A beautifully engraved small map covering Lombardy and the Lakes Garda and Como, naming cities of Milan, Bergamo, and Brescia among many others. It is decorated with a fine title and scale cartouche incorporated together. Latin text on verso.

This map was re-engraved for Jan Jansson's editions of the Atlas Minor, published in 5 editions between 1628-48. The copperplates for the original Atlas Minor editions published by Hondius were sold to parties in England between 1621-25. Jansson commissioned Pieter van den Keere and Abraham Goos to engrave new plates, which were close copies of the original editions.
