Out of stockAn uncommon map of Europe in the shape of a Queen after the same image published by Munster in 1588. Europa as Queen is the map-like depiction of the European continent as a Queen. Made popular in the 1500s, the map shows Europe standing upright, with the Iberian Peninsula forming her crowned head, and Bohemia her heart.
