Antique Map of New Ireland Island in the Bismarck Archipelago, New Guinea, 1772
About the Item
Antique map titled 'Nova Hibernia'. Antique map of New Ireland, an island in the Bismarck Archipelago, New Guinea. Lying just north of New Britain, from which it is separated by St. George's Channel, it was once believed to be part of one landmass combining New Britain and New Guinea. This theory was disproved in 1767 when Philip Carteret found St. George's Channel and named the island, Nova Hibernia. The other prints depict islands also part of the Bismarck Archipelago. Artists and Engravers: Philip Carteret: British naval officer and explorer who participated in two of the Royal Navy's circumnavigation expeditions in 1764-66 and 1766-69.
