Carta Marina (1539)
A masterpiece of 16th-century Venetian cartography, the Carta Marina is one of the first accurate representations of the Baltic Sea and its surrounding lands, from the Scandinavian Peninsula to Iceland. Above all, it illustrates a territory as much as an imaginary world, and proven geography rubs shoulders with fantastical creatures, legendary lands, and epic scenes.
