- Description
- This map of Europe was published by the Amsterdam publisher Nicolaas Visscher I (1618-1679), or by his son Nicolaas Visscher II (1649-1702). A map of Europe belonged in each 17th century atlas. Such a map often served as a kind of index for searching detailed maps of European countries in a greater geographical context. Therefore, such maps were not always depicting a reliable image of an area. Large areas in northern and southern Europe for example, were hardly explored, while on the other hand many wars and battles on the main land made it difficult to establish actual border lines.
