Date Printed: 1588

Cartographer: Abraham Ortelius

Material/Medium: No color, thick paper. Spanish text on verso. From the first modern atlas- the Theatrum Orbis Terrarum by Abraham Ortelius.

Size: 16 x 21 inches

300 copies printed originally. Few loose copies remaining.

Title: HASSIAE DESCRIP:|TIO, IOAN:|NE DRYAN:|DRO AVC:|TORE .1579.| (Left top:) "Cum gratia, &|Priuilegio.decen." [Depiction of Hessen by Iohannes Dryander .1579.] - HOLSATIAE DESCRIP.

(From leading Ortelius scholar Marcel van den Broecke.)

Abraham Ortelius (1527 - 1598) was a Flemish cartographer & geographer, celebrated as the creator of the first modern atlas, the Theatrum Orbis Terrarum (Theatre of the World). Ortelius' work, the Theatrum Orbis Terrarum, was the first uniformly sized, systematic collection of maps; this work can therefore be called the first atlas (although the term was not used until 20 years later by Mercator).
