| $440.00 | Braun-and-Hogenberg | Plan-of-Enkhuizen--Netherlands | Very special and much underappreciated plan of Enkhuizen, Netherlands published by Braun and Hogenberg but probably drawn by famous cartographer Lucas Janszoon Wagenhaer, pre-dating his famous atlas the "Spiegel der Zeevaerdt". This is to our knowledge the first readily available work by Waghenaer who was born and raised in Enkhuizen, Netherlands |

| $850.00 | Braun-and-Hogenberg | Caletum | A decorative antique view / plan of Callais, France by Braun and Hogenberg. The engraving records a brief moment in history 1596 - 1598 during which Callais was taken from the French and occupied by Spain. This was a tumultuous time, less than a decade after the failed "invincible armada" in which Spain attempted to invade and occupy England. Shown in the foreground near the landward drawbridge are two Spanish soldiers- a pike man and an arquebusier. The depiction of Dover, England at the far top of the engraving is a reminder of Callais' strategic position on the English Channel. |
