Cosmographia is a 1574 Latin cosmography textbook by Peter Apian, with additions by Gemma Frisius, printed by Christophe Plantin at Antwerp for students and navigators learning astronomy and geography. Its pictures are small woodcut diagrams of the sphere, horizon, meridians, sundials and surveying instruments, drawn with clean lines and crisp labels that a designer could borrow for scientific or map-themed graphics.
