Goos, an Amsterdam bookseller, bought the plates from Anthonie Jacobsz's "Zeespiegel" in 1650, but for this "Straetsboeck", he engraved, printed and published the charts in his own bookshop "Op 't Water". The text was after Jacobsz's 1656 ed. of "Straetsboek", named after the voyage through the Straits of Gibraltar. Nice copy with some signs of use, just enough to make it stand out as a seaworthy atlas! - Ref. Koeman, Goos 44A. - Prov. "Simon Van Lissum"? (ms. entry).

Est: $7,000 - $8,500
Goos' Gorgeous Chart of the Mid-Atlantic & New England. Colonial New England & Mid-Atlantic United States. Pieter Goos, Pas Caerte van Nieu Nederlandt en de Engelsche Virginies Van Cabo Cod tot Cabo Canrick, from De Zee Atlas ofte Water-Weereld, 1666 (dated). Hand Color. This attractive chart of the Atlantic coast extends from the Outer Banks of North Carolina to Boston Harbor and Cape Cod. It is nearly identical to a chart issued 5 years earlier by Joannes van Loon, which itself resembles a chart by Hendrick Doncker published in 1660. The chart presents good detail of the coastlines in the Chesapeake and Delaware bays, along with improvements to the New Jersey coastline including its outer sandbanks and the correct positioning of Cape Cod. Many important place names are located including James Towne, Manhates ofte Nieu Amsterdam, Staten Eylandt and Patuxet of New Pleymont. Rood Eylant is prominently depicted in Narragansett Bay. Burden notes that while the English controlled the region at the time of publication, the chart continues to use Dutch names (likely a byproduct of Goos copying van Loon's earlier work). The chart is finely embellished with compass roses, sailing ships, and two allegorical cartouches.

GOOS, PIETER - Caribbean Islands Sea Chart 1666
Est: $1,500 - $1,750
Amsterdam: 1666. Engraved sea chart, period hand-colouring in outline. Sheet size: 21 1/2 x 25 inches. Minor age toning. Fine seventeenth century sea chart of the islands of the Caribbean, including Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands and the Lesser Antilles. The seventeenth century was the Golden Age of Dutch mapmaking. As the world's greatest trading nation, marine cartography was a particular specialty, and no one produced more lavish sea charts than Pieter Goos. Famed for its beauty, Koeman notes that Goos' sea-atlas was more intended for the booklover than for the seaman. Finely drawn and engraved, printed on top quality paper, and beautifully coloured, they were intended more for the merchant collector than the practical mariner. Goos' Zee-Atlas was the companion marine atlas of choice for Blaeu's famous terrestrial atlas, the Atlas Maior. Pieter Goos was one of Amsterdams most prominent publishers of nautical charts. The reputation of his firm was matched only by that of the publishing houses of Blaeu and van Keulen (Putnam). This fine chart depicts the islands of the Antilles and the northern coast of South America. It is oriented with west to the top of the map. The map is decorated with a compass rose, as well as a pair of galleons and a decorative cartouche.

