This handsome small map shows the Holy Land between the Mediterranean and Chaldaea in present-day Iraq, extending to the mouth of the Tigris in the Persian Gulf. The map depicts the site of Paradise, between the four rivers near Babylon, with a miniature image of Adam and Eve by the apple tree. At bottom is a large vignette of Adam and Eve below the apple tree in Paradise, surrounded by a strapwork border. This is from the first edition, with Latin text on verso.
