Plovich, Vedastus du
Vedastus du Plovich (fl. 1641-1660) was a Dutch mathematician, engraver and cartographer, most notably employed in producing city plans and views. Initially he had produced many of such for Antonius Sanderus' Flandria Illustrata, which was to be published by Henry Hondius. That mapseller sold the project to Joan Blaeu, who brought it to completion in his 1649 city book of the low countries, Novum Ac Magnum Theatrum Urbium Belgicae Foederatae.
