Description: Antique map titled 'Pelagnisi.' Map of the island of Kyra Panagia, Pelagnisi (Pelagos), Greece. This map originates from 'Nauwkeurige Beschrijving der eilanden in de Archipel der Middellantsche Zee' by Olfert Dapper.

Artists and Engravers: Made by 'Olfert Dapper' after an anonymous artist. Olfert Dapper (c. 1635 - 1689) was a Dutch physician and writer.
