Beschrijving lot
Woodcut, 28,5 x 37,5 cm (light traces of central fold).
Hinged at upper edge. Under passe-partout.
Rare early map of the Low Countries. Münster reworked his 5 earlier maps of the Rhine-region (see lot 460) to 3 maps, this one being the last one, covering Brabant, the southern part of Holland and the province of Utrecht. As this map is much cruder, the influence of Van Deventer is no longer recognizable. First published in the 1545 ed. of Münster's "Geographia universalis [...]". Latin text on verso (numb. 38).
