Engellandt / mit dem Anstossenden Reich Schottlandt /so vorzeiten Albion und Britannia haben Geheissen

An attractive example of Münster’s woodcut map of the British Isles, first issued in the important 1588 edition of his Cosmographia, published by Sebastian Petri in Basel. The map offers a distinctly early modern portrayal of England, Scotland, and Ireland, oriented with west at the top, a convention that reflects both antiquated cartographic tradition and aesthetic choice. It is based on the 1570 map by Abraham Ortelius, though simplified and rendered in Münster’s enduring woodcut style.
