Antique map titled 'Insulae Iavae cum parte insularum Borneo Sumatrae, et circumjacentium insularum novissima delineatio'. Beautiful map of Java and parts of Bali, Borneo, Sumatra and surrounding islands.
This map was intended to be a sea chart, therefore the interior detail is minimal. The Dutch capital in the East Indies is located at Batavia (Jakarta) where a small fort is shown. The beautiful chart is richly embellished with two fine cartouches featuring natives and Chinese merchants flanking the title and Neptune and mermaids surrounding the scale of miles.
