Abraham Ortelius Collection

Abraham Ortelius (1527-1598) was a Flemish cartographer and geographer, widely recognized as the creator of the first modern atlas. He was born in Antwerp and studied classical literature, history, and geography. Ortelius compiled maps from various sources into a single volume entitled Theatrum Orbis Terrarum (Theatre of the World), which was published in 1570. This atlas contained 53 maps and became an instant success due to its accuracy and clarity. It also included a description of each map, making it easier for readers to understand their content. Ortelius' work revolutionized cartography by introducing standardization in map production, which allowed for more accurate comparison between different regions. His work also helped spread knowledge about geography throughout Europe during the 16th century Renaissance period.
