Antique Map of the Gulf of Cambay, Gujarat, India, 1725
About the Item
Antique map titled 'Le Golfe de Cambaye at la Rade de Suratt.' (The gulf of Cambay and the coast of Surat, India.) The Gulf of Khambhat, formerly known as the Gulf of Cambay, is an inlet of the Arabian Sea along the west coast of India, in the state of Gujarat.
Extremely rare in this edition. This plate originates from the very scarse: 'La Galerie Agreable du Monde (...).Tome premier des Indes Orientales.', published by P. van der Aa, Leyden, c. 1725. This famous work was published in 66 parts and is the biggest print / map book ever published. Van der Aa incorporated plates by other publishers such as Blaeu, Visscher, de Wit, meurs, Halma, Mortier, Allard in this work and often added broad decorative borders. Probably the costliest and complete universal geographic work ever produced. It is said that only 100 copies were printed. Ref: Koeman Aa9; Phillips 2780 note. The decorative borders were added and are typical for this edition.
Artists and Engravers: Pieter van der Aa (Leiden 1659-1733) was a Dutch publisher best known for preparing maps and atlases. The Galerie Agreable contains plates and maps by the best Dutch engravers: Luiken, Goeree, Mulder, Stoopendaal, de Hooghe, ao.
Condition: Good. General age related toning and occasional light staining from handling. Paper edge uncut and thus irregular and with occasional minimal tears. Small rust hole towards left bottom margin, not effecting image. Please study image carefully.
