Keizer (fl.1706-1750) was a Dutch engraver and draughtsman who moved from Amsterdam to Amelo. Together with de Lat (fl. 1734 – 1750), a map publisher and bookseller from Deventer, they published miniature and pocket atlases up until 1747. N. T. Gravius (fl1788-c1800), a publisher from Amsterdam, acquired and re-issued their plates.
