Amsterdam, Schenk & Valk, c.1700.

380 x 490mm. Original body colour. Minor split in lower centrefold margin repaired.

An uncommon issue of Jansson's map of Iceland, first issued 1630. After Jansson's death in 1664 the plate came into the possession of his son-in-law, Jan Jansson van Waesbergen, who republished it in collaboration with the Englishman Moses Pitt and Stephen Swart in the 1680s, with new cartouches for the title and scale. In 1694 the plate was acquired by Schenk and Valk who issued it again, as this example. The colour is particularly fine.