GOOS Pieter (c. 1616 - 1675) « West-Indische Paskaert … Gedruckt t’ Amsterdam Bij Pieter Goos Op ‘t Water inde Vers gulde Zee-Spiegel » rare et exceptionnelle carte marine imprimée et aquarellée sur vélin collé sur panneau, s'étendant principalement de l’Amérique du Sud au Groenland et du Cap de Bonne-Espérance à la Hollande. Imprimée par Pieter Goos à Amsterdam. Ecole hollandaise. Epoque : XVIIème. (* et **). Dim. :+/-80x98,5cm. Cette carte marine est un document scientifique de premier ordre qui marque une étape importante dans l’histoire de la cartographie marine au XVIIème siècle. Elle est l’une des premières cartes générales des eaux américaines réellement utile pour la navigation tirée sur vélin car plus durable que le papier pour être utilisée en mer. Cette carte a probablement servi pendant de nombreuses décennies comme carte maîtresse de la Compagnie néerlandaise des Indes occidentales pour l'Amérique du Nord, les Caraïbes et l'Amérique du Sud. Les cartes marines imprimées sur vélin sont extrêmement rares sur le marché. En raison de sa solidité, le vélin a été pendant de nombreuses années le support idéal pour une utilisation en mer et pratiquement tous les exemples encore conservés aujourd’hui ont été utilisés à cette fin. Elles pouvaient être utilisées plusieurs fois tout en y traçant des pistes propres à chaque voyage. Ces traces pouvaient être effacées après une expédition afin de retrouver un exemplaire vierge pour le prochain départ. En revanche, les cartes marines sur papier de cette époque étaient généralement liées à des atlas utilisés par les marchands, les banquiers et autres personnes travaillant à terre. Lorsqu'elles étaient utilisées en mer, elles n'avaient pas la longévité d'une carte en vélin. Aujourd’hui, ces cartes sont particulièrement prisées par les collectionneurs et les institutions, car elles étaient les outils de navigation réellement employés en mer par les marins lors des voyages de découverte, lors des expéditions commerciales ou lors des batailles navales. Un exemplaire similaire sur vélin est conservé à la Bibliothèque Nationale de Pologne à Varsovie. Trois exemplaires similaires sur papier sont conservés au Scheepvaart Museum à Amsterdam, au Musée maritime de Rotterdam; et à la British Admiralty Library.

GOOS, Pieter (1615/1616-1675). Orbis Terrarum Nova et accuratissima tabula. Nieuwe Werelt Kaert. [Amsterdam: 1666 or later]. Very rare double-hemisphere world map, from Pieter Goos' maritime atlas, 'the finest printed at the time' (Shirley). This map's predecessors were the world maps published by Visscher and Blaeu - in fact Goos' atlases were often added to Blaeu's Atlas Maior as a maritime supplement. The spandrels are fully decorated, the upper filled with a flock of birds – including a Goose – flying across sunbeams illuminating the world through parted clouds, the lower with anthropomorphic representations of the four seasons. Only 3 copies can be traced at auction since 1975 (ABPC/RBH). Koeman IV, Goos 1 (1); Shirley World 438 ('expertly engraved hemispheres').

GOOS, Pieter (1616-1675). L’Atlas de la Mer ou Monde aquaticque...
Est: £70,000 - £100,000
GOOS, Pieter (1616-1675). L’Atlas de la Mer ou Monde aquaticque représentant toutes les costes maritimes. Amsterdam: Pieter Goos, 1670. A sumptuous copy, beautifully hand-coloured and heightened with gold by a contemporary artist. Hendrik Doncker was the originator of this form of sea-atlas and most of Goos’s charts were copied from him. Koeman observes (IV, p.193) that the publisher hardly varied the content of the many editions which appeared between 1666 and 1683. Our copy may be one of those sold by the Amsterdam bookbinder Albertus Magnus, following Goos’s death in 1675, as Koeman notes that ‘These copies are famous for their outstanding colour’. In fact, the very effective use of colouring led Koeman to conjecture that Goos’s sea-atlas was ‘more intended for the book-lover than for the seaman’. There are some very striking maps, including an interesting depiction of Hudson's Bay just prior to the formation of the Hudson's Bay Company (Burden I, 386). Also included are 2 maps of the New Netherlands. One is of the eastern seaboard from Boston Harbor to Cape Hatteras (Burden I, 387). The other, 'Paskaerte van de Zuyd en Noordt Revier in Nieu Nederlandt,' of the Dutch and Swedish colonies, 'is the rarest of the Goos charts of North America' (Burden I, 388), and was most probably issued separately, and only added to the atlas as a supplementary chart. Koeman IV, Goos 2C; NMM III(1), 96; Shirley BL M.GOOS-2f. Tall folio (520 x 320mm). Engraved title and 40 plates, all with contemporary hand-colouring and heightened with gold, one folding, the rest double-page, mounted on guards (title short at fore-edge and presumably supplied, also a little soiled and frayed at margins). Contemporary vellum, central lozenge in blind frame with small acorn at angles, uncut (light scratch marks, spine a little worn at foot, corners bumped).

