An antique-style illustrated map titled “Mapa da África do Século XV” depicts the African continent and surrounding regions, including Europe, Arabia, Asia, the Atlantic Ocean, and the Indian Ocean. It features Portuguese labels, rivers, settlements, animals, ships bearing red crosses, decorative sea creatures, compass lines, heraldic shields, and ornate cherubs around the title cartouche. The parchment-toned map uses muted tan, blue, green, and red colors within a decorative border, creating a historical maritime atmosphere.
