Descripción

Decorative antique eighteenth century atlas map, printed on thick paper, with original colouring and wide margins; Friedrich Zollmann; Homann heirs (1732-1735). 53.0 x 61.5cm, 20.75 x 24.25 inches; this is a folding map. Condition: Good. Slightly creased in the bottom margin, otherwise very good. Please contact us if you would like to arrange to view this map. There is nothing printed on the reverse side, which is plain. Decorative title cartouche surrounded by images of pagan and Slavic gods, including Flins, Swantewith, Radegast and Zernibog (Chernobog) - whose effigy is being pulled down. Another effigy is being destroyed in the vignette adjacent to the title, presumably symbolising the rejection of pagan beliefs and the advent of Christianity during the dark ages.
