Digitizing a very large book — the Klencke Atlas

See the images here — at the British Library website.

The Klencke Atlas is one of the world's biggest: it measures 176 x 231 cm [5'9"x 6'3") when open.

It takes its name from Joannes Klencke, who presented it to Charles II on his restoration to the British thrones in 1660. Its size and its 40 or so large wall maps from the Golden Age of Dutch mapmaking were supposed to suggest that it contained all the knowledge in the world.

It was the largest atlas in the world until some Australian publisher made a larger atlas in 2012.
