Description
Nederlands: Deze kaart van Malta werd uitgegeven door Nicolaes Visscher II (1649-1702). Het eiland Malta was vooral bekend door de militair, religieuze ridderorde van de Johanniters die daar gevestigd was. Het wapenschild van de orde is op de kaart afgebeeld. Na de kruistochten waarin zij zich als ziekenbroeders hadden onderscheiden, hielden de Johanniters zich naast hun traditionele taken, vooral bezig met de beveiliging van de Middelandse Zee tegen Turkse indringers.; Linksonder een inzet met een overzichtskaart van het Middelands Zeegebied.
English: The map of Malta was published by Nicolaes Visscher II (1649-1702). The island Malta was generally known for its military, religious knight order of the Johanniters who had established themselves on the island. After the Crusades during which they distinguished themselves as hospital helpers, the Johanniters took care to secure the Mediterranean Sea against the Turks. This is a zoomed in version of the map, on the south eastern corner.
