Blaeu, circa 1635. Willem Janszoon Blaeu (1571-1638) was a prominent Dutch geographer and publisher. Born the son of a herring merchant, Blaeu chose not fish bu…t mathematics and astronomy for his focus. He studied with the famous Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe, with whom he honed his instrument and globe making skills.

In 1635, he released his atlas, Theatrum Orbis Terrarum, sive, Atlas novus.
