Description
A very rare first state of Gerard de Jode's map of the Dutch Duchy of Geldria, after Johannes van Deurecom:' 'Ioannes Duetecu[m] [and] Lucas, à Duetecum fecerunt’
From: Gerard de Iode: 'Speculum Orbis Terrae', Antwerpen, 1578.
The imprint is very nice and being a very early impression, the imprint has a nice and desirable plate tone; which tone disappears after about 100 imprints.
Title and impressum in a roll work cartouche top left: 'Geldria, En tibia, amice lector ... Ducatus Geldriae cum omnibus eius limitibus ... Excudebat Antwerpiae Gerardus de Iode, Noviomagensis.
A second cartouche with roll work bottom left with a message to the reader, being an advertisement for more maps of other regions by the same publisher.
At the bottom right is a mileage scale. Orientation: West orientated to the top.
Gerard de Jode (1508(?)-1591)
A native of Nijmegen. He began his career as a printer and engraver in Antwerp about 1550. He lived near the Bourse on the Catelijne Veste, or on "de Catte". He was in regular contact with Christoffel Plantin, to whom he sold many prints and maps. De Jode's business, likely a major one among Antwerp's many booksellers and printers, was represented at the Frankfurt fair, where he bought maps he later copied or resold. Most of the maps sold by De Jode have prototypes of Italian or German origin. Apart from his numerous separately published maps, Gerard de Jode is best known for his atlas, Speculum Orbis Terrarum, which was published in 1578. He did part of the engraving himself, and his brothers, Jan and Lucas van Doetecum, did the rest. Gerard de Jode and Abraham Ortelius, both map sellers, were competitors and often had strained relations. After the death of Gerard de Jode in 1591, the business was carried on by his widow, Pascale van Gelder and his son, Cornelis (1568-1600). More a publisher than an engraver, the latter reissued the Speculum in 1593, adding new maps and revising others. Despite all its deficiencies, the Speculum must have had a good reputation.

Condition / Coloring
We indicate the condition of each item and use our unnique HiBCoR grading system in which four key items determine a map's value: Historical Importance, Beauty, Condition/Coloring and Rarity.

We use the following color keys in our catalog:
Original colors; mean that the colors have been applied around the time the map was issued.
Colored; If the colors are applied recently or at the end of the 20th century, then "colored", or "attractive colors" will be used.
Original o/l colors; means the map has only the borders colored at the time of publication.
