Copper engraving, 364x513 mm, hand-painted. Included in ‘Accurata Orbis antiqui Delineatio’, a historical atlas, edited by Hornius, used by Janssonius as volume VI of his ‘Atlas Novus’ (with text on verso) and then reprinted without text on verso in later editions until 1741. The papers are modelled on the Ortelian Parergon. Janssonius, son-in-law of Jodocus Hondius and brother-in-law of Henricus Hondius, son of Jodocus, collaborated in the publication of atlases after Jodocus' acquisition of Mercator's plates and from 1638 was in fact the one who led the publishing enterprise, while Henricus Hondius slowly abandoned the business (from 1646 his name would no longer appear on any title page); he thus became the great opponent of the Blaeu family in the golden century of Dutch cartography.
