About the Item

Antique map titled 'La rade de Bantam'. (The roadstead of Bantam.) This map shows the Indonesian city of Banten / Bantam on Java, Indonesia and its roadstead. With compass rose and scale.

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.
