Netherlands East Indies Map with Java Inset – Nieuwe Hand-Atlas, 1876
Located in Langweer, NL
Netherlands East Indies Map with Java Inset – Nieuwe Hand-Atlas, 1876
This impressive 19th-century map titled “Nederlandsch Oost-Indië” presents the Dutch colonial territories in Southeast Asia with exceptional clarity and detail. Published in 1876 in the *Nieuwe Hand-Atlas der Aarde in haren Tegenwoordigen Toestand* by M. Frijlink, revised by A. van Otterloo, and produced by D. Noothoven van Goor in Leiden, the plate offers a full geographical overview of the Netherlands East Indies at a time when Dutch influence in the archipelago was rapidly consolidating.
The map spans Sumatra, Java, Borneo, Celebes (Sulawesi), the Moluccas, Timor, Bali, Lombok, Flores, Sumba, Sumbawa, the Banda Islands, Buru, Ceram, New Guinea, and parts of the Malay Peninsula. Each island group is precisely engraved, and political divisions, residency boundaries, mountains, rivers, and transport routes are clearly marked. Place names appear in their 19th-century Dutch forms—Batavia, Buitenzorg, Soerakarta, Madura, Makassar, Padang, Palembang, and many others—providing an important historical reference for scholars of Indonesian colonial history.
Hand-colored outlines distinguish administrative regions and residencies, while the fine line engraving captures coastal contours, mountain chains, river deltas and volcanic features that shaped the archipelago’s geography. Java receives its own large inset occupying the entire lower half of the sheet, reflecting its central importance to Dutch colonial administration and its dense network of cities, roads, sugar plantations, and regencies.
Additional inset maps include:
• **Sumatra’s west coast**, showing Padang and the Minangkabau highlands
• **Timor and surrounding islands**
• **Ambon and the Moluccas** (the historic spice islands)
• **Celebes and the Gulf of Tomini**
• **The Lesser Sunda Islands** (Bali to Timor)
• **Borneo residency divisions**
• **Detailed harbour plans**, including Batavia and Makassar
Together these elements make the map an outstanding reference for the Dutch East Indies during the late colonial period. It represents not just geography but also trade networks, maritime routes, and administrative structure, all rendered with the elegance and scientific precision characteristic of Dutch cartography of the era.
Condition Report: Good, with expected light toning and occasional foxing, mostly at the margins. Original center fold as issued. The engraved image is sharp and the hand-coloring remains soft and even. No tears, holes, or repairs.
Framing Tips: A warm ivory or cream mat suits the soft 19th-century color palette. A dark wood, black, or teak-tone frame complements Southeast Asian interior themes and gives the map a strong presence. Because of the many attractive inset maps, a slightly wider mat enhances readability and visual balance.
Keywords: Netherlands East Indies, Dutch East Indies, Indonesia, Java, Sumatra, Borneo, Kalimantan, Celebes, Sulawesi, Bali, Lombok, Sumbawa, Flores, Timor, Moluccas, Spice Islands, Ambon, Banda, Ceram, Buru, Aceh, Minangkabau, Padang, Palembang, Batavia, Jakarta, Buitenzorg, Bogor, Soerakarta, Surakarta, Jogjakarta, Makassar, Menado, Kupang, Riau, Malay Peninsula, New Guinea, Papua, colonial Indonesia, VOC history, 19th century Indonesia map...
