.. Antique Plan of Rhodes by Dapper (1688)

Description: Antique map, titled: 'Plattegront der Stadt Rhodus.' - Plan of the city of Rhodes, Greece. This print originates from 'Nauwkeurige Beschrijving der eilanden in de Archipel der Middellantsche Zee' by Olfert Dapper.

Artists and Engravers: Made by 'Olfert Dapper' after an anonymous artist. Olfert Dapper (c. 1635 - 1689) was a Dutch physician and writer. He wrote books about history and geography, although he never travelled outside Holland. Until today, his book Description of Africa (1668) is a key text for Africanists.
