This map was first published in the ‘miniature’ Ortelius atlas was in Brescia, 1598. Later editions from 1608 were smaller in format as here with the text on the verso. The map is derived from the folio Abraham Ortelius map published in 1570. According to Ganado this example is from the 1655 edition. Ganado (2009) no. 55; Phillips 4259; Shirley Atlases in the BL T.Mar 1b.
