Furthermore, of considerable importance, the map of Scandinavia and the Baltic regions, published separately in 1644.The collection opens with the Map of the World "Nova Totius Terrarum Orbis Geographica ac Hydpographica Tabula"; by Jodocus Hondius, in Pierre Mariette's edition of 1642; by J. Hondius there are also the four Continents, Europe, America, Asia and Africa, published by Mariette in 1650. We also highlight the rare maps by Pierre Duval, by Henri Le Roi, by Christophe / Nicolas Tassin, by Melchior Tavernier. Upon request, we have the complete list of maps.
