70 maps on 53 map-sheets this enlarged edition includes a number of important maps. The world map used in this edition is printed from Ortelius's third and final "Typus orbis terrarium" plate Shirley 122:3-1 which greatly improved the delineation of the southwest coastline of South America and depicted the Solomon Islands for the first time. Also included is the landmark map "America Sive Novi Orbis Nova Descriptio" America or New World Newly Described and "Maris Pacifici" the Pacific Ocean which was first included by Ortelius in his "Additamentum" in 1590. It is the first printed map to be devoted to the Pacific Ocean and also includes an early depiction of the west coast of North America Japan and New Guinea. Nova Hispania Mexico and the California peninsula are shown quite accurately for the time. Primarily however the map celebrates the achievements of Magellan the first to traverse the Pacific Ocean and to discover the strait at the southern tip of South America that would come to be named in his honor. Magellan's ship "Victoria" is depicted in the Pacific along with a celebratory Latin inscription. The map is unusually centered on the Pacific itself rather than on any landmass thus showing the ocean in its entirety as it stretches from Asia to America. "All the elements of the modern atlas were brought to publication in Abraham Ortelius' "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum". This substantial undertaking assembled. the best available maps of the world by the most renowned and up-to-date geographers. each of Ortelius' maps was engraved specifically for his atlas according to uniform formats" Shirley. Ortelius first published his "Theatrum�" arguably the first atlas in the modern sense of the word in 1570 with 70 seventy copper engravings on fifty-three double-folio pages. A businessman native to Antwerp Ortelius compiled the best existing maps re-engraved them on a standardized format and included them with the text in one volume. But by 1570 he had been dealing in maps and charts for more than twenty years. The death of Ortelius' father in 1535 who had been a wealthy merchant seems to have placed his family in financial difficulties. When Ortelius was as young as 19 he is recorded as having joined the Guild of St. Luke as 'afsetter' "or colourist of maps and prints. He seems to have reached a very advanced level of skill in this craft as some customers continued to insist on buying atlases coloured by him personally at a time when he had already developed into a publisher and cartographer/merchant� Ortelius also became a trader in books prints and maps. Much of this trading had to do with the house of Plantin subsequently publisher of the 'Theatrum'�Soon he was attending the book fair in Frankfurt to buy and sell books maps and prints for others as well as for himself. He first met Gerard Mercator there in 1554 which marked the state of a life-long professional relationship and personal friendship� " van den Broecke page 14. Through his work Ortelius became quite the cosmopolitan he travelled extensively to France Germany Switzerland Austria Hungary Italy England and Ireland and as a result had command of several languages. With the publication of the "Theatrum" came tremendous success and wealth. Giving full credit to the original cartographers the "Theatrum" was so successful that it was printed three times in 1570 alone. In 1574 Ortelius retained the position of Royal Cosmographer to Phillip II and was given a fine gold necklace worth 1000 ducats. Between 1570 and 1612 the atlas was published in 42 editions and the 7 languages: Latin German Flemish French Spanish English and Italian. Alden & Landis 598/75.

The idea of publishing a reduced format version of the 'Theatrum' was apparently conceived by Philip Galle who collaborated with the poet Pieter Heyns to produce the first edition published by Plantin under the title Spieghel der Werelt in 1577 and including 72 small maps. In 1579 Plantin published an edition with the text in French prose followed by two new French and Dutch editions to which 11 new maps were added. The present translation into Latin verse the fourth edition overall of this frequently reprinted and often imitated miniature atlas was the only edition printed in this larger square format rather than the usual oblong format thus incorporating the larger maps which had been previously folded in and with the smaller maps set within the letterpress text.

