Ortelius / Galle: Antique Map of Crete, 1580

Item Details

Description

Map: Candia olim Creta

Cartographer: Ortelius / Galle

Place & Date: Antwerp / 1580s

Size: 4 3/4" x 3 3/8"

Condition: b&w; overall age toning; some staining along outer margins; a strong, dark impression

A fascinating miniature map of Crete from a French edition of Galle's Epitome theatri Orteliani with many place names and topographical details. In addition to sailing vessels and a sea monster, the map features the labyrinth where the mythological Minotaur was confined.

Abraham Ortelius (1527 - 1598) was a Flemish cartographer & geographer, celebrated as the creator of the first modern atlas, the Theatrum Orbis Terrarum (Theatre of the World). Ortelius' work, the Theatrum Orbis Terrarum, was the first uniformly sized, systematic collection of maps; this work can therefore be called the first atlas (although the term was not used until 20 years later by Mercator).
