Henricus Hondius II

Henricus Hondius II was a Dutch engraver, cartographer, and publisher. He was born in Amsterdam, the son of the famous cartographer Jodocus Hondius who had started a map-making business in the city. In 1621 opened his own company in his hometown. The first time his name was mentioned in an atlas was in 1623 when he published the fifth edition of the Mercator-Hondius atlas. After 1628 Henricus partnered with the cartographer Jan Janssonius and together they continued the business. He came from a different family from Hendrik Hondius I; there were two families engaged in very similar activities at the same time.
