Old coloured map of the European continent. Printed in Amsterdam by F. de Wit in 1680.

Beautiful original old coloured map of Europe by Frederick de Wit. Richly decorated with many ships, a sea monster and putti holding the title banner. Europa rides on Zeus in the form of a bull. Towns and compass rose are highlighted with gold.
