More Information
A rare and beautifully engraved map of the old world divided into seven climatic zones according to the Ancient Greek geographer Strabo. Depicts Europe, Asia, and northern Africa. Surrounded by seven wind heads. At the northern polar caps is a wonderful allegorical vignette of the mythological wind god Aiolos whose floating prison island of Aiolia constrained the storm sprits Anemoi Thuellai and Aellai. Here Aiolos is shows restraining the North Wind, depicted as a winged dog, with a chain. Cartographically this map corresponds with the late 17th century view of the world. Japan, Korea and Kamtschaka are absent and the Caspian Sea is drawn larger east-west than north-south.

What is Infinity Framing?
Wow Factor
Infinity frame
The image is printed on a durable fabric, which is stretched inside a slim aluminum frame. It’s transportable, interchangeable, and easy to assemble. Our infinity frame pieces for large sized prints will lend a “wow” factor to your space.
Better than Canvas
The colors in our fabric prints are crisp and true to life, with a matte, glare-free finish. With our printing process, the colors permeate the fabric, rather than settling on top, which reduces the risk of scratching or fading. Your art will last a long time!
Easy to Install
Assemble the frame in minutes, insert the fabric print into the grooves, and your art is ready to hang!
