Hollandia Nova detecta 1644 Terre Australe découverte l'an 1644

An extremely rare map that holds a significant place not only in the charting of Tasman's voyages but also in the mapping of the Australian continent as a whole. It records a shape of Australia that would remain unchanged until the grand exploits of Captain Cook some one hundred and ten years later.
 

A seminal map for collectors of the fifth continent.
