Map of Eastern Brazil 1664
This beautiful map of the Brazilian coast is richly decorated with a scene of natives with a watchtower and a huge fleet of ships.
With north to the right, the map covers the coastal region from São Francisco to Recife. It was based on real surveys by Georg Marcgraf, Elias Herckmanns and others and 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. This example is the second state with the addition of a native in the watchtower. “Praefecturae Paranambucae Pars Meridionalis”, Blaeu, Johannes
