Ancient Course of the Ganges: A First Ptolemaic Map of India by Mercator, c.1584
Located in Langweer, NL
This remarkable map, titled "Asiae X Tab:", is a significant historical artifact that represents the convergence of knowledge and craftsmanship from two of the most esteemed figures in the history of geography and cartography.
Created by Gerard Mercator and based on the geographical insights of Claudius Ptolemy, this map is part of the rare first issue published in Brussels in 1578.
The map itself meticulously delineates the region between the Indus and Ganges rivers, an area of immense historical and geographical importance. It is an excellent representation of Ptolemy's second-century geographical data, which was fundamental in shaping the modern principles of mapmaking. Mercator, renowned for his precision and dedication to adhering closely to Ptolemy's original intentions, showcases this commitment through the detailed depiction of this significant Asian landscape.
This edition stands out not only for its historical accuracy but also for its artistic execution. Gerard Mercator, who was also an innovator in the use of the italic hand for map lettering, first introduced this style in his "Literarum latinarum" in 1540. The use of italics in this map enhances its legibility and aesthetic appeal, which became a hallmark of the finest sixteenth and seventeenth-century Dutch maps, largely attributed to Mercator’s influence.
The map measures 13 ½ x 18 inches and features fine hand coloring, which has been preserved in almost excellent condition alttough there some browning due to age. As a splendid example of the first issue from Mercator’s definitive edition of Ptolemy’s "Geographia", it not only serves as a testament to the rich history of geographical exploration but also stands as a beacon of the enduring legacy of its makers, shaping the future of cartographic design and precision.
The map "Asiae X Tab:", focusing on the region between the Indus and Ganges rivers, highlights several areas and cities of historical and geographical importance that are likely of interest to scholars, historians, and collectors. Here are key locations depicted on the map:
1. **Indus River**: As one of the major rivers of Asia and a cradle of ancient civilizations like the Indus Valley Civilization, the Indus River holds significant historical importance.
2. **Ganges River**: Another crucial river not just for its cultural and religious significance in India, but also as a vital geographic feature in ancient and medieval maps...

Bay of Saint Helena: French Naval Chart by N.B. Ingénieur de la Marine, ca.1770
Located in Langweer, NL
Bay of Saint Helena: French Naval Chart by N.B. Ingénieur de la Marine, 18th Century
This meticulously detailed copper engraving, titled 'Carte de la Baye de Sainte Helene' (Map of the Bay of Saint Helena), was drawn by N.B., an engineer of the French Navy (*Ingénieur de la Marine*). The map was created based on the navigational observations of mariners and published in the 18th century, most likely in France. It offers a precise and practical representation of Saint Helena Bay, a crucial anchorage point in the South Atlantic Ocean.
Saint Helena Bay, located on the island of Saint Helena, was an important stopover for ships sailing between Europe and Asia, particularly for Dutch and British vessels during the Age of Exploration and the later colonial period. Its significance was further heightened when the island became the final exile location of Napoleon Bonaparte from 1815 to 1821.
The map shows the bay with impressive attention to detail, depicting the coastline with numerous soundings marked in French and English leagues (*Lieues Marines de France et d'Angleterre*), allowing navigators to gauge the water depth and avoid hazards. The bay’s natural topography, including hills and coastal elevations, is rendered in delicate engraving lines. A large central peak dominates the landscape, surrounded by rugged terrain, while a smaller inlet and river (*Riviere*) are also shown, highlighting the complex geography of the bay.
A decorative fleur-de-lis compass rose marks the left side of the chart, indicating orientation and providing a clear sense of direction for mariners. The map's clean and elegant design reflects the French cartographic tradition of combining functional navigation aids with aesthetic appeal.
The chart includes practical features such as scale indicators and coastal profiles that help sailors recognize the bay from a distance. The detailed soundings marked throughout the bay make this map an invaluable tool for understanding the navigational challenges of the area, particularly for large, heavily laden ships.
This rare chart belongs to a series of marine maps...
