E126 Nick Kanas - Slide 5

This is the third edition of my book, which is hard-bound and includes new chapters on pictorial maps and celestial images in art. I included the latter based on the subtitle of the book: “Artistry”. It is my contention that most celestial maps are not only artistic in their style, but they have appeared as content in paintings, sculptures, and other art forms that were admired by people for their beauty and artistry. In this talk, I plan to show examples of this going back thousands of years.

E126 IMCoS Wes Brown

Wesley Brown has been a collector of old maps for forty years. His collection focuses on two areas (1) the earliest world maps from 1472 to 1540 and (2) the exploration and settlement of Colorado from the 16th through 20th centuries. A Denver resident, he co-founded the Rocky Mountain Map Society in 1991. Wes has served as the Co-Chairman of the national map and geography society of the Library of Congress. He is a frequent speaker at map and history conferences and has published many papers on maps.

Wes fell in love with maps at age 16 using U.S. Geological Survey maps for climbing mountains. He has since climbed over 400 named peaks. For 14 years he used topo maps weekly as a Field Active member of Alpine Rescue Team in Colorado.

E126 IMCoS Deirdre Boys


Deirdre Boys works as a paediatrician, specialising in neurodevelopment and the health of looked after children. Her interest in antique maps started towards the end of 2016 when she bought her first antique map. Her main focus is on miniature or small maps of the African continent and the areas around Kenya, Malawi and Zimbabwe produced prior to 1800. She does stray outside those boundaries at times. Why Africa? Her childhood was spent in Africa and she likes the fact that many of the maps were based on legends rather than fact. Most of her maps are completely useless when it comes to finding your way around!

E126 IMCoS Martin Van Brauman

Martin M. van Brauman, as a collector the focus has been on maps of the Holy Land and Jerusalem, which number close to 100 early edition maps by Schedel, Fries, Mūnster, Camocio, Duchetti, Braun, Hogenberg, Bünting, Ortelius, de Jode, Adrichomius, Blaeu, Baudoin, Merian, Boisseau, Fuller, Hollar, Janssonius, Hornius, Speed, Dapper, Moxon, Visscher, Montano, Varea, Chatelain, Covens, Mortier, Moll, Calmet, Seutter and Basire. I have been comparing each early edition map and researching differences and similarities between the maps by the cartographers and engravers and by watermarks, etc. From this study, I have been writing a book entitled SACRED GEOGRAPHY AND SACRED SPACE, 15th TO 19th CENTURY Maps of THE HOLY LAND and JERUSALEM, A WINDOW INTO CHRISTIAN AND JEWISH ESCHATOLOGY., which I plan to publish (up to 70,000 words of text and still examining the maps and collecting rare maps).

Dormition Abbey. According to local tradition, it was on this spot, near the site of the Last Supper, that the Blessed Virgin Mary died, or at least ended her worldly existence. Both in Orthodoxy and Catholicism, as in the language of scripture, death is often called a "sleeping" – or "falling asleep" – and this gave the original monastery its name. The church itself is called Basilica of the Assumption (or Dormition). In the Catholic dogma of the Assumption of Mary, Christ's mother was taken, body and soul, to heaven.

E126 IMCoS David Webb

David Webb joined IMCoS in June 1980 at a meeting held by Yasha Beresina in Birmingham, where it was proposed that a society should be formed for anyone interested in antique maps. He was, for a number of years, the official photographer of the Society. He has collected and researched Antique Road Maps extensively - in particular, anything in the style of Ogilby, such as the Owen & Bowen Atlases. He is the only IMCoS member who has been to every Symposium held abroad (although unfortunately he was ill and had to miss the one held in London!)

E126 Joseph Schiro Hal Muxi 1691

This beautiful finely-executed manuscript map of the village of Hal-Muxi which is found in my collection is linked with a murder. It tells the story of a man who sought sanctuary in the church of the Assumption at Ħal-Muxi (shown in the map) after he had killed a man during a botched-up robbery.

When the civil authorities heard about the case, police were immediately sent to the area waiting for the fugitive to come out of the church to apprehend him. When in the quiet of one afternoon, the fugitive stealthily came out of the church to empty a bucket full of his personal needs, he was shot at and fatally wounded by the police.

What happened next is a story full of intrigue, power, and authority.

E126 Joseph Schiro Hal Muxi 1745

The second map I will be showing at the very end. It is another map which was drawn during the onsite enquiry of another murderer who had sought sanctuary in the same church (if you notice the Medieval Church had been demolished and a Baroque Church was built to replace it).

The unbelievable coincidence lies in the fact that the first case happened on 26 July 1691, and the second case also happened on the 26 July, but 54 years later, in 1745.

E126 IMCoS Stephen Nagler

For a brief biographical introduction, I am a physicist working primarily on quantum materials, but have always loved maps and I worked as a surveyor for a few years in the mid-1970s. I am originally from Western Canada but live and work in the USA in East Tennessee. I started collecting old maps around 1990 during a sabbatical year when I was a visiting Professor at the Clarendon Lab. at the University of Oxford. My collection is roughly threefold with subsets focusing on Canada, Denmark, and the Holy Land. I have many 16th/17th/18th century maps of types that are probably familiar to most IMCoS members. However what I propose to present at the meeting is something quite different. I recently acquired a copy of the first modern world atlas printed in Hebrew (the Jabotinsky - Perlman atlas c. 1925). This atlas is known for its maps of Palestine, but has some very interesting peculiarities in its depictions of other countries, including Canada, that I was unaware of before acquiring it.
