J. Janssonius and Johannes Blaeu published almost identical maps of Istria in numerous editions of atlases during the 17th century. The source of these maps can be found in the depiction of Istria by Pietro Coppa from 1525. Information about the publisher can be found in the bottom right-hand corner of the map: Amstelodami Sumptibus Ioannis Ianssonii.
Bought in 1932 from Isidor Steiner in Zagreb.
