Henricus Hondius II

Henricus Hondius II (1597 – 16 August 1651) 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.

Henricus obtained the original plates of the Mercator 1569 world map, and published a 1606 version of it.

After his father died in 1612 Henricus co-ran the business with his brother-in-law.

After 1628 Henricus partnered with the cartographer Jan Janssonius and together they continued the business.
