This is a superior copy, with vivid color and strong engraving. Very wide margins.

This is a beautiful full color example of Jansson's map of Nuremberg and it's surrounding countryside. The large large inset plan of the Nuremberg with a key to the major buildings is illustrated on the lower right. A large title cartouche is pictured surmounted by a trumpeting angel and a coat of arms.
