Map of Madeira and the Canary Islands, c. 1692 - Map details the Canary Island group on the left side of the map. The map is filled with rhumblines, fleur-de-lis and many notations and includes a portion of the African coastline. With two large inset charts filling the right half resting on a tasseled drapery background. The upper inset is a detailed chart of the island of Madeira, a volcanic archipelago in the North Atlantic north of the Canary Islands. The town of Madera (Fanchal) is shown below in a birds eye view that includes several ships in the harbor with the fortified town at the shore. The map is very decorative and beautifully engraved in Coronelli's characteristic style. Dedicated to Alvise da Mosto, "Procr di S. M. Sauio Grande." Blank verso. Vincenzo Coronelli was a Franciscan priest and renowned mathematician and cartographer. He was appointed official Cosmographer to the Venetian Republic in 1685 and founded the world's earliest geographic society, L'Accademia Cosmografica degli Argonauti.
