Koppargraverare och kartförläggare, Hugo Allards kartor baserade sig ofta på kartor av J. Blaeu, N. Visscher, J. Jansonnius och F. de Wit. Han arbetade tillsammans med sin son Carel Allard som även kom att efterträda honom.
The Allard family ran an active publishing business in Amsterdam in the latter half of the seventeenth century. Most of their publications consisted of atlases made up of maps and town plans by their more famous predecessors, Blaeu, Jansson, de Wit, Visscher and others, but one of their most attractive and interesting sheet maps was of New England (Hugo Allard, 1656), based on Jansson, which included a view of New Amsterdam by C. J. Visscher.
JOACHIM OTTENS 1663-1719
REINER OTTENS (son) 1698-1750
JOSHUA OTTENS (son) 1704-65
Holländskt kartförlag, etablerat i Amsterdam 1726 av bröderna Reiner och Iosua Ottens vid deras övertag av ett äldre konst- och kartföretag. Firman utgav en större atlas och en 'Atlas Minor' i en rad odaterade utgåvor. De ombesörjde även nyutgåvor av Louis Renards (se denne) navigationsatlas. Detta kan tyda på att det var hans företag som de övertog.
The family business of print and map selling was founded by Joachim Ottens but the active period of map publishing was concentrated in the years between 1720 and 1750 when the brothers, Reiner and Joshua, produced enormous collections of maps, some as large as 15 volumes. These, including copies of practically all maps available at the time, were made up to order and were magnificently coloured. Besides these specially prepared collections they also issued single-volume atlases with varying contents as well as pocket atlases.
