Description

Afbeeldinge der Oude Waereld; benevens Derzelver verdeling onder de Nakomelingen Noachs.

An interesting and uncommon map of the 'Old World' showing the continents of Europe, Asia and Africa divided among Noah's sons. The continental outlines are shown according to 18th century knowledge with interiors reflecting Ptolemaic models. The map includes a key in a drape-style cartouche and the title cartouche incorporates a large landscape showing the migrations setting out from the Tower of Babel and a large tree representing Noah's descendants. From a Statenbijbel published by Nicolaas Goetzee. Engraved by Jan van Jagen.  This map is mounted on linnen and is folded.
