In this note, we prove a Schwarz–Pick-type lemma for minimal maps between negatively curved Riemann surfaces. More precisely, we prove that if $$f:M\rightarrow N$$f:M→N is a minimal map with bounded Jacobian determinant between two complete negatively curved Riemann surfaces M and N whose sectional curvatures $$\sigma _M$$σM and $$\sigma _N$$σN satisfy $$\inf \sigma _M\ge \sup \sigma _N$$infσM≥supσN, then f is area decreasing.
