Description
Nederlands: Deze kaart werd in 1638 door Joan Blaeu (1598-1673) en Cornelius Blaeu (1610-1642) gepubliceerd. De kaart toont een deel van het huidige India. In de 17de eeuw was behalve de kustlijn, over dit enorme land nauwelijks iets bekend. Dat wordt ook uit de kaart duidelijk. In het westen zijn er bijvoorbeeld twee grote meren, die er in werkelijkheid helemaal niet zijn.; Linksonder een opdracht van Joan en Cornelius Blaeu aan Johan Huydekoper.
English: The map was published in 1638 by Joan Blaeu (1598-1673) and Cornelius Blaeu (1610-1642). The map shows part of the current state of India. In the 17th century, very little was known about this country except for its shoreline. The map makes this clear: in the west two large lakes can be seen which are pure fantasy.
