The map has been backed in Japanese tissue with professional repairs two diagonal tears that extend 4" through title cartouche and 5" through quote at bottom, as well as several other shorter tears. This is paramount map for any world collector from one of the most prominent map makers in cartographic history.Ĭondition: This map is in B condition displaying a fine impression with attractive color and light soiling. The map is decorated throughout with a sailing ship and sea monsters and cornered by quotes from Cicero and Seneca. The Pacific features an incredibly oversized and misplaced Solomon Islands (first map to include them) and New Guinea. The Eastern Hemisphere features a northern passage to the Pacific along with a crudely projected island of Japan. South America stretches to the Strait of Magellan and Terra del Fuego is included within the large Antarctic land mass, Terra Australia Nondum Cognita. A northwest passage is clearly presented above and Florida and Hispania Nova are clearly labeled in the south. The terrestrial world is sandwiched between two large polar land masses, "Terra Septentrionalis Incognita," and "Terra Australis Nondum Cognita." In North America, two rivers reaching the Pacific and Atlantic nearly bisect the continent as they both stretch to its deepest interiors.

The map was published out of Amsterdam circa 1587. This is an authentic, antique map of the world by Abraham Ortelius.

If you’re looking for an artwork that is not in our catalog, feel free to ask if we can provide it. In such cases, we will provide a mockup to ensure that the final product meets with your approval. Borderless prints may require the artwork to be cropped to fit a new aspect ratio. We are happy to customize our prints to fit your frame. Should you like any advice, feel free to reach out. There are many styles from which to choose.įraming is a fun, creative process that enhances the artwork and livens your space for years to come. They look sharp in beveled mats, may be float mounted, or inserted directly into standard frames the borders providing a mat-like accent around the image. Our prints have inset borders that make up any differences in proportion between the artwork and a standard frame, so that you can experience the art as the artist intended. We believe that the purpose of art is not to fill a frame it is the purpose of a frame to showcase the art. These modifications - sometimes trivial, sometimes ludicrous - are not always shown in the product photos. Most shops arbitrarily crop the artwork to match, leading to claustrophobic prints with missing or partial elements. The original works are usually too long, or too short, to neatly fill a store-bought frame. Ortelius, in addition to his achievements as a publisher and cartographer, is also remembered as the first person to have imagined that the continents were once joined together. Following its initial release it was continuously revised and expanded, remaining Europe's most authoritative cartographic reference into the early 17th century. In its first edition, "Theatrum" drew upon the work some thirty-three cartographers, incorporating several maps which no longer exist in their original form. Smooth Surface - Matte Finish - Inset BordersĪbraham Ortelius's "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum" ("Theatre of the World") is conventionally recognized as the first modern atlas, consisting of a systematic overview of the known world compiled into a single bound volume for which copper plates were specifically engraved. Typus orbis terrarum, is a plate taken from Theatrum Orbis Terrarum (Theatre of the World), the great work of Abraham Ortelius. "Typus Orbis Terrarum (Map of the World)," by Abraham Ortelius (1570)
