The map illustrates the track of the Manila Galleon trade from the Mole of Cabite till she getts clear of the Land (from Manilla, the galleons passed above Mindoro, below Marinduqueand Burias, above Tiaco and past Capul and San Bernardino Islands, before making the open waters north of Samal. The map includes a decorative compass rose and rhumb lines. Narrow margins, as issued, but sufficient for framing. A nice example of the map, which rarely appears on the market in such nice condition.

La baye de Isle et Cite de Borneo . . .

The map, engraved by master engraver Baptista Van Deutecum, shows a detailed view of Van Noort's ship in the large bay of Brunei. Van Noort relied upon Chinese pilots which he had employed to serve as ambassadors to the Sultan, who had to be persuaded that the Dutch were not the hated Spanish. The map depicts local boats clustered around Van Noort's vessel, which is a reference to the roughly 100 native proas which surrounded the ship when it attempted to set anchor on January 1, 1601. Van Noort's account of the Island follows after Pigafetta's account, and is one of the earliest European accounts of this important island in the region.
