| Abstract | A major donation by the collector Gerard van Loon to the Special Collections of the University of Amsterdam consists of loose title-pages and decorative engravings, originating from more than five hundred atlases and other geographical works of the sixteenth to eighteenth centuries. It deals specifically with the lavishly-engraved title-page to the atlas by De Ram (Amsterdam, 1685), and demonstrates the importance of the donation from different perspectives. |
