About the Item
Antique map titled 'Leovardia.' A plan of Leeuwarden in Friesland, the Netherlands. With two coats of arms, the title in a scroll and an index of 30 buildings in the lower right. From Gregorio Leti's ""Teatro Belgico"", Amsterdam: Willem de Jonge, 1690. These maps were originally used in a Janssonius atlas, and are therefore folded multiple times to fit the smaller size Leti edition. Consequently, the maps are also printed on thinner paper.

His father was a bookseller and publisher (Jan Janszoon the Elder). When he married the daughter of the cartographer Jodocus Hondius he also set up a business as book publisher in Amsterdam. His first map was published in 1616. Around 15 years later he set up a partnership with his brother in law Hondius add issued further editions of the Mercator/Hondius atlas. After his death in 1664, his heirs still have published several maps. Many of his plates have been acquired by Pieter Schenk and Gerard Valk. Salomon Savery (1594-1683) was an engraver from the Northern Netherlands.
