The lines have the voyage dates. The cartouches on this map are especially attractive. The upper cartouche is a dedication to the king and the lower cartouche supported by mermaids lists the exploration routes. Map has folds to fit book size. Light creasing along left fold.
General condition is Much Better than Good.
Copper etching, anonymous Italian, dated. Modern hand coloring. A facinating aspect of this map is that Europe and Asia are shown on the left side. A little bit of Europe and Africa is on the right edge to give a sense of location. In both upper corners is a bit of Greenland.
