Handsome small map of the island of Ceylon (Sri Lanka) with north oriented to the left. The map is fully engraved to show the mountains, forests and kingdoms and a few simple roads. This map was engraved by Petrus Kaerius for Jansson's edition of the Atlas Minor. Although this plate was first used in 1628, by 1630 a crack had formed in the right border and the top right corner had broken off, both visible in this example. This plate was replaced in 1648 with a newly engraved plate. French text on verso.
