Title
Septem Provinciae seu Belgium Foederatum: quod generaliter Hollandia audit, speciali mappa delineatum, adhibitis in auxilium observationibus astronomicis nec non mensurationibus Snelii, Muschenbrokii…
Description
English: A beautifully detailed 1748 Homann Heirs map seven states of the Belgian Federation – what is today Holland or the Netherlands. Title cartouche in the upper left quadrant features the armorial coasts of the seven states: Geldern, Holland, Zeeland, Utrecht, Friesland, Ober Issel, and Groningen. This map was drawn by Johann Tobias Mayer for inclusion the 1752 Homann Heirs Maior Atlas Scholasticus ex Triginta Sex Generalibus et Specialibus…. Most early Homann atlases were “made to order” or compiled of individual maps at the request of the buyer. However, this rare atlas, composed of 37 maps and charts, was issued as a “suggested collection” of essential Homann Heirs maps.
