Engr., c. 41 x 56 cm, hand-coloured (light traces of central fold, few spots).

Framed.

Blaeu’s map of Europe is a fine example of the decorative carte-à-figures style with town views (a.o. Amsterdam, Prague, Constantinople, Rome, Paris and London) in the upper border and costumes of noblemen and women from various European nations down the sides. 4th state, with the phantom island of "Frisland" between Iceland and Greenland removed. Verso not visible.
Ref. Van der Krogt II [1000:2]. - Schilder MGN VI:26.4.
