Transisalania Provincia vulgo Over-Yssel. Auctor. N. ten-Have.

Very detailed, antique map of the central part of the Netherlands by N. Visscher. Shows in the west the IJsselmeer with Kampen, Zwolle, Deventer and Zutphen in the south and Steenwijk, Meppel, Hardenberg to Oldenzaal and Nordhorn in the east. Below left a title cartouche, in the IJsselmeer a compass rose and two ships.

Very good condition.

The Visscher family were art and map dealers in Amsterdam during the 17th century. Funded by C. J. Visscher (1587-1652), the business was continued by his son and grandson both named Nicolas. Nicolas Visscher I was born 1618 in Wenns, Austria. He died 1679 in Linz. After the death of Nicolas II, his widow passed the business to Pieter Schenk.
