“Terra Sancta - A Petro Laicstain perlustrata, et ab eius ore et schedis a Christiano Schrot in tabulam redacta.” Double-page hand-colored copperplate map.

First appeared in Ortelius’ Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. The map was initially conceived by Christian Sgrooten (or ‘Schrot’) and in turn, was based upon the cartographic research of the Dutch astronomer, Petrus Laicstain during the course of his visit to the Holy Land in 1566. The title cartouche is surrounded by Biblical vignettes.
