Description
Small map of Hungary, surrounded by text in Dutch. Nicolaes de Clerck (de Klerc) was active as engraver and publisher in Delft from 1599-1621.
Included in the rare book : Wereld Spiegel, waer in vertoontword de Beschryvinge der Rijken Staten, ende vorstendommen des gantsen Aerdbodems… which was a Dutch translation of "Les estats, empires et principautez de monde" by Pierre Davity.
The map is engraved by Jodocus Hondius before 1616 and first published in Petrus Bertius' revised pocket atlas Tabularum Geographicarum Contractarum Libri septem.. edition of 1616.
According to Peter van der Krogt in Atlantes Neerlandici, volume IIIA, page 442, the plates were used to illustrate some other books with maps, such as Paullus Merula's Cosmographia Generalis, printed in Leiden by Isaac Elsevier and in 1621 for the Wereld Spiegel. Cloppenburgh probably borrowed the plates, since in the 1630s they were in Willem Jansz. Blaeu's possession. Blaeu, who probably acquired them along with the plates for Jodocus Hondius Jr.'s Appendix and used the plates again for the Merula edition of 1635/36. Joan Blaeu used these plates to produce an Atlas Minor without text.
RARE.
Nicolaes de Clerck (c. 1570 – before 1626)
De Clerck was born in Lier in the Southern Netherlands and was a publisher of illustrated books and prints more than a mapmaker, but he also produced maps. He is first recorded in Delft in August 1590, when he was registered as a member of the Reformed church, and is documented there between 1593 and 1621. He worked and lived in the Papenstraat (Papensteeg), later in the Hippolytusbuurt. By 1625 he was working in The Hague. After his death 352 copperplates from his estate were sold at auction for 772 guilders and 13 stuivers. The notarial documents from 1624 and 1626 are an important source for reconstructing his stock.FAQ - Guarantee - Shipping
