Shirley 19: "The world map is a robust woodcut taken from Ptolemy without great attention to detail. The border contains twelve dour windheads while the map is supported in three of its corners by the solemn figures of Ham, Shem and Japhet taken from the Old Testament. What gives the map its present-day interest and attraction are the panels representing the outlandish creatures and beings that were thought to inhabit the further-most parts of the earth ...". - Colored wood cut map printed of 2 plates out of the German edition of Schedels Weltchronik, Nuremberg 1493.
