Koeman IV, map 2152, ed. 41:1 (1617/18 B&H 6). - A panoramic view of Krakow over the Vistula river. - This view comes from the sixth and last volume of Civitates Orbis Terrarum ("Theatri Praecipuarum Totius Mundi Urbivm Liber Sextus"), published in a much smaller edition than previous volumes, and it is therefore rarer than most of Braun & Hogenberg city views. - Margins expertly (and imperceptibly) completed and retouched - on the right ca. 5 mm affecting the marginal lines of the picture and on the left ca. 15 mm affecting the marginal lines and the picture.
