Japan and Korea By Joan Blaeu – Posters and prints on paper or canvas by standard digital or deluxe giclee printing.
Joan Blaeu, also known as Johannes Blaeu, was a distinguished Dutch cartographer born in Alkmaar in 1596. He followed in the footsteps of his father, Willem Blaeu, who founded a renowned cartographic publishing firm in 1599. Together, they produced significant works that left an indelible mark on mapmaking during the Dutch Golden Age. In 1635, Joan and his brother Cornelius published the groundbreaking Atlas Novus (also known as Theatrum orbis terrarum, sive, Atlas novus) in two volumes. Notably, Joan’s world map, Nova et Accuratissima Terrarum Orbis Tabula, incorporated the heliocentric theories of Nicolaus Copernicus, depicting the Earth revolving around the sun-a revolutionary concept at the time. His maps, including Hollandia Nova and the 12-volume Le Grand Atlas, showcased meticulous detail and artistic flair. Blaeu’s legacy extended beyond cartography; he was also a member of the Amsterdam council and published the opulent Atlas Maior, a status symbol of the 17th century. Unfortunately, a fire in 1672 destroyed their studio, but their contributions remain integral to early modern Netherlandish cartography.
