Description
This is a delightful smaller map of the North Pole region, North Atlantic, Scandinavia, Northern Europe including Britain, Greenland, Northern Canada and Northern Russia. The map is nearly centered on Iceland. An over-sized Novaya Zemlya (Nova Semla) is shown. The mythical islands of Drogeo and Frieslant are shown near Iceland. The sea is strippled engraved and a decorative cartouche is in lower left. This is from the pocket version of Ortelius' Theatrum, "Abrege du Theatre d'Ortelius, Contenat la Description des Principales Parcies & Regions du Monde..." P Galle published first the pocket versions, then also J B Vrients, commonly known as the Epitome from 1577 to 1602. This map was published by Vrients. French text on verso.
