About the Item
Plan de la Ville et du Chateau de Batavia en l'Isle de Iava / Ware affbeeldinge wegens het Casteel ende Stadt Batavia gelegen opt groot Eylant Java.
Behold the exquisite antique map, a masterwork by Pieter van der Aa, showcasing a Detailed East-oriented plan of Jakarta, once known as Batavia, situated on the island of Java, Indonesia. Crafted with precision and artistry, this map offers a mesmerizing bird's eye view from the seaside, capturing the bustling port with various ships dotting the harbor and a regal lion gracing the scene. In an inset you can see the Salak mountains at the background.
Van der Aa, a prodigious cartographer and publisher born in Leyden, Holland, infused his maps with intricate details and ornate embellishments. This particular map stands as a testament to his skill and artistic flair. Notably, two inset keys accompany the map, providing detailed descriptions of the buildings, offering a glimpse into the architectural landscape of historic Batavia.
Van der Aa's legacy spans a prolific fifty-year career, during which he crafted a multitude of highly decorative maps and atlases. His Nouvel Atlas, esteemed for its beauty and accuracy, was reissued by Covens & Mortier, attesting to the enduring significance of his cartographic works. Van der Aa's legacy lives on through the intricate beauty and historical value encapsulated within this stunning depiction of Jakarta's former glory.
