A 1668 Dutch geographical description of Africa, compiled by Olfert Dapper from earlier travel accounts and published in Amsterdam by Jacob van Meurs for a Dutch readership. Its four copperplate views show coastal towns and harbours seen from the sea, with fortifications, hills and sailing ships rendered in fine parallel hatching, giving a designer a clear model for topographic seascapes and engraved maritime detail.
