Reproduction Janssonius 'Nova Totius Terrarum Orbis Geographica' World Map

This item is a framed reproduction of Johannes Janssonius' famous 1632 world map, titled 'Nova Totius Terrarum Orbis Geographica ac Hydrographica Tabula'. The map is printed on a textured material that appears to be a foil or metallic-finished decoupage, giving it a reflective, golden-sepia tone characteristic of late 20th-century decorative pieces. The central cartography displays the world in a Mercator projection, surrounded by elaborate decorative vignettes. The top border features celestial figures representing the sun, moon, and five known planets in chariots, while the bottom border depicts the seven wonders of the ancient world. Side panels illustrate the four elements (Fire, Air, Water, Earth) and the four seasons. A prominent coat of arms is situated in the upper left quadrant. The piece is housed in a contemporary fluted wooden frame with a medium oak finish. The condition appears fair to good; there is visible rippling or 'bubbly' texture across the surface suggesting moisture exposure or adhesive failure under the glass. A printed caption at the very bottom center indicates this is a reproduction of an original etching. The style mimics 17th-century Dutch cartography but the materials suggest a manufacturing date between 1970 and 1990 for home decor markets.
