The entire series of the 'Civitates Orbis Terrarum' comprised six volumes and was published and printed from 1572 towards 1619. Decorative panoramic city view of the city of Brixen in South Tyrol with the rivers Eisak and Rienz. The landscape is ornated in the background with the alps, as well wine yards in the foreground.
