Jan Wagenaar 1709-1773)
Wagenaar was trained for a career in commerce. He learned many languages: Latin, Greek, Hebrew, French, English, and also Middle Dutch. In 1730, he joined the Collegiant movement through baptism. From 1740, he ran a timber business while simultaneously beginning his historical work. In December 1756, Wagenaar was appointed to lead the *Nederduitsche stadscourant* (a Dutch-language city newspaper), and in 1757, he gave up his commercial activities. A year later, the Amsterdam city government commissioned him to write a history of the city, and it granted him access to the archives.

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 are therefor more valuable.
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.
