| Notes |
A particularly interesting map of Hampshire and Berkshire by Jansson due to the 90 degree rotation of the county, with the south coast being presented on the left side of the impression. This impression is a later re-issue by the Amsterdam map publishers, Schenk and Valk. Gerald Valk (1652 -1726) was a Dutch publisher, globe maker, art seller and engraver. He trained under Abraham Bloteling, later becoming his assistant. The pair moved to London in 1672 where Valk worked with David Loggan and Christopher Browne. Gerard married Maria, Bloteling's daughter, and in 1675 their son, Leonard, was born. Petrus Schenk (1660-1715) was born in Germany but moved to Amsterdam where he studied engraving with Gerard Valck. He had two shops where he sold maps and prints, one in Amsterdam and the other in Leipzig. Condition: Laid to board. |
