Miniature map of Crete with a good amount of detail for its size. The sea is engraved in a moiré pattern and both a large ship and a sea monster can be found north of the island. Though not signed, this map was likely engraved by Petrus Kaerius, who engraved the majority of the maps of the Caert-thresoor (Map Treasury). This is the scarce first state without degrees of latitude in the borders, published by Cornelius Claesz and printed by Langenes. Dutch text on verso.
