Engraved in a birds-eye format this map explores the Salomon Islands which were a contemporary source of mystery. Here they are depicted with a spurious connection to the southern continent and that of New Zealand. The region between New Zealand and the Salomons is here called ‘Terre de Qvir’. The map is decorated with sailing ships, and a banner holds the title. Pastoureau (1984) pp. 309-11, Mallet IA no. 653; Phillips (1909-) 3447; Sabin (1868-1936) 44130; Shirley (2004) T.Man-1a; Suarez (2004) p. 98.
