Description
A double-page map of Northumberland county with a decorative title cartouche and scale bar, eight family coats of arms and three blank shields at left. Superbly engraved and beautifully prersented, this map represents the very pinnacle of Dutch cartography during its 'Golden Age'. Latin text on verso.
Taken from the Latin edition of his Theatrum Orbis Terrarum sive Atlas Novusvolume IV. The fourth volume of his atlas focused on England and Wales. Blaeu established his firm in 1599 as instrument and globe makers. He went on to produce some of the highest quality atlases ever published.
Willem Janszoon Blaeu (1571-1638) was the founder of the Blaeu publishing house. In 1634 he commenced publication of the "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum" or "Novus Atlas" and on his death he was succeeded by his son Johannes (1596-1673). Johannes continuously enlarged and updated the "Theatrum" up to 1658, including the addition of a separate volume devoted to England and Wales. Blaeu maps are renowned for the consummate care and attention apparent in every stage of production - using only the best paper with finely engraved plates and a high standard of printing. The county maps have decorative title cartouches and often depict the coats of arms of those families with important county links.
