A prolific member of the "Cologne School of Cartography," Matthias Quad completed his training in Holland before arriving in Germany in 1587. Beginning in 1570, Cologne became a haven for Dutch cartographers eager to seek refuge from religious and political persecution at home. The migration continued for more than forty years resulting in a renaissance of Dutch mapmaking headed by Matthias Quad and Frans Hogenberg. During a period of twelve years lasting from 1592 to 1604, Quad wrote 18 historical and geographical works, which were all published in Cologne, mostly by Johann Bussemacher and Wilhelm Lützenkirchen. A mix of Latin and German, this incredible literary activity a great deal of woodcuts and engravings embellished and improved previous publications. Meurer states, "Quad's work is probably more extensive than is generally recognized." He is known to have published under a number of pseudonyms, including Cyprian Eichovius and Konrad Loew, in order to avoid difficulties resulting from his Reformed faith.
