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.

Out of stockBeautifully engraved map of ancient Germany showing in hight details the northern Europe from the Adriatic to the Baltic and Netherlands.
Really interesting the latin nomenclature of the cities, town rivers and mountains.
From the 1624 final edition of Ortelius’s “Parergon in quo Veteris Geographiae aliquot tabulae… – Nomenclator Ptolemaicus” with the text by Balthasar Moretus.
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
