Title: Accuratissima Europae Tabula Multis locis correcta et Nuperrime edita Map Maker: Carel Allard
Description: Fine example of Carel Allard's scarce map of Europe, embellished with an elegant cartouche. Carel Allard is best known as a map engraver and publisher, but was also an active print maker in Amsterdam. His technical skill and bold style is wonderfully exemplified in this striking image. The Allard family ran an active publishing business in Amsterdam during the latter half of the seventeenth century. Most of their publications consisted of large atlases of maps and town plans by Blaeu, Jansson, and Visscher. They also occasionally issued separately published prints.
