Description

Fine old color example of Belleforest's rare antique woodcut bird's eye view of Marseille, from his Cosmographie Universelle De Tout le Monde.

The view is likely based on Braun & Hogenberg's view of Marseille, which was first issued in the same year. An additional key has been added to this map which is not on the Braun & Hogenberg.

A fine dark impression.
