This is Johannes Janssonius's 1650 Mar del Nort, a decorative sea chart of the North Atlantic. Covering from Dutch New Netherland to the Caribbean and the shores of Europe and Africa, the map presents the ocean at the center of an expanding maritime world. Elaborate cartouches, a dense network of rhumb lines, and the phantom islands of Brasil and Buss combine the elegance of Dutch Golden Age engraving with the uncertainties of early oceanic exploration. Date: 1650 (undated) Note: Beautifully Engraved Chart of the Atlantic. References: Rumsey 10056.007. Phillips 5944. New York Public Library, b15315219. OCLC 1124469373.
