Original hand-coloured copper engraving. Plate Size: 49.7 cm x 37.7 cm. Sheet Size: 57.3 cm x 50.2 cm. Nice, bright original map in very good condition. Traces of browning and minor tearing to outer margins. French text on reverse. [Van der Krogt 2, 3380:2.2; Van der Vekene, 2.12.B; Koeman 3380:22]. Large and interesting map of the historical Duchy of Luxembourg. Richly detailed, with relief shown pictorially. The region is dominated by the Meuse, Moselle and the River Rhine to the north. The value of the highly-contested ground is evident given the fortified towns marked on the map: Namen, Metz and Sedan: control of this region would change hands many times over the centuries as frontiers moved back and forth across maps. The map is crowded with the names of cities such as Trier, Luxemburg, Saarbrucken and Coblentz - evidence of the urban nature of the heavily populated and rich region. The vast forests such as the Ardennes are also marked on the map. Areas making up modern-day Rhineland-Palatinate (Germany), Saarland (Germany), and Lorraine (France) can be seen on the map also. In the lower left corner is the title cartouche with a coat-of-arms. In the lower right corner is the mileage bar scale. Willem Janszoon Blaeu (1571-1638) was a Dutch cartographer, atlas maker and publisher. Along with his son Johannes Blaeu, Willem is considered one of the notable figures of the Netherlandish/Dutch school of cartography in its golden age (the 16th and 17th centuries). Blaeu set up his mapmaking and publishing business in Amsterdam, where he sold instruments and globes, published maps, and edited the works of intellectuals like Descartes and Hugo Grotius. In 1633 he was appointed map-maker of the Dutch East India Company. In 1635, he released his atlas, Theatrum Orbis Terrarum, sive, Atlas novus. Willem died in 1638. He had two sons, Cornelis (1610-1648) and Johannes (1596-1673). Joan trained as a lawyer, but joined his father's business rather than practice. After his father's death, the brothers took over their father's shop and Joan took on his work as hydrographer to the Dutch East India Company. Later in life, Joan would modify and greatly expand his father's Atlas novus, eventually releasing his masterpiece, the Atlas maior, between 1662 and 1672. (Wikipedia).

Map
Sin Encuadernar. Condition: Muy bien. Materia: Mapa antiguo de la primera mitad del siglo XVII. Cartografía. Portugal. Algarve - Willem Blaeu y Joan Blaeu. Publicación: Ámsterdam, apud Jan Janssonius, c. 1635. Dimensiones aprox.: 45 x 55 cm. Técnica: Grabado calcográfico. Reverso: Sin texto. Impreso en papel grueso y fuerte, de gran calidad. Descripción: Mapa que representa en horizontal todo el territorio actual de Portugal, incluido el Algarve, con todos sus pueblos y localidades. Limita, por un lado, con el reino de León, Andalucía y Castilla, y, por el otro, con el Atlántico ('Oceanus Occidentalis'), donde navegan barcos y figuras marinas. Las figuras moras a ambos lados del título, destacan un periodo anterior en la historia de Portugal, cuando el Algarve y Portugal, al sur del Tajo, se hallaban bajo el dominio musulmán. Como contraste pueden verse varios barcos que señalan el poder marítimo de Portugal, marcando la trayectoria de un imperio que incluía gran parte de Sudamérica, las colonias africanas y las posesiones en Asia y las Indias Orientales (Gran Atlas de Johannes Blaeu, Editorial Libsa, pág. 136-137). Notas: Este mapa aparece también con el pie de imprenta de Willlem y Joan Blaeu. La fuente más probable es el cartógrafo portugués Fernao Alvares Seco, quien realizó el primer mapa moderno de Portugal en 1560. Esta versión de Blaeu apareció por vez primera en 1635, hacia el final de un periodo que desde 1580 había incorporado Portugal al Reino de España. Conservación: Muy buen estado. Amplios márgenes. En la familia Blaeu, destacaron Willem Janszon Blaeu (1571 - 1638) y su hijo Joan como los editores cartográficos más conocidos del siglo XVII. En primer lugar, Willem nació en Uitgeest (Países Bajos), cerca de Alkmaar, donde estudió matemáticas y aprendió la teoría y la práctica de las observaciones astronómicas y el arte de la instrumentación y el globo terráqueo. En 1596 llegó a Ámsterdam, donde se estableció como fabricante de mapas, instrumentos y globos, además de publicar su primer trabajo cartográfico y su primer mapa impreso (un mapa de los Países Bajos) en 1604. Se especializó en cartografía marítima y publicó la primera edición de la guía piloto Het Licht der Zeevaert en 1608. Después de treinta años publicando libros, mapas murales, globos terráqueos, cartas y guías para pilotos, publicó su primer atlas denominado Atlas Apéndice en 1630, de modo que comenzó la gran tradición de hacer atlas por parte de los Blaeus. Finalmente, murió en 1638, dejando su próspero negocio a sus hijos, Cornelis y Joan. Desgraciadamente, un incendio en 1672 arruinó al negocio, obligándoles a vender todas las acciones de la Casa Blaeu y a subastar sus productos, que fueron adquiridos en su mayoría por libreros que actuaban en sociedad.
