About the Item
Antique map titled 'Map: 'L'Ile de Java'. (The island of Java.) This map shows the Indonesian island of Java. With compass rose and scale.

Van der Aa incorporated plates by other publishers such as Blaeu, Visscher, de Wit, meurs, Halma, Mortier, Allard in this work and often added broad decorative borders. Probably the costliest and complete universal geographic work ever produced. It is said that only 100 copies were printed. Ref: Koeman Aa9; Phillips 2780 note.
