Map of the south coast of Africa and Sumatra

Graaff, Isaac de

Title in the Leupe catalogue (NA): Kaart van de Indische Zee, tusschen de Kaap de Goede Hoop, Java en Sumatra om de Noord, en Nieuw-Holland om de Oost.

The map's corners are rounded top and bottom right.

The map covers the scope from the Cape to Java, and from there to 19 degrees north latitude.

Also featured is a travel itinerary, departing from the Cape on June 28, 1741 and arriving in Java in August. The itinerary was probably added to the chart later.
