No Known Copyright No Known Copyright [Hrsg.:] [Abraham Ortelius]. Relief shown pictorially Scale in graph. Form. A decorative boldly engraved map from a Latin text edition of the Theatrum Orbis Terrarum, renowned as the first world atlas. This map appeared in all editions of the atlas, from 1570-1612. A map rich in place names, obviously based on Italian sources as they were frequent travellers to this part of the world. An interesting error is the depiction of the Caspian Sea as linger and narrower than in reality, while the number of big rivers flowing into the Persian Gulf and Caspian is exaggerated.
