Description:
Rare, large map by Vander AA, first published in 1713, with an elaborate title cartouche comprising a seated female native with a lion, snake and elephants, set in a landscape. Unlike many maps of the period Vander Aa, omits much of the ‘current’ speculation of inland Africa which was yet unknown. Pierre Vander AA, apprenticed at the age of 9, Vander AA had started as a book publisher by the age of 23. His publications include an ‘Atlas Nouveau‘ completed in about 1710, and the Galerie Agreable du Mond.
From Vander Aa’s, Nouveau Theatre du Monde.
