Nederlands: Het eiland Cyprus werd in 1570 door Turkse troepen veroverd op de republiek van Venetië. Drie eeuwen lang maakte het deel uit van het Turkse rijk. Deze kaart van het eiland werd in 1635 gepubliceerd door
Willem Jansz. Blaeu (1571-1638) en
Joan Blaeu (1598-1673). Zij maakten daarbij waarschijnlijk gebruik van een veel oudere kaart van de Italiaanse kartograaf Giacomo Gastaldi (1500-1566).
