Fries, Lorenz: Orbis Typus Universalis Iuxta Hydrographorum Traditionem Exactissime Depicta. 1522. L.F.
Strasbourg, 1525.
Woodcut map of the world, which is one of the earliest obtainable maps to include the name America. The majority of Laurent Fries’ maps were derived from Waldseemüller’s 1513 edition of Ptolemy’s Geographia, but this map is Fries’ entirely original work. The title section of the woodcut bears his initials and the date of its first issue, 1522. He used an unusual frame of banners, which includes the names of the winds, each looped with a coil of rope.
Dimensions: 335 x 495 (385 x 495) mm. Restored along the centrefold.
Shirley: 48.
