This map shows the World on a Mercator projection, with the title contained within a panel. Decorative scrollwork above and decorative panels to either side and below categorising the land divisions. Original outline colour defines the landmasses, with an extraordinary depiction of California as an island and a vast southern land postulated, here called Lænder des Sud Pols. Also shown are the Dutch commercial interests in the East and West Indies with tracings of the various trade routes. Two ships decorate the map at the top corners. Scarce. Fold(s) as given.
