Luxembourg by Jean Leclerc. c. 1620-26

Van der Vekene: "Cette carte ne ressemble à aucune des cartes du duché de Luxembourg que nous avons vues jusqu'ici, par exemple elle nous fait connaitre un plus grand nombre de localités, surtout le long de la Moselle (entre Metz et Trèves), que la carte de Jacques de Surhon publiée par Ortelius."


Jean Le Clerc  (1560-c. 1622)

Geographer, publisher, and engraver, fourth in a dynasty of printers and booksellers. Trades from 'Rue S. Jean de Latran à la Sallemandre Royalle'. He worked for a while for Maurica Bouguereau, the plates for whose Le Théâtre François passed to Leclerc sometime before 1619. These formed the core of his own Théâtre.
