Description
Nederlands: Deze kaart van Europa werd gepubliceerd door Nicolaes Visscher I (1618-1679), of door zijn zoon Nicolaes Visscher II (1649-1702). Zon Europa-kaart hoorde in elke 17de-eeuwse atlas thuis. Vaak diende zon kaart als een soort bladwijzer, met behulp waarvan de detailkaarten van Europese landen en streken in een groot geografisch verband konden worden geplaatst. Dat betekende niet dat zon kaart ook altijd een betrouwbaar beeld gaf. Grote gebieden in noord- en oost Europa werden bijvoorbeeld nauwelijks bereisd, terwijl anderzijds de vele oorlogen die op het vasteland werden uitgevochten het vaak onmogelijk maakten de landsgrenzen actueel aan te geven.; Rechtsonder een opdracht van Nicolaes Visscher II aan Simon van Hoorn.
English: This map of Europe was published by the Amsterdam publisher Nicolaes Visscher I (1618-1679), or by his son Nicolaes 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.
