Handsome map displaying Seutter's strong style. The map is packed with detail - much of it fictitious. The Nile is shown not only originating in twin lakes, but also continuing further south nearly to the tip of the continent. A lake joins the Senegal and Niger Rivers. The large, cartouche is beautifully engraved and surrounded by natives and exotic animals including a large winged dragon. Engraved by Tobias Conrad Lotter.
