Description:
|
|
| Early woodcut map of Southeast Asia, one of just three new maps added by Fries to his editions of Ptolemy's 'Geographia'. This map is principally sourced from the monumental world map published by Martin Waldseemuller in 1507 who in turn sourced his geography from the world map of Henricus Martellus, published c.1490.
