About the Item
Antique map titled 'L'Inde de ca le Gange suivant les nouvelles observations (..)'.
Detailed map of India, with part of Sri Lanka. Compass rose and decorative cartouche lower right with scale and elephants. This map originates from '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.
