Rare French Map of Spanish Cusco in the 16th Century

One of the earliest bird's-eye view of the City of Cusco in Peru, which was created by Francois De Belleforest for his La Cosmographie Universelle de Tout la Monde, published in Paris in 1575.

The map is based drawn from the view of London which appeared in Braun & Hogenberg's Civitates Orbis Terrarum, first issued in 1572.
