Description
Map taken from the very rare Orbis Augustinianus sive Conventuum Ordinis Eremitarum Sanctii Augustini Chorographica et Topographica Descriptio published in Paris in 1659 and later reprinted in 1672.
The work made by Lubin, is very similar in its conception, to the one made for the Franciscan order in 1649 and is intended to represent the provinces in which the Augustinian order is present, with the location of the convents.
The Order of the Hermits of St. Augustine (in Latin Ordo Eremitarum Sancti Augustini) is a religious institute that tradition traces its origins to St. Augustine. Officially, the Order arose in 1244 from the union, promoted by Cardinal Riccardo Annibaldi and sanctioned by Pope Innocent IV, of the fraternities of hermits of Tuscia into a single religious family under the leadership of a prior general and under the rule of St. Augustine. In 1256 the hermits of St. Augustine were joined by other congregations.
Copperplate engraving, in perfect condition. Very rare.
