Frederik (Frits) Muller is antiquarian book- and mapdealer since 1993. He specialises in the early voyages of discovery and later travel accounts. His collection consists of original, antique maps, topographical prints and books on geography and voyages as they were made by the Europeans on exploring Africa, Asia, the Americas, the North East and North West passage and the Southland. His involvement in these issues comes through the lines of the genes (Frederik Muller was an important antiquarian bookdealer in the mid XIX century) and by personal experience as a doctor, working in developing countries.
In our latest exposition we show a collection of maps, documents and books about the earliest development in the cartography of Venezuela. Star items are the original manuscript maps made by Agustin Codazzi for the first atlas of Venezuela. For the English version of the text of this exposition, please send us an e-mail.
Once through the exposition there are three shops: a bookshop, a map gallery and a print gallery.
If you are looking for a particular map or book which you don’t find on our website, please contact us. We may have it in our stock.
