The first atlas of Scotland; a hand-colored copy of the first Dutch edition of the Scotland and Ireland volume from Blaeu’s New Atlas, in Blaeu’s original vellum binding with contemporary provenance. The first printed county atlas of Scotland (Koeman), Blaeu's atlas derives from the manuscript surveys carried out by Timothy Pont in Scotland between 1596 and 1600 and from Robert Gordon who was authorized by Charles I to amend and supplement the maps. Continuing the work of engraving the manuscripts begun by his father Willem, Joan Blaeu was granted privileges to publish the maps in 1654 by the States General, the States of Holland and West Friesland, Oliver Cromwell and Emperor Ferdinand III.
