Naukeurige Beschryving der Eilanden, in de Archipel der Middelantsche Zee ...

Description

Very little is known about Dapper beyond the information provided by his publications. He was baptised at the Lutheran church in Amsterdam in January of 1636, so it is likely that he was born sometime in 1635. He studied at the University of Utrecht, and although he signed himself ‘M. D.’, there is no evidence that he ever practised as a doctor. Dapper never seems to have left Holland; he was the supreme armchair traveller, and his works are especially valued for their extensive illustrations.
