Description
During the printing process the figured borders have been covered. No text on verso. There exists a continent map of the Americas which has been printed in the same way. Many of his early country maps, like those of the Netherlands, France, Spain etc. had also figured borders: all these were sacrificed in order to make the maps fit into atlases or like this one in Emanuel van Meteren's Meteranus Novus (1633).
