Rare double map of Livonia and the Grand Duchy of Moscow (Muscovy) by Gerard de Jode, published in the second edition of de Jode’s „Speculum Orbis Terrae” in 1593. The Russian part is based on Anthony Jenkinson's 1562 map, while the Livonian one on Jan Portant's 1573 cartographical work.

Latin text on the back. Dimensions: 335 x 510 (415 x 555) mm. Fine, clear copy.
