Item Details
Description
[Ortelius, Abraham] EUROPAE. [C. 1584-1612.] Engraved map by Ortelius based on Jenkinson’s Russia map and Gastaldi’s maps of Africa and Asia, Gerard Mercator’s 1564 map of Britain, a map of Scanandavia by Olaus Magnus (1539), and other mapmakers. For the various editions of his map of Europe, Ortelius used two different copper engraving plates, both titled “Europae.” This is the second plate: “Africae Pars” is in all capitals (italic, semi-cursive). Hand-colored. 13 1/2 x 17 7/8 in. Latin text on verso. C-fold repaired, sight condition otherwise near fine. Matted, under glass. Not examined out of frame.
