Decorative title page from this interesting early compilation of semi-scientific knowledge about the physical features of the world. The engraving shows the world (on a north polar projection) suspended on a chain held by the hand of God, and surrounded by the twelve winds. Flanking the title are the muses of geography and astronomy. Published by Jansson-Waesberg.
