Andreas Cellarius (c. 1595 – 1665)

The Dutch-German mathematician and cosmographer Andreas Cellarius is well known to map historians and historians of astronomy as the author of the Harmonia Macrocosmica (first published in 1660), a folio-sized work that is commonly regarded to be one of the most spectacular cosmographical atlases that was published in the second half of the seventeenth century.

"In the late 1960s reprints of apparently all the Cellarius plates were made by the firm Edizioni Ponte Vecchio in Florence (founded in 1938). Several map collections, including the Library of the Free University of Amsterdam and the National Library of Australia (Canberra), possess reprinted Cellarius plates of an undeterminable date which are marked “Ediz. P.V.” (measuring 31 × 36 cm) or “Ediz. P.V. Fiorenze” (measuring 20 × 24 cm) and a number corresponding with the original plate number in the lower right corner.
