Public domain art from The Rijksmuseum, digitally enhanced.

This is a rare, newly-identified first state of Carel Allard's circa 1696 map of Africa: full title 'Novissima el Perfectissima Africane Descripio'.

The map became the standard for subsequent maps of Africa, originally based upon the work of Frederick De Wit (1629-1706). There are a number of notable deep inlets on the southeast coast. The large lakes and numerous rivers are also of note. The origin of the Nile is based upon Ptolemy. The kingdom of Monomotapa comes down a far as the Rio de Infante. There are few names in the interior of the Cape of Good Hope. Decorative title cartouche and a number of animal vignettes within the map.
