A hand-colored engraved map titled "THE EMPIRE OF THE GREAT TURKISH LORD" by Nicolaus Visscher. The central portion of the map is hidden behind a large white digital placeholder. The visible parts show the Black Sea area in the upper right and the North African coast at the bottom. A large, ornate decorative cartouche is positioned at the bottom center. It is crowned with an eagle and a snake, and flanked by allegorical figures: on the left, a man in traditional Ottoman attire (caftan and turban) holding a staff; on the right, several figures including a kneeling man. The cartouche contains the map's title, publication details, and four horizontal scale bars representing different types of miles.
