The map "Hierosolyma, Clarissima Totius Orientis Civitas Iudaee Metropoli" was created by Georg Braun and Frans Hogenberg and published in 1572. This map is part of their famous work, "Civitates Orbis Terrarum" (Cities of the World), which was one of the earliest and most comprehensive city atlas collections of the Renaissance period.

The map "Hierosolyma" depicts the city of Jerusalem in great detail, highlighting its topography, streets, buildings, and fortifications as they were understood in the 16th century. It provides a valuable historical perspective on the city during that era.

Georg Braun and Frans Hogenberg were prominent cartographers and publishers known for their significant contributions to Renaissance cartography. They collaborated on one of the most renowned city atlas projects of the 16th century, "Civitates Orbis Terrarum" (Cities of the World).

Georg Braun (1541-1622): Georg Braun was a German cleric and geographer born in Cologne. He was responsible for the textual content and descriptions in the "Civitates Orbis Terrarum." Braun's detailed and informative texts provided historical and cultural context for the maps, making the atlas not only a cartographic masterpiece but also a valuable source of information about cities around the world.

Frans Hogenberg (ca. 1535-1590): Frans Hogenberg was a Flemish engraver and mapmaker who worked in Cologne. He was responsible for the artistic and cartographic aspects of the "Civitates Orbis Terrarum." Hogenberg's skillful engraving brought the cities to life in intricate and artistic detail. His contributions were essential in creating the visual appeal of the atlas.
