This quickly evolved into the creation of his wall map, the Carta Marina. From 1530 to 1537 Olaus and Johannes were traveling or living in Danzig, where they became pensioners of the Polish archbishop and the city council (Magnus 1996, I:xxx-xxxi). In 1537 the brothers moved to Venice, where from September, 1538 to the end of 1540 they were guests of Hieronymo Quirino, the Patriarch of the Republic of Venice. The Carta Marina was finally printed there in 1539 with the financial support of Quirino, to whom the map was dedicated. Apparently only a few copies of the map were completed, possibly because the 440 ducats allotted for woodcutting and printing did not pay for many copies.
