[1639] JANSSONIUS, Johannes
VIRGINIÆ / partis australis, / et FLORIDÆ partis / orientalis,
interjacentiumq regionum / NOVA DESCRIPTIO. [2b]
383 x 501 PM: 388 x 506 From Jansson 'Le Theatre Du Monde' Amsterdam,
1639 |
State
1: without imprint. This plate is a very close copy of the Blaeu plate,
even to the extent that the engraver copied the original mistake of engraving
'200' for '300' in the lower border, but then noticed the error and added
a lower tail to make the 2 into a 3. As there has always been some doubt
as to the priority of the engraving, this establishes the Blaeu plates
as the earlier. The principal means of differentiating between the two
plates is that the Janssonius plate has the latitude grid in the right
hand border shaded differently, so that the numerals are set beside shaded
units, while the Blaeu has the numerals beside unshaded units. Cumming,
Southeast, 42 (pl.26); Burden, North America, 254: state 1. |
