Cartobibliographic notes:
Copy of woodcut map by Oronce Finé, Recens, et integra Orbis Descriptio, Paris [1536] . One of the columns bears a dedication to Henry Fitzalan, earl of Arundel. David Woodward has asserted that the map can be confidently identified as being of Venetian origin (despite Cimerlino being identified as being from Verona) from ink and paper analysis
