笔记

First published in 1644 by Wenceslas Hollar. The map is notable for the panelled borders placed on three sides of the map, containing twenty-six roundels, twenty-five filled with portraits of the kings and queens of England from the Norman Conquest onwards.

This example is state three of the plate, with Francis Egglesfield’s sole imprint, probably published shortly after he acquired sole ownership of the plate from his partner Peter Stent, who last advertised his role as co-publisher in a catalogue from 1662.

HOLLAR, Wenceslas 1607 - 1677

Wenceslas Hollar was born in Prague, but lived a peripatetic life, mostly spent in London, but with spells in Stuttgart, Strasbourg, Frankfurt am Main, Cologne and Antwerp. In London he was employed as “Serviteur domesticque” to Prince James, perhaps as a drawing master to Prince Charles (later King Charles I) and Prince James, and in 1660 appointed as King’s Iconographer, or Designer of Prospects to the King. He is one of the greatest etchers and engravers, and certainly among the most prolific, leaving a large body of work behind, mostly topographical or decorative but with a substantial element of maps. In total, he is thought to have produced about two thousand five hundred pieces.
