The final issue of four of the reduced version of the modern map of the British Isles by Martin Waldseemuller (c.1475-before 1522) first issued in a larger format in 1513. Waldseemuller is noted for being the first to produce a collection of modern maps and famously produced the wall map of the world in 1507 surviving in just one known example. His edition of Ptolemy’s ‘Geographia’ in 1513 was reduced in format by Laurent Fries in 1522, a geographer and physician in Alsace.Further editions appeared in 1525, Lyon in 1535, and finally this in Vienne, 1541. The map draws on earlier portolans for its delineation and as might be expected displays little in the way of internal details. There are several coastal towns identified which are not easily identified. The side margins bear latitude scales. By now Lorenz Fries (c.1490-c.1531) had died. The blocks found their way into the possession of Melchoir and Gaspar Treschel. This edition was published in Lyon under the single editorship of Gaspar Treschel.
