"Paskaart van de Witte Zee Beginnende van Pelitza tot Kandalox en van Catsnoes tot aan Kovoda Naaukeurig Opgestelt en van Veel Souten Verbetert", Keulen, Johannes van

An interesting sea chart of the White Sea, including the Kandalsksha Gulf, Onega Bay, Dvina Bay and Arkangelsk, with the Solovetsky Islands shown much too small. The map is graced with two superb cartouches; the title cartouche shows reindeer being ridden in a pastoral scene, the scale of miles features the trumpeting Angel of Fame, as well as a number of putti, several of which are supporting the globe on their shoulders like Atlas.