This uncommon sea chart spans the southeastern coast of England from the mouth of the Thames to Norfolk. It is inset with a map continuing the course of the Thames to London. Both the main and inset charts feature decorative title cartouches, rhumb lines, anchorages, and soundings. There are two fleur-de-lis capped compass roses and a sailing ship in the North Sea. Pieter Goos was one of Amsterdam’s most prominent publishers of nautical charts. The reputation of his firm was matched only by that of the publishing houses of Blaeu and van Keulen and his maritime atlas of the world was one of the most complete sea atlases published prior to the appearance of Van Keulen’s Zee-Fakkel in the 1680s. The Zee-Atlas was often published with Blaeu's Atlas Maior, the most lavish and expensive cartographic publication of the period.

West Indische Paskaert. Johannes Loots (c. 1665-1726) & Pieter Goos (1615-1675) Engraved map with original hand color. Amsterdam: Joannes Loot, [ca. 1695]. 33 2/8 x 39 6/8 inches sheet, 42 x 49 inches framed. An exceptionally fine engraved map of the Atlantic Ocean This is the Johannes Loots state of Willem Blaeus second West Indische Paskaert (ca. 1630), a map of landmark importance, being the first sea chart relating to North America to use Gerard Mercators projection. It is probable that the sea chart was originally intended for the sole use of the Dutch West India Company and the map shows the area chartered to the Company in 1621. The latest geographical information included is derived from the voyage of the Admiral LHermite to Tierra del Fuego between 1623 and 1626. The map extends from Ireland to New-Foundland in the north and to the Cape of Good Hope and Rio de la Plata in the south, and from the Gulf of Mexico in the west to Greece in the east. An inset map in the interior of South America shows that part of the continent which could not be included in the main map. Even by the latter part of the seventeenth century, this map remained enormously important for Western navigation to Brazil, because it was only in 1685 that the first charts of the Brazilian coast were published by Robijn.

Goos, Pieter (1615-1675) Engraver, bookseller and publisher, of Amsterdam, first published De Lichtende Columne ofte Zee-Spiegel in 1650. There is only one chart of Ireland and for this he used the plate of Theunis Jacobsz, unchanged, so loose charts cannot be assigned to this book with certainty. In 1666 he brought out his De Zee-Atlas Ofte Water-Weereld with a chart of Ireland which has his name. The source of the first state dated 1663 is unknown but those for later editions of the Zee-Atlas were modified as described below.A Chart of Ireland and the Irish Sea (1663)Paskaarte om Achter Yrlandt om te Zeijlen van Hitland tot aen Heijsat Nieuwlycx Utgegeven t`Amsterdam bij Pieter Goos op het waater in De Verguide-Zee-Spiegel.

For example, in the case of the Zee-Atlas, Goos relied heavily on Hendrick Doncker's Zee-Atlas, published in 1659, for his charts. Goos's background was more as an engraver - following on from his father Abraham. Unlike Doncker and his other contemporaries, Pieter Goos's intention was less to produce a functional sea-atlas but more a visually appealing volume to be consulted in a library environment - hence the emphasis on the title-page on the utility of the atlas to "Heeren en Kooplieden" (gentlemen and merchants) in advance of "Schippers en Stuurlieden" (pilots and seamen). Unlike his rivals, Goos never undertook substantial revision of his Zee-Atlas, either of the text or charts. Indeed, there are only minor differences between editions. The standard form of the index calls for forty charts, which can be assumed to be the expected complement, but the Zee-Atlas was also available with forty-one charts, and individual examples of the various editions can be found with an additional chart. Perhaps the most famous chart in the volume is the "Paskaert van Nova Grenada, en t'Eylandt California", one of the two earliest Dutch printed charts to focus on the "island" of California, a famous and long-lived cartographic misconception.
