A rare Dutch text edition of this early and detailed chart of the coast of Norway. Decorated by a colourful title cartouche and scale cartouche, one compass rose, several vessels and sea monsters along the coast, and depictions of animals, mountains and small villages inland. Three coast line profiles. Chart from an early Dutch text edition of this landmark contribution to the science of navigation. Waghenaer's own personal experiences as a pilot along European coasts were used to compile the Spiegel der Zeevaerdt, the first edition of which was published in Dutch at Leyden in 1584/85 by the house of Plantin. Although advertised as published in 1584 according to Koeman this edition is more likely printed in 1585. The chart is engraved by the famous artists Baptist and Johannes van Deutecom. The chart showing soundings, sandbanks, landmarks and coastal profiles.

For more than 40 years we have been selling genuine old maps, atlases, prints, posters. Every item on this site is clearly dated and priced and was engraved on copper, unless otherwise stated.
Measurements exclude the margins and are provided in both millimeters and inches, with height given first.
Colour was done by hand. 'Original colours' means that the item was coloured at, or about, the time of it's original publication. When the term 'Coloured' appears, it means that the map was more recently coloured, likely in this century or at the end of last century.
A colour code is used and we use a condition rating system. In addition, we have created a unique HiBCOR grading system which we believe can assist all collectors in forming a collection. Please take the time to read this.
