Detail from Grylls 2.195 showing the heads of two woodcut figures labelled 'Aquilo Vel Boreas' and 'Cecias Apeliotes' respectively. They surround one corner of Ptolemy's world map. 1482 world map, printed using a woodcut block, and coloured by hand.

What better way to celebrate #EarthDay than with a hand-coloured incunable? 🌎

This is Ptolemy's 'Cosmographia', from 1482, which features 32 early examples of printed maps!

Shelfmark: Grylls 2.195
