Very detailed and attractive chart of the island of Rügen in the Baltic Sea from a map by Eihard Lubin. Many place names are located on this informative chart. It is ornamented with a decorative strapwork cartouche topped with a crest and lions, an elaborate compass rose, and a ship and a sea monster in the sea. The map is flanked with 30 named coats-of-arms and is a beautiful example of Blaeu's work. German text on verso, published between 1641-70.
