Deutsch: Der Kartograf und Globenhersteller Gerhard Mercator im Alter von 62 Jahren; Kupferstich von Frans Hogenberg. Translation of the text from the Octavo edition Great thanks are owed to the Pelusian (ie Ptolemaic) charts, and great thanks to you, Mercator, for having at last surpassed that ancient labor, and for having shown new stretches of the earth and sea, and the great, all-containing heavens. By J. Vivian. Gerardus Mercator of Rupelmonde at the age of 62—Frans Hogen-burg made this portrait out of affection for him. 1574. |
