Description
In 1539, Olaus Magnus created his influential map of the Nordic countries, beautifully detailing depictions of everyday life, as well as charting the surrounding seas, and the fantastic marine animals that supposedly inhabited them. The author provides a thorough tour of the map's cartographic details, as well as a colorful look at its unusual pictorial and imaginative elements.
