Large Map of Russian Discoveries in Siberia, Alaska & the Bering Strait, 1784
Located in Langweer, NL
1784 Russian Discoveries in Siberia, Alaska & the Bering Strait - Gerhard Friedrich Muller
"Nouvelle Carte des Decouvertes Faites par des Vaisseaux Russiens Aux Cotes Inconnues de L'Amerique Septentrionale avec Les Pais Adiacents" is a seminal map by Gerhard Friedrich Muller, showcasing Russian discoveries in Siberia, Alaska, and the Bering Strait region. Originally published in 1754, this map served as a direct counter to Guillaume de L'Isle's speculative "fantasy" map of the same area, which prominently featured the fictitious Mer de l'Ouest (Sea of the West).
This edition, published in 1784 by the Imperial Academy of Sciences in St. Petersburg, reflects the substantial geographic knowledge gained through Russian explorations, particularly the voyages of Vitus Bering. It accurately depicts the northern Pacific coasts, focusing on Siberia, the Aleutian Islands, and the Alaskan coast. The hand-coloring remains vibrant, emphasizing key geographic details, and a richly decorated rococo cartouche adorns the upper right, indicating the map's origins.
This map is a significant artifact, illustrating the progression of cartographic accuracy and the influence of Russian expeditions in shaping the early knowledge of the North Pacific and Arctic regions.
The 1784 edition of Gerhard Friedrich Muller's map features the routes of key Russian voyages that explored the North Pacific, specifically those related to the exploration of Siberia, Alaska, and the Bering Strait. These include:
1. Vitus Bering's Voyages (1728 and 1741) - The map shows routes of Vitus Bering, a Danish explorer in the Russian Navy, who led two important expeditions:
- During his first Kamchatka Expedition (1728), Bering navigated through what is now known as the Bering Strait, proving that Siberia and Alaska were separated by a sea.
- His second Kamchatka Expedition (1741) extended further eastward to Alaska. This journey greatly expanded European knowledge of the northern Pacific and confirmed Alaska as part of the North American continent.
2. Aleksei Chirikov's Route (1741) - As part of the second Kamchatka Expedition, Aleksei Chirikov, who was Bering's second-in-command, led a separate ship and reached the Alaskan coast, discovering the southeastern parts of Alaska and providing further detailed knowledge of the area.
3. Russian Navigators in the Aleutian Islands - The map also shows the exploration routes in and around the Aleutian Islands, which were instrumental for Russian fur...

1750 Bellin Map of the Red River (Tonkin River) and Hanoi, Vietnam
Located in Langweer, NL
Title: 1750 Bellin Map of the Red River and Hanoi, Vietnam
Description: This finely engraved eighteenth-century French map, titled Carte du Cours de la Riviere de Tunquin, was created by the renowned cartographer Jacques-Nicolas Bellin and published in 1750. It depicts the course of the Red River, historically referred to as the Tonkin River, from Hanoi, labeled as Cacho, Ville Capitale du Tunquin, to the Gulf of Tonkin, labeled as Baye de Tunquin. Bellin’s work was based on navigational surveys by an English explorer, as stated in the title, reflecting the growing European interest in Southeast Asia during the early colonial period.
The Red River Delta was a crucial region for trade and agriculture, forming the backbone of Vietnam’s economic and cultural history. The river originates in China and flows through northern Vietnam, passing through Hanoi before emptying into the Gulf of Tonkin. This map captures the strategic importance of the river, as it served as a major trade route for goods and a point of interest for European navigators, merchants, and missionaries seeking access to Indochina.
The map includes numerous geographical details. Hanoi is prominently labeled as the capital of Tonkin, a historical term used by Europeans to describe northern Vietnam. The surrounding settlements, islands, and tributaries are carefully marked, illustrating the intricate network of waterways that characterized the region. Notable features include Île de la Potterie, referring to a location known for ceramic production, and various sandbanks and fortified locations along the river.
A decorative compass rose is placed in the upper left corner, reinforcing the map’s navigational purpose. The scale of measurement is provided in French leagues, labeled as Grandes Lieues...

Antique Map of Africa with a Decorative Dedication to the Dauphin, 1717
Located in Langweer, NL
Antique map titled 'L'Afrique, Dressée Selon les Dernieres Relat. et Suivant les Nouvelles Decouvertes (..).'
This map is a reduced derivative of De Fer's wall map of Africa (1696-98) with its characteristic thickened west coast. Unusual islands appear in the Atlantic and Indian Oceans including a mythical second island of St. Helena. Monomotapa is shown in the south and the southwest coastline is distorted and there is an incorrect placement and shape of the Cape of Good Hope. In Central Africa is a paragraph concerning the origin of the Nile in Abyssinia, however, the two sub-equatorial Ptolemaic lakes are still shown on the map. The map is graced with a decorative dedication to the Dauphin and a title cartouche featuring lime kilns. The map was first published in 1700.
