Authorship[edit]

Copied from the help desk:

The information on this picture file (map) is not correct. The true author, as proved by his signature in the bottom part of the file, is Frans Hogenberg who did a later copy of this map, as correctly stated in the text of the article. in other words, the shown illustration, as well as most of the pictures related to it here, are later copies of the original, so they are not from 1570, but from later years — Preceding unsigned comment was added by 2.138.14.212 (talk) 15:50, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
