A very attractive early map of France projected in a trapezoidal style with extensive rivers and mountain ranges. With Latin text on the verso. By now Lorenz Fries whose maps were first issued in the 1522 edition had died. The blocks found their way into the possession of Melchoir and Gaspar Treschel. This edition was published in Lyon but printed in Vienne. Karrow, R.W. (16 c.) 28/4; Nordenskiold 209; Pastoureau Ptolemee F 1541 no. 4; Shirley BL T.Ptol 7g.
