Backgrounds
Frederik de Wit (1630-1706)
Frederik de Wit was a Dutch engraver, printer and publisher from Gouda. He settled in Amsterdam around 1648 in “De Witte Pascaert”. The first maps engraved and dated by De Wit were nautical charts from 1654. The world map Nova Totius Terrarum Orbis Tabula was published around 1660, a composite wall map of approximately 140 x 190 cm. The dating of De Wit’s maps, atlases and city books is difficult. The year was not mentioned on most cards and the editions covered many years. The atlases began to appear around 1670. The atlas of the Netherlands was called Nieuw Kaertboeck of the XVII Dutch Provinces and counted more than 20 maps. The town books appeared on the market around 1695. They were also printed with copper plates by Blaeu and Janssonius. After his death, De Wit’s copperplates were sold to Pieter Mortier, Petrus Schenck and the Ottens brothers.
