Eccezionale e rarissima grande carta murale del Sacro Romano Impero che mostra in elevato dettaglio Germania, Paesi Bassi, Austria, Boemia, Moravia, Polonia e i Paesi del Baltico. Pubblicata da Willem Janszoon Blaeu su sei fogli anticamente riportati su pannelli di carta spessa che, permettendone la piegatura su se stessa, avevano lo scopo di favorirne la consultazione e un facile trasporto. Oggi tutte le mappe murali di questo tipo sono una grande rarità: essendo molto costose e tecnicamente difficili da produrre venivano stampate in quantità molto limitate e inoltre le grandi dimensioni e il modo in cui venivano esposte le rendevano particolarmente vulnerabili ai danni tanto che pochissimi esemplari sono giunti fino ai giorni nostri. Se ne conoscono solo altri tre esemplari. Schilder nel Monumenta Cartographica Neerlandica cita soli altri tre esemplari conosciuti.

Ortelius’s Parergon began as a companion to his Theatrum but eventually it became an independent work. In fact, this collection of maps of the ancient world was so significant that it became the model for all historical atlases published throughout the seventeenth century. The maps and plates in the Parergon have to be evaluated as the most outstanding engravings depicting the wide-spread interest in classical geography in the 16th century (Koeman).- Year: 1624

At top large title and the the coat of arms of Berlin west (a black bear on a white shield) introduced in 1954.- Dimension: 60 x 83 cm
