[Greece]. MUNSTER, Sebastien. BELLEFOREST, François de. From *Cosmography*: A Description of Greece, Which Was Once One of the Principal and Most Renowned Nations of Europe [...] (Paris, 1575). A woodcut map (12.5 x 15.5 cm; 30 x 18.5 cm on the sheet). Map of Greece published in a French edition of the *Cosmographia Universalis* by Sebastian Münster (1489–1552), originally published in German in 1544 and in Latin in 1550, then translated and revised by the polymath and historiographer François de Belleforest (1530–1583).

The map appears on the back of the last page of the history of Hungary, which features an illustration of a man in traditional regional dress.
