Topographic maps Methodology Cartography Cartographers 16th century Germany

Tilemann Stella (1525–1589) was one of the most important cartographers of the 16th century. He created important works, especially in the field of topographic cartography, but also in terms of publishing cartography and thematic cartography. His reception in the cartographic literature is particularly affected by the complicated source situation. Therefore, it is gratifying that new insights into his work can be gained, thanks in particular to the identification of previously unknown sources and partly to the revaluation of already known sources. The present article explains the financial circumstances of Stella’s famous map of Germany from the year 1560. Stella wrote several studies on the methodology of large-scale mapping, but it is not known in the German cartographical literature that he made a sketch to explain his mapping methodology. Very little information was available lately about Stellas’ globe cartography. This also applies to his contribution to the further development of the cartographic sign system.
