Description

copper engraving. EXTREMELY RARE map from ‘Oud en Nieuw Oost-Indien’, Apparently closely copied from an earlier manuscript by the famous VOC cartographer, Johannes Vingboons (1650 – 70). Francois Valentijn (1666-1727) spent several years in the East Indies, using official archives and documents (many of which were destroyed at Batavia during World War II) in compiling his collection, especially in the fields of history, geography and ethnology.
