Very detailed and attractive chart of the island of Rugen in the Baltic Sea from a map by Eihard Lubin. Many place names are located on this informative chart. It is ornamented with a decorative strapwork cartouche topped with a crest and lions, an elaborate compass rose, and a ship and a sea monster in the sea. The map is flanked with 30 named coats-of-arms and is a beautiful example of Blaeu's work. French text on verso, published between 1643-50.

A nice impression with original color that has been partially refreshed and a few spots of offsetting. There are faint damp stains and worm tracks confined to the bottom blank margin.
