Description
Nederlands: In 1645 bracht Joan Blaeu (1598-1673) met veel succes een atlas van Engeland op de markt. Blaeu baseerde zich daarbij op het werk van zijn Engelse collega John Speed (1552-1629) die in 1611 zijn Theatre of the Empire of Great Britaine had uitgegeven. Aangestoken door het grote succes liet de buurman van Blaeu, de uitgever Jan Janssonius (1588-1664), de hele atlas kopieëren. In 1646 publiceerde hij het resultaat van die letterroof. Deze kaart van Cornwall komt uit de atlas van Janssonius. Het kaartbeeld wordt aangevuld door allegorische figuren en attributen die het economische of culturele karakter van de provincie uitbeelden. Hier zijn dat ruige en bebaarde mijnwerkers die verwijzen naar de mijnindustrie.
English: In 1645, Joan Blaeu (1598-1673) successfully published an atlas of England. Blaeu based this atlas on the Theatre of the Empire of Great Britaine published by his English colleague John Speed (1552-1629) in 1611. Infected by this success, Blaeus neighbour, Jan Janssonius (1588-1664), copied the complete atlas. Janssonius published this pirate issue in 1646. This map of Cornwall has been taken from Janssonius atlas. The map is enriched with allegorical figures and attributes representing the economical and cultural character of the province. In this case these are rough, bearded miners referring to the mining industry.
