The Hereford World Map: Mappa Mundi | A limited edition from The Folio Society

The Hereford World Map, made in around 1300, is recognised by UNESCO as an exceptionally important cultural artefact: the medieval world in one iconic object. Now it is available for you to own in a new reproduction from The Folio Society, limited to 1,000 numbered copies.

The Mappa Mundi is a spiritual and historical map, which conveys the teachings of the Bible and depicts the wonders of history and legend. To create this restored reproduction, The Folio Society has used digital technology to peel away the years and reveal, as much as possible, the glory of the medieval original.

The Folio Society produces beautifully crafted collector’s editions of the world’s greatest books, each with unique illustrations or specially researched photographs throughout. Find the books you love at foliosociety.com.