Modern half green morocco folding-case. Provenance: Otto Schaefer his sale Sotheby's November 1995 lot 162. AN EXCEPTIONALLY FINE AND ATTRACTIVE COPY OF THE RARE SPANISH EDITION OF ORTELIUS'S "THEATRUM ORBIS TERRARUM" The second edition in Spanish first published in 1588 and the first edition of the "Theatrum." published under the imprint of Jan Baptist Vrients who assumed responsibility for the atlas three years after Ortelius's death. Vrients added several new maps to Ortelius's oeuvre and continued to publish the atlas until his own death in 1612 after which no further editions appeared. This edition of the "Theatrum." was published without the "Parergon" and the "Nomenclator". The world map used in this edition is printed from Ortelius's third and final "Typus orbis terrarium" plate which greatly improved the delineation of the southwest coastline of South America and depicted the Solomon Islands for the first time. Also included is the landmark map "America Sive Novi Orbis Nova Descrptio" America or New World Newly Described. Ortelius first published his "Theatrum." arguably the first atlas in the modern sense of the word in 1570 A businessman native to Antwerp Ortelius complied the best existing maps re-engraved them on a standardized format and included them with the text in one volume. Dedicated to Philip III King of Spain who in 1602 ordered an 'armada' to sail from Acapulco on the South coast of Mexico to report on the islands of the Pacific Oceans and the "great realm of California". Truusje Goedings renowned expert in Dutch colourists of the 17th-century writes of this copy: "The de-luxe colouring of this copy of the Spanish edition has remained remarkably fresh and is of very high quality. It was done by one contemporary hand in a definitely Flemish style with its overall colouring in rather heavy warm hues though somewhat more refined than usual. The plates and maps are heightened with gold also in the lettering. Moreover all initials in the text are coloured brightly and with care and variation. This is rare and accentuates the quality of the colouring. In general coloured copies of the 'Theatrum' had their texts left plain and if colour was applied to initials or text-decorations this was mostly done thin and hastily with just one or two colours. The green used for large land surfaces did not turn into a brownish yellow as often in atlases of this period but remained fresh in many places. Only a brighter hue apparently a mixture has been discoloured. A special feature is the lead white used to whiten the white of the paper to enhance contrast or as ground for other colours. In some places this has oxidized and turned into grey f.e. at the upper part of the dedication print on verso title and in the cartouche on the Africa map. A de-luxe colouring like this was very costly at the time. Plantijn former publisher of the 'Theatrum' used to ask especially for these copies expert colourist Myncken Liefrincks head of the Liefrincks printing firm. As she was still the best address at the time Vrients will have done the same. Plantijn's archives reveal some of her prices. For instance for a de-luxe colouring of a Spanish Theatrum ed. 1588 priced uncoloured ca. fl. 20 with adornments in gold and silver she got payed fl. 36- almost four times the price of a regular colouring - and almost twice the price of a plain copy. see on this my article in Kunst in Kaart exh. Amsterdam. "The richness of colouring and the carefull overall treatment of this copy suggest it was intended for a wealthy client or for presentation. This Spanish version was Vrients's first edition of the Theatrum after he had bought the plates from Ortelius' heirs which he dedicated in print to the Spanish king. He certainly had prepared a few copies for presentation to the Spanish court. Where the dedicatee himself in general was presented with a de-luxe binding in leather one or two of his high-placed favorites who were often also gifted had to do with a little bit less be it in colour or in binding as here might have been the case. Anyhow the Spanish title and monograms on spine indicate a provenance from an early Spanish owner. Comparison with 2 copies of the same edition held in the Escorial library see Koeman 31:451 p.212 might bring more light to this". Rijksmuseum 1989 p.95-130 esp. p.113-117 with lit.; and C.Hofmann in Couleur de la Terre Paris Bibl. Nationale 1999 p.69 .

ORTELIUS Abraham.
Theatrum Orbis Terrarum and Additamentum.
Antwerp 1574 - Additamentum 1584 . 2 vols folio 48 x 13 cm Theatrum: 70 double-page engraved maps; rebound later Dutch gilt vellum the covers with thin panels at the edges the central panel with gilt-tooled arabesques in the corners and the central figure of Atlas carrying an armillary; the spine and covers remboitaged from different bindings; A6 B4 a-h6; Additamentum: Title and contents leaf 29 double-page engraved map sheets with the large Egypt on two sheets including 2 extra maps from a Dutch edition of the atlas; remboitage later full vellum recased; blue cloth ties. Ortelius's Theatrum Orbis Terrarum or "Theatre of the World" is widely considered to be the first true modern atlas. The Theatrum was the best available summary of 16th-century cartographic knowledge covering much of the exploration of the world in the century following the discovery of America. The atlas was first published in 1570 in Antwerp and it was published consistently until 1612. Recent research has unearthed examples of the atlas with maps dated to 1640.Ortelius was the artist of all of the maps; he drew them by hand and those drawings were interpreted into prints by his engravers Frans Hogenberg Ambrosius Arsenius and Ferdinand Arsenius. The broad appeal of the Theatrum saw demand from many consumers who preferred to read the atlas in their local language. Thus in addition to Latin the book was published with text in Dutch French German Italian Spanish and English. This 1574 edition of the atlas is supplemented with the additional maps published up to 1584 in the Additamentum. Most notably this is the first appearance of the map of China the first modern map of China and the map of Florida the first map to focus on this region. Abraham Ortelius is perhaps the best known and most frequently collected of all sixteenth-century mapmakers. Ortelius started his career as a map engraver. In 1547 he entered the Antwerp guild of St Luke as afsetter van Karten. His early career was as a business man and most of his journeys before 1560 were for commercial purposes. In 1560 while traveling with Gerard Mercator to Trier Lorraine and Poitiers he seems to have been attracted largely by Mercator's influence towards a career as a scientific geographer.On May 20 1570 Ortelius' Theatrum Orbis Terrarum first appeared in an edition of 53 maps. By the time of his death in 1598 a total of 25 editions were published including editions in Latin Italian German French and Dutch. Later editions would also be issued in Spanish and English by Ortelius' successors Vrients and Plantin the former adding a number of maps to the atlas the final edition of which was issued in 1612. Most of the maps in Ortelius Theatrum were drawn from the works of a number of other mapmakers from around the world; a list of 87 authors is given by Ortelius himself In 1573 Ortelius published seventeen supplementary maps under the title of Additamentum Theatri Orbis Terrarum. In 1575 he was appointed geographer to the king of Spain Philip II on the recommendation of Arias Montanus who vouched for his orthodoxy his family as early as 1535 had fallen under suspicion of Protestantism. In 1578 he laid the basis of a critical treatment of ancient geography with his Synonymia geographica issued by the Plantin press at Antwerp and republished as Thesaurus geographicus in 1596. In 1584 he issued his Nomenclator Ptolemaicus a Parergon a series of maps illustrating ancient history sacred and secular. Late in life he also aided Welser in his edition of the Peutinger Table in 1598. Koeman 31:022 Antwerp 1574 - Additamentum 1584 hardcover

