Planisfero Del Mondo Nuovo Descritto — Aevi Veteris Usque Ad Annum Salutis Nonagesimum Supra Milles Quaringentos Cogniti Tantum Typus Geographic.
Two-sheet, hand-coloured world map published in Vincenzo Maria Coronelli’s Atlante Veneto (see our previous item).
For the depiction of the Western hemisphere the most recent sources of the age – like Abel Tasman’s Australian discoveries among others – had been used, therefore, the early coastline of New Zealand and New Guinea can be observed. Nevertheless, the contemporary cartographical mistakes of the age are also present such as the Anian Strait or the Terra di Iesso, California is represented as a separate island, and Asia and Japan have a strangely shaped coastline.
The representation of the Eastern hemisphere builds on the works of the classical cartographers (Ptolemy, Strabo and Pomponius Mela). Europe, Africa and a large part of Asia are visible, but Japan, China and Asia’s northeastern region are completely missing.
In the frames of both sheets, the pictures of the Zodiac signs, various, coordinates-related information and dedications (to Jacopo and Andrea Marcello) can be found.
Dimensions: 470 x 620 (490 x 670) mm. 2 fine, clear, coloured sheets.
