“Nova et Accurata Brasiliae Totius Tabula, Auctore Ioanne Blaeu I.F.”, Blaeu/Schenk
This scarce map is Johannes Blaeu’s third map of Brazil. It includes the captaincies along the coast and is a significant improvement on Blaeu’s previous maps of Brazil. The beautiful cartouche is surrounded by cherubs and a river god. This map, drawn by Joannes de Broen and engraved by Abraham Wolfgang, was completed just before the great fire that destroyed the printing house and was therefore only included in one edition of Blaeu’s atlases. In 1694 Pieter Schenk acquired several of Blaeu’s copper plates, including this one.
