Seutter, who was to go down in history as a remarkable German cartographer, engraver and founder of the Seutter printing house and publishing house, left us a rich artistic legacy. In his work he devoted himself with great devotion to the creation of maps, city plans and genealogical charts. With our art prints, we strive to preserve this fascinating heritage and make it accessible. Matthäus Seutter, son of a goldsmith, entered the Johann Baptist Homann apprenticeship in Nuremberg after 1697. After returning to his hometown of Augsburg, he initially worked at the publishing house of Jeremias Wolff. Around 1707, he then founded his own company, which combined printing and publishing. Here he produced large numbers of maps, city plans, genealogical charts and other motifs, and also created a pair of globes depicting the heavens and the earth. Seutter, who skillfully copied the successful concept of his teacher Homann, soon rose to become the latter's greatest competitor.
It is noteworthy that few original cards appeared by Seutter. Many of his works are actually copies of other cartographers' originals. However, his work was distinguished by the artistic design, which deviated from the originals with lush baroque cartouches and allegorical scenes. These magnificent depictions are available today as fine art prints, reproduced with the utmost care and attention to every detail. After 1720, Seutter compiled his maps into atlases with various titles, which eventually grew to more than 300 maps (Atlas Novus, Grosser Atlas). These opulent works reflect the range and diversity of his work and can be traced in our carefully produced art prints. So you can embark on an exciting journey into the past by viewing the richly detailed maps once produced by Matthäus Seutter and his collaborators.
After Seutter's death in 1757, his son Albrecht Carl continued the company. However, he was only able to maintain the business for five years before he died. After that, Matthäus Seutter's son-in-law Tobias Conrad Lotter and the related art publisher Johann Michael Probst took over the publishing house. They replaced Seutter's name with their own on most of the maps purchased in 1762. Matthäus Seutter left us an impressive collection of maps and illustrations, which are available today as high-quality art prints. Every stroke, line, and detail of his work is carefully reproduced in these reproductions, so that the fascination his maps once held can still be experienced today. We are honored to honor his artistic legacy in this way and make it accessible to a new generation of art lovers.
