Description
A miniature map of the Arabian peninsula, centered on Jerusalem. Title cartouche on the lower left corner. First published in 1598 in his "Caert-Thresoor", the plates were executed by the most famous engravers in Amsterdam, including Petrus Kaerius and Jodocus Hondius I.
"The atlas set a new standard for minor atlases. The small maps is extremely well engraved. The map reflect the level of cartography in Amsterdam at the turn of the century, where up to date information on newly discovered regions was readily available" -- Koeman.
