Pieter van den Keere

Pieter van den Keere (1571–c.1646) was a Flemish engraver, publisher, and cartographer. He created detailed miniature maps during the Dutch Golden Age. Keere fled Ghent for religious reasons and worked in London and Amsterdam. His famous atlases include county maps of England and Wales, known as “Miniature Speeds.” Collectors value his precise engravings for their historical and artistic importance.
