Hoefnagel's beautiful two-sheet townplan of Antwerp

BRAUN, Georg & HOGENBERG, Frans.

Antverpia.
Cologne, 1598. Two sheets conjoined, total 450 x 785mm.

A few small repairs to binding folds.

This two-sheet bird's-eye view of Antwerp was prepared for Volume V of Braun & Hogenberg's 'Civitates Orbis Terrarum', published 1598.

These large maps are often badly damaged because they were folded several times to fit into the atlas: however this example is surprisingly in good condition.
