World Map, 1669 - 1733 Map of the world in two hemispheres: the western and eastern hemisphere. In the corners of the four seasons and/or the four elements. At the top of astronomy with plowing and sowing farmers in the fall behind it. In the air two astrological signs of autumn: archer and scales. In addition, the birds leave in the air for warmer places. In the foreground, a woman sits on two guns, coat of arms and a drum. She has a book and a palm branch in her hands and may symbolize the (temporary) peace or the military battle that has been suspended with a view to the approaching winter.
