Map maker: Pieter van der Aa (Leiden, 1659 - Leiden, August 1733) was a Dutch publisher best known for preparing maps and atlases, though he also printed pirated editions of foreign bestsellers and illustrated volumes. He also printed many maps that were often out of print, which he reissued.[1] Some of his most popular maps were of the African continent, detailing locations such as Morocco and Madagascar. Many of his later works were printed for the general public in French and Dutch.
Jan Goeree (Middelburg, October 20, 1670 - Amsterdam, January 4, 1731) was a Dutch engraver. Jan Goeree was the son of the Middelburg bookseller Willem Goeree. At a young age he moved with his father to Amsterdam.
