"Hemispheriu ab Aequinoctiali Linea, ad Circulu Poli Arctici" it was created by Cornelis de Jode in 1593. It is a depiction of the Northern Hemisphere, from the equatorial line to the Arctic Circle, as the title suggests. The map shows the continents, countries, bodies of water, and other geographical features in that region, and it likely includes lines of latitude and longitude to aid navigation and exploration.

Cornelis de Jode was a Flemish cartographer who lived from 1568 to 1600. His most notable work was the "Speculum Orbis Terrarum" atlas, published in 1593, which contained various maps, including the one you mentioned.

The "Speculum Orbis Terrarum" atlas was considered one of the most significant cartographic achievements of its time and served as a competitor to the famous "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum" atlas by Abraham Ortelius. It contained maps of different parts of the world, showcasing the geographical knowledge available during the late 16th century.

The map "Hemispheriu ab Aequinoctiali Linea, ad Circulu Poli Arctici" by Cornelis de Jode is an important historical document that offers insights into the understanding of the Northern Hemisphere's geography during the Renaissance period.
