With the Seine flowing at center around the Île de la Cité, this view looks on Paris from the northwest, with the top of the map oriented to the southeast. The city is presented on from equidistant bird s-eye perspective wherein all structures are rendered in view form but from a uniform height and angle relative to all individual points. Fertile fields surround the city, and the rivers bustles with boats, suggesting richness and prosperity. In the bottom left corner, a man greets two women, all wearing clothing corresponding to the Spanish influenced fashion norms of 1560 - 1570. The Bastille, an infamous prison prior to the French Revolution, appears here at top center, surrounded by a moat.

The American Northeast is dominated by Nova Francia and the St. Lawrence, showing evidence from Cartier s voyages. The Caribbean and eastern South America are shown with remarkable accuracy. Beyond the Strait of Magellan Tierra del Fuego appears not as an island but as part of a massive southern continent, the apocryphal Terre Australis, extending all the way to New Guinea. The Pacific Ocean itself appears optimistically far narrowe ....
