Universalis Cosmographia M.D.XL.VI

A fine example of Honter's woodcut map of the world. Honter used the famous Tipvs Orbis Universalis of Petrus Apianus (1520) as a model for this small cordiform map. He retains Apianus's famed use of the term America and faithfully conforms to Apianus's geography, except for his delineation of the north coast of Asia west of the Urals, where Honter suddenly branches up to have Asia meet the cordiform's pinnacle, the North Pole.

Tabula Geographica Hemisphaerii Borealis ad emenatiora quae adhuc prodieruntexampla jusqu Acad. Reg. Scient. et Eleg. Litt. Boruss. descripta [with:] Tabula Geographica Hemisphaerii Australis...

This scarce pair of maps titled "Tabula Geographica Hemisphaerii Borealis" and "Tabula Geographica Hemisphaerii Australis," published circa 1753 by Leonhard von Euler, a renowned mathematician based in Berlin, offers intricate depictions of the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. Compiled by Johann Christoph Rhode, these maps are notable for their speculative geographic features, such as the sizable Sea of the West, along with the hypothesis of the existence of a large, hitherto unknown continent to the east of Australia.
