East Indies
Moluccas Islands
1748 Isles Loluques, by Georges-Louis Le Rouge; 12 x 9 inches, original outline colour.

Copper plate engraving on laid paper. From Le Rouge’s "Atlas nouveau portatif", page "82". Though the Moluccas are now firmly established, the map is less certain about the contours of New Guinea: previous shorelines are now dotted lines.

Usual central fold, good to fine. Photo
