Reference: Kinds, Kroniek van de opstand, vol.2, page 46.
Frans Hogenberg
Frans Hogenberg was born in Mechelen around 1535 into an artistic family and became one of the most prolific engravers of the second half of the 16th century. He is remembered less as an original cartographer than as the hand behind some of the period's most important printed images: the maps of Abraham Ortelius's Theatrum Orbis Terrarum, the town views of the Civitates Orbis Terrarum, and a long series of engraved news prints recording the religious and political upheavals of his day. His brothers Johannes and Remigius were also engravers, and Remigius later worked on English county maps.Hogenberg worked in Antwerp; here he engraved plates for Ortelius, including maps for the first edition of the Theatrum (1570)
Like many Netherlandish artists and printers, Hogenberg was affected by the religious conflicts and the Dutch Revolt. He left Antwerp and settled in Cologne, where he worked as an engraver and publisher for the rest of his life. His best-known project is the Civitates Orbis Terrarum ("Cities of the World"), published from 1572 and completed in six volumes by 1617.
From the late 1560s, Hogenberg also produced a large series of engraved news sheets (Geschichtz Blätter) covering events such as the Dutch Revolt, the wars of religion in France and the German Empire.

Condition and Coloring
We indicate the condition of each item and use our unique HiBCoR grading system in which four key items determine a map's value:
Historical Importance, Beauty, Condition/Coloring and Rarity.
We offer many maps in their original black and white condition. We do not systematically color-up maps to make them more sellable to the general public or buyer.
Copper engraved or wood block maps are always hand colored. Maps were initially colored for aesthetic reasons and to improve readability.
Nowadays it is becoming a challenge to find maps in their original colors, and these are therefore more valuable.
We use the following color keys in our catalog:
- Original colors: the colors were applied around the time the map was issued.
- Original o/l colors: only the borders were colored at the time of publication.
- Colored: the colors were applied recently or at the end of the 20th century ("attractive colors" may also be used).
