Ancient old world map of 1618. Geographica restituta per globi trientes by Franciscus Haraeus

Geographica Restituta per Globi Trientes by Franciscus Haraeus, published in 1618, is an elaborate early 17th-century world map arranged in three oval globe segments. The hand-colored engraving presents the known continents, oceans, ships, sea monsters, cartouches, polar diagrams, and decorative panels, blending geography with Renaissance ornament. Its unusual tripartite design reflects a scholarly attempt to restore and organize global knowledge through both mapmaking and visual spectacle.

Franciscus Haraeus, also known as Frans Haraeus, was a Flemish theologian, historian, and cartographic author active in the early modern period. His maps combined learned historical interests with the expanding geographic knowledge of European exploration. Though less famous than major Dutch publishers, his work remains notable for its inventive formats and richly decorative contribution to 17th-century cartography.
