"De Straat van Magellaen Sedert Desselfs Eerste Ondekker, F. Magellaen...", Aa, Pieter van der

This lovely little map covers the continent's southern tip showing the Straits of Magellan and Le Maire. The interior of Tierra del Fuego is largely featureless except for a vignette of a native village. The map was created to show the explorations of Spaniard Alonso de Ojeda, as well as those who traveled the strait after its discovery by Ferdinand Magellan. The pictorial title cartouche includes a native and a sailor using navigational instruments.
