Open House
Join us once again for Third Thursday at the Clark Library as we highlight many of the wonderful Dutch maps from our collection. Dutch and Flemish cartographers dominated commercial map production in Europe during the 16th and 17th centuries; their maps and atlases were exquisite and were often the most widely printed materials of that time. The Clark Library is fortunate to have many fine examples from this time period including a recently acquired rare Hondius atlas from 1629, maps by Gerard Mercator and Abraham Ortelius, sea charts, and to top it off some printed maps of which there are no other known copies.
Refreshments as usual, and the public is welcomed.
