Antique Map of Harvey Island and Surroundings by Cook, 1803
About the Item
Antique map Oceania titled 'Harvey's Eiland...''.
This map originates from 'Reizen Rondom de Waereld door James Cook''.
Old engraving by James Cook 1778.
Engraved by Robert Bernard
Four engraved voyage maps on one sheet: Isle d'Harvey (Manuae), Isle Palmerston (Palmerston Island), Isle de la Tortue (Vatoa Island), Isle Savage (Niue Island).
Captain James Cook named the islands the Hervey Islands. This is an original engraving from the time.
In three voyages Cook sailed thousands of miles across largely uncharted areas of the globe. He mapped lands from New Zealand to Hawaii in the Pacific Ocean in greater detail and on a scale not previously achieved. As he progressed on his voyages of discovery he surveyed and named features, and recorded islands and coastlines on European maps for the first time. He displayed a combination of seamanship, superior surveying and cartographic skills, physical courage and an ability to lead men in adverse conditions.
Cook was killed in Hawaii in a fight with Hawaiians during his third exploratory voyage in the Pacific in 1779. He left a legacy of scientific and geographical knowledge which was to influence his successors well into the 20th century and numerous memorials worldwide have been dedicated to him.
