One of the most decorative old maps, the beautifully drawn world map by Hendrik Hondius the Elder published in 1630 during the golden age of Dutch cartography, reproduced as wallpaper in eight separate sections which combined offer a spectacular large mural of 251 x 416 cm (8’3” x 13’8” approx). Easy to trim to fit smaller surfaces, easy to mount with the provided instructions & wallpaper paste, & easy to remove without damaging the wall, this wallpaper set offers a unique & exciting way to decorate any room whether at home, in offices, or in any private or public places. Hondius’s map is the quintessential map of its period; the four elements, the sun, the moon & the stars surround the map, while the mapmaker’s own portrait is accompanied by those of Ptolemy, Mercator & Caesar. The original image has been enlarged from its original size into this huge wallpaper set using the best available techniques & printed on recyclable materials.
