Ultraiectina et maxima pars Geldriae summo studio delin. Et aeri incidit Mathaeus Seutter.' This map is a near exact kopy of the second state of ‘Hollandiae Comitatus’ by Casper Specht, as was published by Reinier and Josua Ottens, which appeared between 1725 and 1750. According to the autheur Seiffert, Seutter engraved his own maps. Decorative elements such a a title cartouche were however engraved by artists. This map appeared in two editions. The top left corner shows an inset map of the islands Texel and Vlieland. Just below the inset map a harbour scene is shown. Source unknown, to be determined. Artists and Engravers: Made by 'Matthaeus Seutter' after an anonymous artist. Mattias Seutter (1678-1756) was an engraver, globe-maker and map publisher from Augsburg. He was a pupil of J.B. Homann in Nuremberg. Seutter was awarded the title of Imperial Geographer by Karl VI in 1731, and his son-in-law T.C. Lotter took over the business in 1758. He made several atlases as a folio-atlas in two versions in 1720, the most comprehensive Atlas Geographicus counted 46 cards and was reprinted several times. See less
