Antique Ptolemaic World Map, Johannes of Arnsheim Poster

Vintage illustration antique world map by artist Johannes Schnitzer von Arnsheim. This antique world map is part of famed cartographer Nicolaus Germanus’ wonderful rendition of Ptolemy’s ‘Cosmographia’ of 1482. The artist responsible for the woodcut map identifies himself at the top of the world map as Johannes of Arnsheim, making it the earliest datable printed map to have a signature.

The picture quality is great but you will notice pixelation and general haziness as the printed size increases. Despite some minor imperfections (probably due to a small digital image) I am very pleased. Was concerned about the colors being off or a highly distorted image from stretching, but the colors were spot on and the image quality was nearly perfect.

I like the design features on the website. They enable the fitting of a good quality Print to an existing frame. This Print was of excellent quality. I would buy again. One small gripe is that the image was not centred horizontally (about 3mm out) so needed trimming. No great hardship and may have been my fault in the setting-up. Next time, I would choose to set the text below the picture to a smaller font. Overall - Thank You! Looks good in its frame - Just as expected. I had a very expensive Gallery print of this before. It got damaged - hence the replacement. It compares very well.
