From the Cologne edition of Magini’s issue of Ptolemy’s ‘Geography’. Magini was from Padua and would later publish an atlas of Italy. The maps in this work are expertly printed by Peter Keschedt and are particularly detailed and attractive. Shirley cited them as being ‘more florid than the Venice plates’. This particular modern map is of Egypt, specifically the lower Nile region. Meurer, P.H. ‘Cologne’ Mag 1; Shirley ‘Atlases in BL’ T.Ptol-13a; Nordenskiold 224.
