Richly arrayed with rhumb lines, three compass roses, a fleet of ships, a coat of arms and a Latinized dedication to the artist and scientist Constantine Huygens. There are three decorative cartouches -- title, key and scale featuring a family group of natives. The map bears Willem Blaeu's signature, but it was published by his son, Johannes. Dutch text on verso, published between 1642-64. hand-coloring. Very good restored condition, this map has been professionally cleaned and backed. Some very mild gery toned soiling remains, and there is some fading of the printing.
