Description
Rara carta geografica per la prima volta pubblicata nel "Caert-thresoor" di Barent Langenes edito ad Amstredam da Cornelis Claesz nel 1598. Esemplare dalla successiva ristampa con testo latino del 1599.
Alla fine del XVI secolo il più famoso e commercializzato atlante “tascabile” era l’Epitome di Abraham Ortelius. Nel 1598 gli editori Barent Langenes e Cornelis Claesz diedero alle stampe una raccolta di superiore qualità. Le lastre sono affidate ad abili intagliatori quali Pieter Kaerius e Jodocus Hondius.
Acquaforte, leggera gora d'acqua in basso a destra, per il resto in ottimo stato di conservazione.
