Sebastien Munster, "Della grandezza & fertilita della Fiandra (Flanders)". From the rare 1568 Italian edition printed in Basel. A charming 16th century woodcut illustration of Flanders, the region (once a country) in modern day Belgium, Netherlands and France.

A most charming panoramic view of the countryside, with small castles and houses atop hills, more buildings, a bridges, tress, etc. in the foreground. Around the image is extensive text describing it. In VG+ to near excellent antiquarian condition.
