DESCRIPTION OF HUNGARY, BY AUTHOR WOLFGANG LAZIUS.

A detailed, hand-colored engraved map titled "Description of Hungary" by Wolfgang Lazius depicts the territories of the Kingdom of Hungary and surrounding regions in the mid-16th century. It features a complex network of rivers including the Danube, Drava, Sava, and Tisza, as well as mountain ranges like the Carpathians. Hundreds of settlements are indicated by miniature architectural icons and named. Regional names and historical provinces are written in large capital letters. In the upper left corner is the coat of arms of Hungary. The map is oriented with North at the top, and the borders are marked with cardinal directions.
