Nova totius terrarum orbis geographica ac hydrographica tabula

The map is based on Hondius' World map of 1617. The map was the first to show Le Maire's Straits and the islands in the Pacific discovered by Le Maire and his explorations in New Guines. Hondius' map was also one of the earliest to show Hudson's Bay and the full course of th St. Lawrence in a curious configuration.
