World map. Above the map a bar with the title in Dutch and French. At the top of the map five spheres with, from left to right, depictions of day and night on earth, the earth without water, the phases of the moon and the western and eastern hemispheres. The first three spheres contain references to passages of Genesis, which makes it plausible that the map was originally intended for a bible. The map is provided with a search grid and a graduation along the edges. Marked at the top right: Tom 1.
