An exhibition of Joan Blaeu’s Atlas Maior and other maps held at the University of Amsterdam Library’s Special Collections — and they appear to have quite the Blaeu collection — along with maps by his contemporaries, is now underway and runs until November 23. (The page is in Dutch; at this rate I’m going to have to learn the language rather than rely on Google Translate, with so much cartographic material produced in that language.)

Previously: Blaeu Atlas of Scotland, 1654; Blaeu’s Atlas Maior (1665); Blaeu Notes.
