Item Details
Description
likely 17th century. entitled “Virginiae partis australis, et Floridae partis orientalis, interjacentiumqus regionum Nova Descriptio.” engraving by Jan Jansson after the circa 1638 work of Willem J. Blaeu. depicting the coastline from Virginia to Northern Florida, and featuring a cartouche with six natives. partially hand-colored. framed and matted. “Blaeu (1650), 132” is written in pencil at bottom. sight size: H17” W20 ½” Note: The Jansson edition is almost indistinguishable from Blaeu’s work, but one indicator is that Blaeu’s eastern-most longitude marking incorrectly reads “200”, while Jansson’s reads “300”. Later 18th century reprints of Jansson’s map by Valk and Schenk include latitude and longitude lines.