This substantial undertaking assembled. the best available maps of the world by the most renowned and up-to-date geographers. each of Ortelius' maps was engraved specifically for his atlas according to uniform formats" Shirley. Effusively dedicated by Ortelius to Philip III of Spain 1578-1621 king of Spain and of Portugal as Philip II whose reign 1598-1621 was characterized by a successful and largely peaceful foreign policy in western Europe and internally by the expulsion of the Moriscos Christians of Moorish ancestry. The son of Philip II of Spain by his fourth consort and Habsburg cousin Anna of Austria. Philip III was pious benevolent and "highly virtuous in private conduct. After he became king Sept. 13 1598 he showed himself to be indolent and indifferent to his responsibilities. His father revealed his disappointment when he remarked that his son was unfit to govern the kingdoms God had given him and would instead be governed by them. In April 1599 the new king married his Habsburg cousin the Austrian archduchess Margaret. "From the beginning Philip placed affairs entirely in the hands of a favourite Francisco G�mez de Sandoval y Rojas marqu�s de Denia later the duke of Lerma-the first in a line of royal favourites who governed 17th-century Spain. Philip's government continued a policy of hostility to the Turks and in Italy it faced the rivalry of the Republic of Venice and the Duchy of Savoy. In the rest of western Europe however a Spanish policy of conciliation ruled. Peace in the West enabled the government to deal with the internal problem of the Moriscos and on April 9 1609 the decision was made for their expulsion which caused serious economic and demographic difficulties in certain areas. The peace was brought to an end by the outbreak 1618 of the Thirty Years' War in which Philip gave his unconditional support to the Holy Roman emperor Ferdinand II and the Catholic German princes. Remote from his subjects Philip spent huge sums on court entertainments and neglected Spain's growing economic problems which were to reach crisis proportions in the following reign. Having resided in Valladolid in the first years of his reign he eventually fixed his court in Madrid. After a visit to Portugal 1619 he suffered the first attack of an illness that two years later brought about his death" Encyclopedia Britannica online.

Ortelius Abraham
Theatrum Orbis Terrarum 1 Map only
Netherlands: Publisher Not Known 1570. a very good map 6 x 7"; Abraham Ortelius 1527-98. One of the first and greatest of the Dutch map makers. His "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum" of 1570 is generally considered the first modern Atlas. For this work large copper plates were engraved and from time to time alterations were made in these plates as various editions were issued even as late as 1693-- long after Ortelius' death. These Maps are much favoured by collectors because of a quaint rather archaic quality of drawing. They are exceedingly decorative and careful examination of any one of them will disclose curious little fugures scenes or other decorations. This map is one of these original engravings with nice old colouring. This map will make a nice gift and is quite scarce. First Edition. Softcover. Very Good/No Dustjacket. 6 x 7".

Notably Louis participated in the conclave of 1667 which elected Pope Clement IX whom he later represented at the christening of the Dauphin of France son of King Louis XIV January 16 1668.

THE FIRST MODERN ATLAS This Latin edition of 1592 was vastly expanded from the first edition of two decades earlier and includes the appendix of historical maps known as the "Parergon" that represents Ortelius's most personal contribution to the volume. 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". To compile the atlas he drew upon his many contacts in the growing network of European cartographers to secure the best existing maps. He then had them re-engraved by the talented Flemish artist Frans Hogenberg 1535-90 such that all conformed to a standard format and graphic style appended scholarly text to their versos and published them as a uniform edition. 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. These earlier volumes fell into two categories. The first comprised map books made to order according to the desires and needs of an individual client "composite atlases" sometimes called "Lafreri atlases" and no two were alike. In contrast to Ortelius's atlas few of these books included explanatory text and they contained a motley assortment of maps by different makers that showed little or no uniformity. The second category consisted of editions of Ptolemy's "Geography" which were more keyed to revising the text of the ancient geographer than to providing a comprehensive up-to-date cartographic world picture. In the "Theatrum" Ortelius also took the step - quite rare in the sixteenth century when plagiarism was rampant - of crediting the original authors of the maps included in a section entitled "Catalogus auctorum". Between the first appearance of the "Theatrum" in 1570 and its final edition in 1612 it was printed in thirty-one editions and seven different languages - a remarkable figure for the time.

