About the Item
Antique map titled 'Chart of Discoveries made in the South Pacific Ocean'.
Rare engraving from the official British Admiralty sanctioned edition of the accounts of Cook’s second voyage. All other later copies made of this image by other publishers were unauthorised, usually smaller and inferior in quality. Made after Cook's discovery of the island group on 4 September 1774, which he named New Caledonia. The Resolution remained in New Caledonia from 5 to 13 September, 1774. Originates from Cook's 'A Voyage Towards the South Pole, and Round the World, performed in His Majesty's Ships the 'Resolution' and 'Adventure', In the Years 1772, 1773, 1774, and 1775'.
Artists and Engravers: James Cook (Author, 1728-1779) was a British captain, explorer and cartographer.
