Description

A striking map of the Mediterranean Sea and its surrounding areas. It depicts the travels of the Apostle St. Paul.
The pair of decorative cartouches, presented in a curtain style design, follows the incidences St. Paul faced during his travels. Capsized ships are depicted in the map, one being attacked by a sea monster.
This map is taken directly from the work of Ortelius and engraved by Petrus Kaerius.
