Cartographers

Johannes Ratelband (1715 - 1793) was a European map publisher based in Amsterdam. Ratelband is a rather obscure fellow, but is known to have published a series of European maps and views in association with the La Feuille family.   Further Details...

Jan van Jagen (1709 - 1800) and Carl van Jagen were active engravers based in Amsterdam. The Jagens were active throughout the 18th century and are known to have engraved maps for such prominent Dutch firms as Ottens, De La Feuille and Ratelband. Despite a fairly large corpus of work, little else is known of these elusive figures.   Further Details...
