"Philippe Vandermaelen was born in Brussels in 1795 the son of a rich soap manufacturer. After his father's death in 1816 he devoted himself to maps and eleven years later produced this quite remarkable atlas. It was totally at his own expense and like so many innovations in the past it came about through the single-minded efforts of a man who could afford failure. It offered the largest picture of the earth's surface available in the nineteenth century thereby giving the lesser known areas such as Australia South Africa and the West coast of America all developing countries a much greater coverage than before. And perhaps most importantly of all it was the first atlas to be produced by lithography" Wardington Catalogue. cf. Koeman III Vdm 1; NMM 3:179; Philips Atlases 749 hardcover
