Descriptive Notes:

"One of four charts of the coast of Africa, that first appeared in Wit's Zee Atlas of 1675. Both Ottens and Renard appear to have adapted some of the plates for their own use." Cartouche includes several animals, a tiger, snake, lion, ostrich, and a cow. A group of figures stand on top of the title. Two compass roses radiate rhumb lines.
