Portuguese Empire 1580; Historical Portugal Map

Handpainted and researched map of the budding Portuguese Empire circa 1580. I made the map according to the traditional rhumbline or windrose network that the Portuguese cartographers used around this time. It is the most detailed and accurate map, in Portuguese, of the kingdom's domains. See the Treaty of Tordesillas and of Zaragoza that divided the world between Portugal and Spain. Additionally, I included several two sections from Luis de Camões' famous Os Lusíadas.

High quality giclee print available at various sizes. Actual print is clearer than what is shown. 

Unfortunately, I do not typically sell my prints with the frames but if that is something you are interested in, please contact me directly. Additionally, if you are interested in the original rather than a print, please contact me directly.
