Jean Rotz
Jean Rotz, also called Johne Rotz, was a 16th-century French artist-cartographer. He was born to a Scottish father and a French mother.
==Career==
Rotz was a member of the school of the Dieppe maps. He may have accompanied Jean Parmentier to Sumatra in 1529, and he definitely went to Brazil in 1539.〔(''Explorers and colonies: America, 1500-1625'' David B. Quinn p.57-58 )〕
His work was greatly influenced by these early French explorations, which induced him to create highly decorative maps.〔(''Explorers and colonies: America, 1500-1625'' David B. Quinn p.57-58 )〕〔(''European travellers in India'' Edward Farley Oaten p.123 ); "Henry VIII's Atlas", National Library of Australia, ''Mapping our World: Terra Incognita to Australia'', Canberra, National Library of Australia, 2013, p.74.〕
Failing to find employment with King Francois I, Rotz went to England in 1542 and entered the service of Henry VIII.〔(''Explorers and colonies: America, 1500-1625'' David B. Quinn p.57-58 )〕
