Scarce miniature map of Scotland oriented with north to the right.

The map was published in 'Il theatro del mondo', an Italian pirate edition of the Ortelius 'Epitome' miniature atlas.
First published in 1598, the publication was revived in 1655, forty years after the last edition of the Dutch original.

Its strong impression suggests this example is one of the early pirated versions of the Atlas.
