"[Untitled - Holy Land]", Honter, Jon Coronensis

An uncommon miniature woodblock map of the Holy Land divided into the Twelve Tribes with charming pictorial topography and many place names. A ship and sea monster adorn the Mediterranean. The maps in Honter's Rudimenta Cosmographica were printed back-to back, so the verso of this map includes half of the map of Turkey and half of the map of Italy. A number of editions were printed through 1595, with new woodblocks prepared for the 1561 and again the 1595 editions.
