"Fluviorum in Europa principis Danubii" is a hand colored map of the region about the Danube river created by Johann Baptist Homann (1663-1724) in his 'Atlas Novus Terrarum', published in Nuremberg, Germany in 1728 shortly after his death. It depicts the course of the river Danube from Ingolstadt to the Black Sea, as well as the Adriatic and Aegean Seas. It extends from Bohemia in the north to Crete in the south, including Italy, Greece, Croatia and other portions of the Balkans. There is a striking decorative cartouche and a large inset map of the Upper Danube region and excellent detail of the Greek and Croatian islands, as well as the straits from the Aegean into the Black Sea.
There is a central vertical fold as issued, with mild separation inferiorly, which is reinforced on the verso, as is a small vertical tear in the upper margin. The map is otherwise in very good condition. less
