Description
Nederlands: Kaart van Brazilië.

Brasilia.

Bij de cartouche links zijn door Europeanen onderworpen Indianen te zien.

De kaart verscheen ook in: A. Montanus, 'De nieue en onbekende weereld', Amsterdam 1671 en J. Nieuhof, 'Gedenkwaerdige zee

en lantreize', Amsterdam 1682. Respectievelijk: Koninklijke Bibliotheek, inv. nr. 185 B 14 deel II, na p. 358 en Koninklijke Bibliotheek, inv. nr. 388 A 9 deel I, na p. 28.

De kaart werd vermoedelijk samengesteld door Krystof Arciszeweski, een Poolse generaal in dienst van de West-Indische Compagnie.

Cf. Koninklijke Bibliotheek, inv. nr. 388 A 4 deel I, na p. 28.

De kaart lijkt sterk op de kaart in de Atlas Maior van Joannes Blaeu. De cartouches en versieringen wijken af.
English: Map of Brazil.

Brasilia.

Flanking the cartouche on the left are Indians subjugated by the Europeans.

The chart was also published in A. Montanus, 'De nieue en onbekende weereld', Amsterdam 1671 and J. Nieuhof, 'Gedenkwaerdige zee

en lantreize', Amsterdam 1682. Respectively: Koninklijke Bibliotheek, inv. nr. 185 B 14 deel II, after p. 358 and Koninklijke Bibliotheek, inv. nr. 388 A 9 deel I, after p. 28.

The chart is thought to have been compiled by Krystof Arciszeweski, a Polish general in the service of the West-Indische Compagnie.

Cf. Koninklijke Bibliotheek, inv. nr. 388 A 4 part I, after p. 28.

The chart strongly resembles the map in Joannes Blaeu's Atlas Maior. The cartouches and decorations are different, however.
