Novus Atlas, das ist, Weltbeschreibung : mit schönen newen aussführlichen Land-Taffeln in Kupffer gestochen und an den Tag gegeben
A 1641 German-language atlas of the world, issued by the Blaeu family of Amsterdam and printed for a general readership, with its maps engraved in copper. The four pictures are regional maps, all with hand-coloured borders, cartouches and heraldic shields in their margins, which a designer could use for decorative cartographic framing and period map ornament.
