A fine map of Asia, with the title set in a panel with strapwork designs and two heads; the seas are decorated with galleys, ships, sea monsters and fishermen, the land with tents and men with spears and bows. The Great Wall of China is highlighted in red. Cornelis de Jode engraved a new map of Asia for the 1593 edittion of his father Gerard de Jodes „Speculum Orbis Terrae“, published two years after his death by his widow and son. This was to be the only edition of this map: after the death of Cornelis De Jode in 1600 the printing plates were bought by Vrients, then the owner of the Ortelius plates, merely to stop their re-issue. Text abe-books: EXTREMELY RARE map of Southeast Asia - based on the monumental work of Giacomo di Gastaldi - from the 'Speculum orbis terrarum', published by Cornelis de Jode in Antwerp, as a re-issue of his father's 1578 atlas. Both were commercially unsuccessful due to competition from Ortelius, thus the rarity. This is the first printed prototype to depict the region in such detail. Title in decorative panel at the top with strapwork and two heads, seas with galleys, ships, sea monsters, fishermen; hunting men and tents on land.
