Great Britain by Johannes Jansson from 'Europa Geographiam' by Christoph Heidmann in the 1639 edition of his book printed in Amsterdam.

Copper engraved map on hand laid paper with later hand colouring.

Johannes Jansson (1588 - 1664) was born in Arnhem.  In 1612 he married the daughter of cartographer and publisher Jodocus Hondius (1563-1612)and worked in partnership with Hondius in Amsterdam as a printer and publisher.  He produced a large number of maps and atlases which rivalled the quality of the Blaeu family.  Many of his maps drew heavily on other cartographers and mapmakers. 

Christoph Heidmann (1581 - 1627) was a German philologist and geographer who was Professor of rhetoric at the University of Helmstedt.  His 'Europa Geographiam was published posthumously in 1639  with maps by
Jansson.  This map was published a copy of that book.
