Jacob Floris van Langren
Jacob Floris van Langren (''ca'' 1525 - 27 July 1610) was a Dutch cartographer and globe-maker who established a family dynasty of three generations in those professions.〔J. Keuning, "The van Langren family", ''Imago Mundi'' 13 1956:101-09; P. van der Krogt, ''Globi neerlandici: the production of globes in the Low Countries'' Utrecht 1993.〕 He was born in Gelderland but moved to the Southern Netherlands and later to Amsterdam, where his sons Arnoldus and Henricus were born. From about 1586 Jacob and his son Arnold produced globes, both terrestrial and celestial, the first ever produced in the northern Low Countries.〔M. Friendly, "The First (Known) Statistical Graph: Michael Florent van Langren and the 'secret' of Longitude" 2010.〕 Over the next fifty years, the van Langrens continued to revise and improve their engravings; Petrus Plancius collaborated on the 1589 edition. In 1592, the States General granted the Van Langren family a monopoly in the production of globes, which led to quarrels with Jodocus Hondius. Jacob died in Alkmaar in 1610, where he is buried in the Grote Kerk.〔P. C. J. van der Krogt, Globi Neerlandici: the production of globes in the Low Countries, HES, 1993, p. 90〕
His grandson Michael van Langren was also a cartographer.
