Map of the East Coast of Brazil, 1647 – Historical Maps

Mapa da Costa Leste do Brasil de 1647 - Este belo mapa da costa brasileira é adornado com uma enorme guirlanda no topo com muitas frutas nativas e uma onça, anta e capivara. Com o norte orientado para a direita, o mapa cobre a região litorânea do São Francisco ao sul até a foz do rio Vaza-Barris. O mapa traça os rios no interior com nomes de lugares e detalhes topográficos ao longo de suas margens. Há uma escaramuça naval, três navios holandeses e uma canoa na costa do Atlântico. Foi desenhado após pesquisas reais de Georg Marcgraf, Elias Herckmanns e outros e estava entre os primeiros mapas do Brasil baseados em dados não portugueses. Blaeu emitiu pela primeira vez este e seus mapas complementares em 1647 para Gaspar Barleus' Rerum per octennium in Brasília. Eles também foram reunidos em um grande mapa de parede, Brasília qua parte paret Belgis. Os mapas então apareceram no Atlas Maior a partir de 1662. "Praefectura de Ciriii, vel Seregirppe Delrey cum Itapuama", Blaeu, Johannes
Map of the East Coast of Brazil from 1647 – This beautiful map of the Brazilian coast is decorated with a huge garland of native fruits and a jaguar, tapir and capybara at the top. With north oriented to the right, the map covers the coastal region from São Francisco south to the mouth of the Vaza-Barris River. The map follows the rivers inland, with place names and topographical details along their banks. There is a naval skirmish, three Dutch ships and a canoe on the Atlantic coast. Based on real surveys by Georg Marcgraf, Elias Herckmanns and others, it was one of the first maps of Brazil based on non-Portuguese data. Blaeu first published this and its supplementary maps in 1647 for Gaspar Barleus’ Rerum per octennium in Brasília. They were also compiled into a large wall map, Brasília qua parte paret Belgis. The maps then appeared in the Atlas Maior of 1662. “Praefectura de Ciriii, vel Seregirppe Delrey cum Itapuama”, Blaeu, Johannes
