Jan Jansson, also known as Johannes Janssonius (1588-1664), was a renowned Dutch cartographer, publisher, and engraver during the 17th century. He was born in Arnhem, Netherlands, and belonged to a family of prominent mapmakers and publishers.

Jansson worked alongside his brother-in-law, Johannes Blaeu, who was another influential cartographer of the time. Together, they produced numerous atlases, maps, and globes that were highly regarded for their accuracy and decorative elements.

Among his most famous works are the "Atlas Novus" and the "Atlas Maior." These atlases contained a vast collection of maps covering different regions of the world, including Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas. Jansson's maps were known for their high level of detail, beautiful embellishments, and artistic cartography.

Jan Jansson continued to publish maps and atlases even after his brother-in-law Johannes Blaeu's death, and his maps were widely distributed and respected across Europe. His contributions significantly impacted the field of cartography during the 17th century and beyond, leaving a lasting legacy in the world of mapmaking.
