Abraham Goos (1590-ca. 1643) was at the very heart of the Dutch cartographic community; he learned from Jodocus Hondius and partnered with Jan Janssonius. Goos is best known as the first publisher of a Hebrew-language map of the Holy Land (as the initial of the dedication with its tetragrammaton hints), and as the father of Pieter Goos, who was a highly successful mapmaker in his own right. Koeman and Van der Kroegt both single him out as "an excellent craftsman," outstripping his colleagues. The Nieuw Nederlandtsch Caertboeck is his only publication proper, with 2 maps of the Low Countries generally and 21 maps of the 17 individual states: one for each of the Seventeen Provinces (except Drenthe, which is included in map 22: Trans-isulana (Overijssel)), four additional maps of Holland and one additional map of Brabant (map 18, Marchionatus Sacri Imperii (Antwerp)). Each map is a stadium, with arabesque corner-ornaments. Koeman recognizes only one Goos edition, but Van der Kroegt's reissue of Koeman's Atlantes Nederlandici distinguishes two "editions," of which ours is the second (the imprint changes to include Goos's new address "inde Kalverstraet"). It is not clear to what extent this is a true setting-from-fresh of the type, or if it is in fact a change of issue or state; the typesetting of the book seems not to have changed, and the maps are identical. Of the early (late XVIIc?) ownership signature nothing can be written. Carlo De Poortere (1917-2002), the great Belgian bibliophile, amassed one of the finest libraries of continental (and especially Netherlandish) illustrated books. The present volume was not in his major sale at Sotheby's Paris (6 November 2014), but passed through the rooms of Drouot/Van de Wiele (10 October 2020, lot 895) and Reiss & Sohn (10 May 2021, lot 1894).

Abraham Goos (1590 c. 1643) was a Dutch cartographer, publisher, and engraver. He made globes, maps of North America, a comprehensive map of European coastlines, and the first printed Hebrew language map of The Holy Land. His first teacher was Jodocus Hondius (15631612), a renowned map-maker, whose son-in-law was Johannes Janssonius. After Hondius died, his son-in-law Jan Janssonius took over Hondius's business and continued the partnership with Goos. One of Hondius' specialties was the manufacture of globes, and Goos and Janssonius continued this, regularly modifying them as more geographical information became available. In 1616 he published Nieuw Nederlandtsch Caertboeck, an atlas of the Seventeen Provinces in 23 maps, and one of the first atlases of the Netherlands; Johannes Janssonius (1588-1664) was a renowned geographer and publisher of the seventeenth century, when the Dutch dominated map publishing in Europe.

Rare first edition of one of the first atlases of the Low Countries, with 23 very detailed maps. It is the only atlas published by the mapmaker, Abraham Goos, himself. At the time the present atlas was published, the Seven United provinces (The Northern Netherlands) were still together with the 10 provinces of the Spanish or Habsburg Low Countries. The atlas includes two maps of the Low Countries as a whole, one map of each of the seventeen provinces (except Drenthe, which is included in the map of Overijssel), four additional maps of Holland, and one additional map of Brabant. Goos's maps were also used for the Atlas Minor, published by Johannes Janssonius in 1628.The maps are elegantly designed with decorative title cartouches, finely engraved, and set in a decorative oval rectangular frame, while the corners are decorated in a Renaissance style. The work was reprinted by Janssonius in 1625, and Doncker in 1685. Only the first edition was printed by Goos himself. Koeman recognizes only one Goos issue, but Van der Krogt's reissue of Koeman's Atlantes Nederlandici distinguishes two, of which ours is the second. The two issues are nearly identical, but the second can be recognised by the imprint (which includes Goos's new address "inde Kalverstraet"), and the addition of the text "cum privilegio" to the maps, which Goos added after receiving his privilege for this atlas on 24 December 1615, and an honorarium of 120 guilders from the States General on 8 January 1616. Generally, 20 of the 23 maps of the second issue have this addition, but in the present copy it is 17: the text is not present on maps 3-5, 8, and 11-12.The text was written by the poet and translator Reinier Telle (1559-1618), who based it mainly on Ludovico's Guicciardini's Beschrijvinghe van alle de Nederlanden, translated by Telle in 1613. Telle's text was in turn the main source for the text in De Vyerighe Colom; finally, that text was again used for a new edition of Guicciardini's work, published by Jacob van Meurs in 1660.Abraham Goos (ca. 1590-before 1643) was born in Antwerp as the son of Margaretha van den Keere, the sister of the famous mapmaker Hendrik van den Keere. In 1600 Goos moved to Amsterdam where he soon was employed and trained by the Hondius family and by Willem Jansz. Blaeu. He had his own shop named "In 't vergulde Caertboeck", first located 'op den Dam', later, around 1615, in the Kalverstraat. Pieter Goos, Abraham's son, later became famous for his sea atlases and pilot guides.With an erased ownership's entry at the head of the half-title, and 18th-century annotations on pp. 136-138.

FAMOUS MAP OF THE DUCHY OF BRABANT "Brabantia Ducatus." Copper engraving by Abraham Goos, published in Amsterdam by Claes Jansz. Visscher in 1622. 2nd state (of 11). Coloured by a later hand. Size 46 × 56.5 cm. The Duchy of Brabant was at the time an extensive territory, stretching far beyond the borders of present-day Belgium and the Netherlands. Much of it was then sparsely populatedlands where wars were fought and territories were gained or lost. The map was published shortly after the Twelve Years' Truce. Visscher incorporated unfolding news events, and the map appeared, repeatedly updated, in no fewer than eleven different states. This particular example shows the punitive expedition led by Prince Frederik Hendrik from Breda to Rustenburg near Leuven between 15 and 22 May 1622, and the devastation of enemy territory, symbolized by countless plumes of smoke rising from burning villages between Leuven and Brussels. In Brabant, the Eighty Years' War was primarily a conflict between Catholics and Protestants. It was a war of fortressescities were captured and recaptured, and borders shifted constantly. Most of Brabant's inhabitants remained loyal to the Spanish king; they did not regard the army of the Prince of Orange as liberators, but as occupiers. After eighty years of warfare, the Peace of Münster was finally signed in 1648. The duchy was divided in two: southern Brabant remained under Spanish rule, while the northern part became part of the Dutch Republic. Above and below the map image are city views of Leuven, Brussels, Antwerp, 's-Hertogenbosch, Tienen, Bergen op Zoom, Lier, Helmond, Breda, and Mechelen. In the upper corners are portraits of Archduke Albrecht VII of Austria and his wife Isabella of Spain, who jointly ruled the Habsburg Netherlands from 1598 to 1621. To the left and right of the map appear an aristocratic couple, a merchant and his wife, a farmer and his wife, and a man and woman dressed in the costume of Mechelen. In the lower left corner is the coat of arms of the Margraviate of Antwerp; in the lower right, that of Mechelen. Price: Euro 2.150,- (incl. frame).
