Queen Europe, or Europa Regina in Latin, is a depiction of Europe as a young woman wearing a crown. This map was popularized in the 1500s, and the edition we are selling comes from Sebastian Münster's Cosmographia.
 
All map reproductions are done on hand-processed paper, illuminated with gold paint and finished with beeswax, giving them a real parchment-like look. Actual colours may vary a bit due to different monitors displaying colors differently.
