Cyprus / Der Statt Famagusta

Cyprus / Der Statt Famagusta

click to enlarge

From a late, German text edition of the "Cosmographia Universalis", this example has pages 1494 and 1495 mounted together. The illustrations include Munster's map of Cyprus with an image of a stag and doe beneath. While on page 1495 a fruit filled horn accompanies the description of the island. A little browning to the pages.
