ORIGINAL

A rare and detailed map of Persia, divided into colored provinces. Petrus/Pieter Schenk published this in 1722. It has a large title cartouche and a small uncolored vignette. A classical boy carves the title on the bottom left hand side. Petrus Schenk I (1661-1711) was a cartographer, engraver and publisher working primarily in Amsterdam. In 1683 together with his father in lay Gerard Valck (1652-1726) Petrus bought the copper plates from renown cartographer William Blaeu. These were used to publish the atlas "Atlas Contractus” between 1695 and 1705. Tooley's Dictionary of Mapmaker, Early World Press, 2004, p118
