Very attractive town plan of Lisbon, showing the streets in detail with the principal buildings numbered and listed in a key along lower edge of print. With many ships at sea, two shields in upper corners. This town plan was one of many engravings originally published in Merian’s Theatrum Europaeum that were incorporated into later editions of Gottfried’s chronicles.
Fine condition
