Jakob van der Schley aka Jakob van Schley (26 July 1715 Amsterdam - 12 February 1779 Amsterdam) was a Dutch draughtsman and engraver. He studied under Bernard Picart (1673-1733) whose style he subsequently copied. His main interests were engraving portraits and producing illustrations for 'La Vie de Marianne' by Pierre Carlet de Chamblain de Marivaux (1688-1763), published in The Hague between 1735 and 1747.<br/><br/> He also engraved the frontispieces for a 15-volume edition of the complete works of Pierre de Brantôme (1540-1614), 'Oeuvres du seigneur de Brantôme', published in The Hague in 1740.
Herman Moll (c. 1654 – September 22, 1732), was a cartographer, engraver, and publisher. Moll produced his earliest maps from studying cartographers such as John Senex and Emanuel Bowen. He probably sold his first maps from a stall in various places in London. From 1688 he had his own shop in Vanley's Court in London's Blackfriars. Between 1691 and 1710 his business was located at the corner of Spring Gardens and Charing Cross, and he finally moved along the River Thames to Beech Street where he remained until his death.
