Beschrijving
(Cornelis Claesz), (no place), (1609). Two heets of paper pasted together. Very good condition and very nicely hand coloured. 293×371 mm. Map by I.P. Saenredam, based on the original by Ortelius. The plate was used many times for several publications, like Guicciardini’s description of The Netherlands and loose prints like this one. In 1612 Bleau took the plate over and eventually broke the top left corner (where a crack is visible in this copy). Nontheless the plate remained to be used until 1648.
