.. Antique Map of Brabant by Seutter (c.1750)

Description: Antique print, titled: 'Brabantiae ducatus cum adjacentibus provinciis.' - Detailed map of Brabant, the Dutch province partly in southern Netherlands, partly in northern Belgium, reaching to Brussels, Antwerp, Nijmegen, Maastricht and Namur. Title cartouche with coat of arms and scale. 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.
