Ahoy /hr/.

Im looking for other high res maps of the world, the one I have provided doesnt quite meet the quality required as Im looking to print it out on A2 or A1.

Im looking for the kind of old world maps that you would expect the original explorers to make and carry on their ships, pirate maps with "thar be sea dragons here" and such are fine too.

If anyone could post any it would be greatly appreciated, colour and black and white are both fine.

Jesus titty fucking christ, my computer cant handle that image.

Im thinking more along the lines of this (pic related) only less blurry so it will look closer to the genuine article once printed.

Although I just might download that pic at some point.

It's part of the Piri Reis map.

I'm not sure if you're interested in this or not. It's from a 1911 historical atlas. At any rate, I haven't seen it in /hr/ before, so maybe someone else would like it.

And this one's from 1820 but sadly has a large crease down the middle.

And a 1598 map split up into 2 hemispheres. Enjoy.

Ok, I know the Fra Mauro map is already high res, but is there any bigger than that? It's awesome.

To the egyptians south was "up". Most of the mountain ranges drawn confirm this too. I can't read the language though, but it does seem to be the right way too
