Map of Brazil from 1695
“Nova et Accurata Brasiliae totius Tabula”, Blaeu/Schenk
Este escasso e belo mapa é o terceiro mapa do Brasil de Johannes Blaeu.
This scarce, beautiful map is Johannes Blaeu’s third map of Brazil. Designed by Joannes de Broen and engraved by Abraham Wolfgang, it was completed shortly before the great fire that destroyed the printing house, and therefore was never included in Blaeu’s atlases.
In 1694 Pieter Schenk acquired a number of Blaeu’s copperplates, including this one.
The map includes the capitanias along the coast and is a significant improvement over Blaeu’s previous maps of Brazil.
The handsome cartouche is surrounded by cherubs and a river god and Schenk’s imprint appears below the title.