Late 17th-century English panelled black goatskin elaborately tooled in gilt and blind both covers with triple border enclosing owner Elizabeth Cairnes's name cornerpieces incorporating acorn tools further ornament with urns and flowerheads expertly rebacked to style. Provenance: front cover gilt-lettered Elizabeth Cairnes d.1731 wife of Sir Alexander Cairnes; and by descent through her granddaughter the wife of the 1st Lord Rossmore to the 7th Lord Rossmore. THE RARE ENGLISH EDITION OF ORTELIUS'S "THEATRUM" based on the Latin edition of Ortelius's atlas published by Vrients in 1603. Before sending the plates from Antwerp to England the versos were erased the English text then being printed at the Eliot's Court Press by Bradwood. The likely translator of the text from Latin into English is William Bedwell 1561-1632. With 161 maps and further five engraved plates the English "Theatrum" was "the tallest volume printed in England up to that date. also the largest collection of intaglio prints in a single book yet published in England" Skelton. Truusje Goedings renowned expert in Dutch colourists of the 17th-century writes of this copy: "Very de-luxe coloured copy contemporary coloured and heightened with gold and silver by one hand. The printer's borders initials and vignettes in the text were also coloured these more sober. Gold has been applied to several maps including the lettering on some. Vrients took prints of the copperplates himself for the whole English edition of ca. 160 maps and plates Parergon and Add. included and sent these to the London publisher Norton. Norton printed his English version of the text on verso and had all maps bound into one volume creating herewith the tallest volume with the largest amount of prints existing at the time in England. Coloured copies will have been very costly let alone de-luxe coloured copies. Therefore Norton will have organized the colouring in England. It was too costly to have it done in advance in Flanders. He will have arranged a master-model a good coloured copy obtained from Vrients in loose sheets. The colouring of this de-luxe copy is clearly based on the Flemish style with full colouring in warm hues variating in transparancy and combinations though it is less monumental and somewhat more precise. This might be due to regional preferences but also to a slightly less routined so a more careful handling which gives this colouring an extra value. Evident English traits are the brighter and lighter use of pigments and especially the use of a different green pigment in a brighter hue. This green is often seen in coloured maps of English provenance. It has been preserved much better than the somewhat heavier green applied in the Dutch Ortelius-editions that often turned into brownish yellow. The warm colour schemes and handling of the colours indicate a colouring around the time of publishing - and not in the time of the actual private binding dating from the end 17th century" Truusje Goedings. "All the elements of the modern atlas were brought to publication in Abraham Ortelius' "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum". This substantial undertaking assembled. the best available maps of the world by the most renowned and up-to-date geographers. each of Ortelius' maps was engraved specifically for his atlas according to uniform formats" Shirley. Ortelius first published his "Theatrum�" arguably the first atlas in the modern sense of the word in 1570 with 70 seventy copper engravings on fifty-three double-folio pages. A businessman native to Antwerp Ortelius compiled the best existing maps re-engraved them on a standardized format and included them with the text in one volume. But by 1570 he had been dealing in maps and charts for more than twenty years. The death of Ortelius' father in 1535 who had been a wealthy merchant seems to have placed his family in financial difficulties. When Ortelius was as young as 19 he is recorded as having joined the Guild of St. Luke as 'afsetter' "or colourist of maps and prints. He seems to have reached a very advanced level of skill in this craft as some customers continued to insist on buying atlases coloured by him personally at a time when he had already developed into a publisher and cartographer/merchant� Ortelius also became a trader in books prints and maps.

Through his work Ortelius became quite the cosmopolitan he travelled extensively to France Germany Switzerland Austria Hungary Italy England and Ireland and as a result had command of several languages. With the publication of the "Theatrum" came tremendous success and wealth. Giving full credit to the original cartographers the "Theatrum" was so successful that it was printed three times in 1570 alone. In 1574 Ortelius retained the position of Royal Cosmographer to Phillip II and was given a fine gold necklace worth 1000 ducats.

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 Abraham
Thraciae Veteris Typus
Antwerp: Plantin-Moretus 1624. Copper engraving 36 x 48 cms modern hand colour Latin text on verso. Ancient Thrace extending from Macedonia to Byzantium following the cartography of Gastaldi supplemented by information from classical sources including Herodotus Strabo and Pliny. 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.
