Antique map of World by De Wit F.
Nova Orbis Tabula, in Lucem Edita, A. F. De Wit - De Wit F., c. 1670.
"De Wit's map is one of the most attractive of its time. The brilliant scenes in the corners combine images of the four seasons, the elements, and the signs of the zoadiac in a well balanced and naturalistic way. The map appeared in atlases published by De Wit and also in composite atlases by Visscher, Jansson's heirs, and others. . . ." (Shirley)
