JANSSON, Jan.

Hibernia Regnum Vulgo Ireland.
Amsterdam, 1638, Latin text edition. Fine original colour. 390 x 500mm, with wide margins.

Old ink library pagination stamp in top margin.

A decorative map of Ireland, with a large title cartouche and armorial, both in particularly good hand colour. This example was published only two years after it was introduced to Jansson/Hondius editions of Mercator's atlas. A very fine example.
