EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured print on vellum showcases the territorial holdings of the Dutch West India Company in 1710. Measuring an impressive 77.3x95.2 cm, this map is a testament to the cartographic skills of Guillaume and Jean Bleau, prominent figures in 17th-century cartography. Published by Johannes van Kuelen, this late issue map is significant for being one of the first to depict the Strait of Le Maire and Argentina, discovered in 1616. It provides a comprehensive view of America, Africa, and Europe's coastlines with intricate details that highlight hydrography and sea charts. The Dutch West India Company played a crucial role in maritime exploration and trade during its incorporation in 1621. This print offers a glimpse into their vast territorial holdings across various continents. With rhumb lines guiding navigation routes throughout the seas, this map serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a valuable historical document. Its vibrant colours bring life to each landmass and ocean expanse depicted. Housed at the New York Public Library in the United States, this remarkable piece captures not only geographical information but also echoes tales of adventure from centuries past. As you gaze upon it, imagine sailors embarking on perilous journeys through uncharted waters while seeking new opportunities for commerce under the banner of Amsterdam's Netherlands-based company.
