Description
An attractively colored first state of Sebastian Münster’s first world map.
The world map is surrounded by clouds and eleven wind gods (with their names shown in banners).
The continents have peculiar shapes and are all connected by a great southern continent 'Terra incognito secundum Ptolemaeum', which land locks the Indian Ocean. In good condition with margins as issued, on verso centerfold strengthened.
