Antique Map of the Santa Cruz Islands with Inset of Carteret and Gower Islands
About the Item
Antique map titled 'Isles de la Reine Charlotte (..)'. A detailed chart of the Santa Cruz islands, to the north of the New Hebrides, with Carteret's track in "Swallow"; including an inset chart of Carteret and Gower Islands. Relief is shown by hachuring; vegetation is marked by small tree-symbols, revealing that the tops of the mountains were wooded. Along the explored coast of the "Isle Du Lord Egmont", palm trees and huts have been drawn, perhaps marking native settlements. A particularly detailed volcano spewing smoke is shown in profile to the North of this island. Prevailing winds are marked with arrows.
Published in an edition of John Hawkesworth's atlas to accompany a French edition of Captain James Cook's voyages to the Southern Hemisphere. Published 1774.
