In 1730 Matthäus Seutter created the this double hemisphere map of the world, displaying both the eastern and western hemispheres. It includes information about the Earth's features, such as the positions of the tropics, polar regions, and zenith points. Seutter's maps were highly regarded for their decorative elements and attention to detail.
Matthäus Seutter (1678-1757) was a German cartographer and map publisher who was active in the 18th century. He was born in Augsburg, Germany, and initially worked as an engraver and copperplate printer. Seutter later established his own publishing house in Augsburg, where he produced a wide range of maps, atlases, and globes.
Seutter's maps were known for their elaborate and decorative style, often featuring intricate borders, elaborate title cartouches, and embellishments. His works covered various geographic areas, including Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas. Seutter's maps were based on the best available geographical knowledge of the time, but they also incorporated artistic elements to make them visually appealing.
Some of his notable works include the "Atlas Geographicus" (c. 1720), which was a collection of maps covering different regions of the world, and the "Grosser Atlas" (c. 1744), a large and comprehensive atlas containing maps of continents, countries, and regions.
