Ruscelli's "modern" maps were based on those of Giacomo Gastaldi, but in a larger format, and published in "La Geografia Di Claudio Tolomeo Alessandrino ...". With north to the right this outline map of Brazil shows relief and forests pictorially. A strong impression. Italian text to verso. Negligible repaired worm holes in blank margins.
