Pierre Mortier (1661-1711) was a prominent Dutch cartographer and publisher. He was known for producing high-quality maps and atlases during the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Among his notable works was the publication of a map titled "Venetia."

Mortier's maps were renowned for their accuracy and attention to detail, and his atlases were considered some of the finest of his time. His maps often featured elaborate engravings and precise geographical information, making them valuable resources for both scholars and the general public.

The map "Venetia" refers to Mortier's depiction of the city of Venice, which would have showcased the intricate layout and features of this renowned Italian city. Mortier's contributions to cartography were significant, and his maps remain important historical and geographical documents that provide insight into the state of knowledge and mapping techniques during the late 17th and early 18th centuries.

Mortier gained recognition for his production of high-quality maps and atlases, often reissuing and republishing maps from other well-known cartographers, such as those of De Wit and Sanson. His atlases were particularly esteemed for their accuracy and were known for their elaborate engravings and detailed cartographic representations.

In addition to cartography, Mortier was involved in publishing other works, including books on history, geography, and the military. His maps were influential in spreading geographical knowledge and were used by scholars, navigators, and explorers of his time. His contributions played a significant role in the development of the Amsterdam map industry during the late 17th and early 18th centuries.
