Lovely small map based on Ortelius' map showing the extent of the Turkish Empire, which includes the Balkans, northeastern Africa, Arabia and all the Middle East. Title is enclosed in a ribbon-style cartouche. Engraved by Petrus Kaerius. French text on verso.

This map was re-engraved for Jan Jansson's editions of the Atlas Minor, published in 5 editions between 1628-48. The copperplates for the original Atlas Minor editions published by Hondius were sold to parties in England between 1621-25. Jansson commissioned Pieter van den Keere and Abraham Goos to engrave new plates, which were close copies of the original editions.

A nice impression with light toning and minor damp stains in the bottom blank margin.
