"Premislia" is a notable illustration from the "Civitates Orbis Terrarum," which is considered one of the most important works of urban cartography from the 16th century. The "Civitates Orbis Terrarum," or "Cities of the World," was a collection of city maps and views that was produced by Georg Braun and primarily engraved by Franz Hogenberg. Joris Hoefnagel, an artist and engraver of Flemish origin, contributed to this seminal work by providing some of the illustrations, including the depiction of Premislia.

The "Civitates Orbis Terrarum" was published in six volumes between 1572 and 1617 and contained over 500 maps and views of cities from around the world. It served as a comprehensive visual record of urban life in the late Renaissance period. Hoefnagel's work within this collection is particularly noted for its meticulous detail and artistic quality, which not only provided a geographical representation of the cities but also captured the essence of urban life during that era.

The illustration of Premislia by Joris Hoefnagel stands out as an important historical document, offering insights into the architecture, layout, and environment of the city during the 16th century. It is a valuable resource for historians, geographers, and art historians, reflecting the intersection of cartography, art, and the burgeoning interest in the wider world that characterized the Renaissance period. The "Premislia" illustration, like others in the "Civitates Orbis Terrarum," is a testament to the collaborative efforts of scholars, artists, and engravers who sought to document and understand the diversity of urban centers across the globe.
