This map in particular was the first Dutch-made chart to show the Gulf Coast; in fact, at the time of its publication it stood as the most detailed map ever produced of the region. Following Roggeveen's death in 1679, Amsterdam colorist, engraver, and printer Jacob Robijn (1649 - c. 1707) bought the plates of \u003cem\u003eHet Brandende Veen\u003c\/em\u003e, publishing the work the following year.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBorn outside of Rotterdam, Roggeveen (1628 - 1679) moved in 1658 to Middleburg, the seat of both the Dutch East and West India Companies. He worked for both companies, teaching the art of navigation and helping to maintain their collections of hydrographic manuscripts and charts, some of which included Spanish portolans (nautical charts) of the West Indies. In the mid-1660s, assisted by his access to these collections, he became the first Dutch cartographer to publish a set of large scale navigational charts of the North American coastline and West Indies. Later, he would publish similar charts detailing the coast of West Africa. Many of Roggeveen's maps are based upon the earlier work of Hessel Gerritsz (1581 - 1632) and Joan Vingboons (1616 - 1670), both cartographers for the Dutch East and West India Companies; however, Roggeveen was the first to show the whole coastline of both North America and the Caribbean.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Antiquarium","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":34076037382283,"sku":"233093","price":22000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0389\/6416\/6795\/products\/233093Coastofthewestindies1680Antiquemapoldmapoldmapsantiquemapsvintagemapseuropeanmapsamericanmapsdecorativemapsoldcartographymapmakers.jpg?v=1619730192"},{"product_id":"new-england-new-belgium-and-virginia-jansson-1639","title":"Nova Anglia Novum Belgium et Virginia: Jansson 1639","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTitle: \u003c\/strong\u003eNova Anglia Novum Belgium et Virginia\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/strong\u003eJan Jansson\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDate: \u003c\/strong\u003e1639\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMedium: \u003c\/strong\u003eHand-colored copperplate engraving\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition: \u003c\/strong\u003eGood - wear along issued center fold, foxing and uneven toning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInches: \u003c\/strong\u003e21 x 16 1\/4 [Image]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentimeters: \u003c\/strong\u003e53.34 x 41.2 [Image]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct ID: \u003c\/strong\u003e222004\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis influential map is derived from a less-well-circulated 1630 chart by Johanes de Laet.  Enlarged, and expanded to the north and east slightly, it carries de Laet's narrative on the reverse. De Laet's map is one of extreme importance, being the first printed to use the names \u003cem\u003eManbattes\u003c\/em\u003e (Manhattan) and \u003cem\u003eN.

This is not the Cape Fear we know of today but actually Cape Lookout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring the fiercely competitive decade of the 1630's the families of Blaeu and Hondius-Janssonius often produced maps drawn directly from one another. Here, however, Janssonius produced one that was not followed by Blaeu, the latter relying upon the more restricted map of \u003cem\u003eNOVA BELGICA \u003c\/em\u003eto represent the land north of Chesapeake Bay. A sign of the Dutch influence here is that both atlas producers largely declined to include the advanced cartography of Champlain, thereby relegating it altogether. Here Janssonius differs from Hondius' \u003cem\u003eAMERICA SEPTENTRIONALIS \u003c\/em\u003ein his delineation of the Great Lakes area. The extension northwards enables him to encapsulate \u003cem\u003eGrand Lac\u003c\/em\u003e, something de  Laet did not do. Although Karpinski claims this to be the first maps to show a complete Lake Superior, there is no evidence to suggest that this lake was meant, it more likely represents Lake Huron,\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are three known states of the map. In 1647 Janssonius alters the title to match that of Blaeu, to give greater prominence to the Dutch colonies. He also draws on Blaeu for the design of the cartouche, the Indian village scene and much of the wildlife depicted. The nomenclature is unchanged. A third state appeared following the auction of the copperplates in 1694, acquired by Petrus Schenk from the heirs of Jansson van Waesberge.

This was the most sophisticated rendering of the Texas coastline then available. Exclusively concerned with navigation, it includes no details of the interior. Van Keulen derived the map's geography from an earlier, exceedingly rare Hessel Gerritsz chart (published c. 1631). Because the region had not undergone significant cartographic developments for a period, all place names hail from earlier Spanish charts and maps.

One of the cartographers who contributed to this phenomenon was Thomas Jefferys (c. 1719-1771), Royal Geographer to King George III. We know little of his background, save that he married in 1750 and seemed to identify primarily as an engraver, rather than as a geographer. In 1766 he went bankrupt, which gave publisher Robert Sayer the opportunity to purchase a large portion of Jefferys’ materials and plates. Following this setback, Jefferys did continue to publish maps in partnership with the younger William Faden.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIronically, many of Jefferys’ maps which have proved lastingly significant, such as this one, were published by Sayer and his business partner John Bennett; this piece appeared four years after Jefferys’ death in their 1775 \u003cem\u003eWest India Atlas.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMap shows the present-day Texas coast lacking much internal detail save for the region’s various river systems and bays.

D. Bache (1806-1867) served as the 6th Superintendent of the U.S. Coast Survey. Born in Philadelphia, he came from a prominent political family, and was the great-grandson of Benjamin Franklin. Under his leadership, the Coast Survey’s operations grew significantly, expanding from nine to seventeen states as it surveyed the Gulf and West Coasts. Bache ran meticulous studies relating to ocean currents, tides, and the earth’s magnetic field, endeavors which provided in-depth knowledge about U.S. coastal geography. Thanks to Bache, the Coast Survey evolved into an immense resource for the U.S. government and one of the foremost scientific institutions in the country leading up to the Civil War.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"The Antiquarium Antique Maps | Quality Custom Picture Framing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39448757665931,"sku":"318091","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0389\/6416\/6795\/products\/MICoastalSurvey.jpg?v=1629999595"},{"product_id":"houston-ship-channel-alexander-island-to-carpenter-bayou-u-s-coast-and-geodetic-survey-1951","title":"Houston Ship Channel Alexander Island to Carpenter Bayou: U.

D. Bache (1806-1867) served as the 6th Superintendent of the U.S. Coast Survey. Born in Philadelphia, he came from a prominent political family, and was the great-grandson of Benjamin Franklin. Under his leadership, the Coast Survey’s operations grew significantly, expanding from nine to seventeen states as it surveyed the Gulf and West Coasts. Bache ran meticulous studies relating to ocean currents, tides, and the earth’s magnetic field, endeavors which provided in-depth knowledge about U.S. coastal geography.

He also includes the Mediterranean islands of Corsica, Sardinia, and the Balearic Islands, as well as Atlantic islands such as the Azores, the Cape Verde Isles, and the Canary Islands. Longitude from the Ferro Meridian, which is prominently labeled. In the map's center appears a detailed compass rose, and rhumb lines extend from various points across the ocean.

Appointed hydrographer of the French Navy at the age of eighteen, he eventually became Hydrographer to the King in 1741. He published numerous sea atlases and charts which would be reprinted into the nineteenth century, as well as many maps depicting French colonial territories in the New World. His craftsmanship and commitment to accuracy earned him a distinguished reputation as one of the world's leading cartographers, and many other European mapmakers turned to him for source material.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Antiquarium","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39501995147403,"sku":"3110021","price":345.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0389\/6416\/6795\/products\/BellinAtlanticOcean.jpg?v=1634319010"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0389\/6416\/6795\/collections\/imray_north_pacific_003368_1.jpg?v=1618597065","url":"https:\/\/theantiquarium.com\/collections\/sea-charts\/1600s.oembed","provider":"The Antiquarium Antique Maps | Quality Custom Picture Framing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
