Willem Janszoon Blaeu (1571 – 1638), known as Willem Jansz. Blaeu, was a celebrated Dutch mapmaker and publisher. The Antique World Map was crafted by Blaeu and shows the entire known world, labeled as the Nova Totius Terrarum Orbis Geographica ac Hydrographica. Its title is displayed prominently at the top, bordered by allegorical depictions of the sun, moon, five planets, and four elements. Additionally, seven vignettes of the ancient world's seven wonders grace the bottom. This faithful print is framed on all sides by decorative borders and displays varying levels of cartography in both hemispheres. This map has been carefully preserved, ensuring that its vibrant colors and inks remain rich and sharp. Willem Blaeu's Antique 1635 World Map is the perfect way to add a historical touch to any room and the perfect conversation piece for any enthusiast of world history.
