in Historical Maps of Brazil and the World
Mapa do México e da América Central de 1671"Yucatan Conventus Iuridici Hispaniae Novae Pars Occidentalis, et Guatimala Conventus Iuridicus", Montanus/Ogilby A obra de Montanus foi talvez o maior livro ilustrado sobre o Novo Mundo produzido no século XVII. Continha mais de cem placas, vistas e mapas da América do Norte e do Sul magnificamente gravados. As placas retratam vividamente fortalezas, festivais, ocupações, frotas holandesas, batalhas, ritos religiosos e costumes dos habitantes nativos. Esta importante obra foi traduzida para o alemão por Olivier Dapper e para o inglês por John Ogilby. Várias das placas foram posteriormente adquiridas por Pierre Vander Aa. Este mapa decorativo cobre a região da Cidade do México até a Cidade do Panamá, incluindo parte de Cuba, e é baseado no mapa de Blaeu da península de Yucatan. Cozumel é nomeado, e o Lago Nicarágua é apresentado numa orientação leste-oeste. Este mapa está ricamente decorado com navios em batalha, Neptuno e a sua comitiva, e uma elaborada cartela de título com nativos, putti e uma grande concha.

Map of Mexico and Central America, 1671, “Yucatan Conventus Iuridici Hispaniae Novae Pars Occidentalis, et Guatimala Conventus Iuridicus”, Montanus/Ogilby. Montanus’ work was perhaps the largest illustrated book on the New World produced in the 17th century. It contains over one hundred beautifully engraved plates, views and maps of North and South America. The plates depict in great detail fortresses, festivals, occupations, Dutch fleets, battles, religious rites and native customs. This important work was translated into German by Olivier Dapper and into English by John Ogilby. Some of the plates were later acquired by Pierre Vander Aa. This decorative map covers the region from Mexico City to Panama City, including part of Cuba, and is based on Blaeu’s map of the Yucatan Peninsula. Cozumel is named and Lake Nicaragua is shown in an east-west orientation. This map is richly decorated with ships in battle, Neptune and his entourage, and an elaborate title cartouche with natives, putti, and a large conch shell. 1671 Map of Mexico and Central America – Historical Map
