Afrique, Carte - Afrique du Sud, Botswana, Zambie, Zimbabwe, Angola, Mozambique, Madagascar....; Olfert Dapper / Jacob Van Meurs - Aethiopia Inferior vel Exterior - 1681-1700
Aethiopia Inferior vel Exterior (1668)
Lovely map covering the southern part of Africa. The map is based on Blaeu's map of 1662. It is embellished with six sailing ships, and wild animals roaming the interior. The large title cartouche includes several figures. Published in the first edition of Olfert Dapper´s "Naukeurige Beschrijvingen der Afrikaensche gewesten" and "Naukeurige beschrijvinge der Afrikaensche Eylanden".
Olfert Dapper’s ‘Description of Africa’ was an ethnographic book which offered a detailed description of the parts of Africa known to Europeans in the mid-seventeenth century. Despite the work being regarded as one of the most important and detailed seventeenth-century publications on Africa, Dapper himself never actually visited the continent. Instead, he relied on the reports of Jesuit missionaries and Dutch explorers. The ‘Description of Africa’ was first published in 1668 by Jacob van Meurs in Amsterdam
Excellent condition.
