Description
CORONELLI, Vicenzo (1650-1718). Planisfero del Mondo Nuovo, Descritto… Copperplate Engraving. Venice, 1691. 19 1/2 x 28 inches sheet, 28 x 37 inches framed
Italy’s Greatest 17th Century Map Maker. A very fine map of the Western Hemisphere including the discoveries made by Abel Tasman in Australia and an early image of the New Zealand coastline, plus California as an Island. The treatment of the Northeastern Coast of Asia and Japan are also quite unusual, including a representation of Terra di Iesso, the mythical land bridge which was frequently shown to extend from Asia to Alaska, with only the Straits of Anian separating the two continents.
