Willem Barentsz.'s Beschrijvinghe ende Caertboeck van de
Midlandtsche Zee, Amsterdam, 1595. His "New description
and chartbook of the Mediterranean" is one of the eldest
examples of Dutch atlas related to the navigation in the Mediterranean.
The pictures were obtained from the original at the Algemene
Rijksarchief (ARA., section VEL F) in The Hague (The Netherlands)
and they are part of my current research about the Origins
of the Dutch presence in the Mediterranean 1570s-1621, of
which I hope to include soon new material. |
