Antique Map of Africa by Hondius and Jansson

Vintage illustration antique map of Africa by Hondius and Jansson, 1635. Africae nova Tabula. This map is filled with fictitious rivers and mountains with the origin of the Nile conforming to the Ptolemaic tradition of twin lakes located below the equator. The Kingdom of Monomotapa fills the entire southern tip of Africa which is now shown as more rounded. The oceans have ships, flying fish and sea monsters, while elephants, lions, zebras, ostriches and other exotic animals are on land. The border includes insets with 10 sets of costumed figures, representing the indigenous peoples of Africa and six city views along the top. The cartouche features a clock with Roman numerals and a bell, the face of the clock is a skull surrounded by the rays of the sun

Creator Review
Looked great and was perfect for my Nana's 99th it arrived super quick so much quicker than sending the original from the other side of the world! My Nan loved my artwork too and the picture of us inside helped her remember who I was as she has Alzheimer's. Crisp and clear. Bright and colorful true to the original artwork I created. The photo we placed inside also looked great and clear.
