Ortelius' attractive map of Bavaria is after that by Philip Apian. This example is in good condition and is a nice, strong impression. The physical geography of this region, its many rivers and mountains, makes for an interesting presentation. The title appears in a decorative cartouche at the right with the Bavarian arms above. A scale in German miles is given in the lower right corner. A decorative map of this important European region.
