Terrestrial globe
Both Blaeus, father and son, were world famous cartographers. The globes that they made were real showpieces. Naturally, they included the latest discoveries of distant lands, and colonies such as ‘Nieu Nederland’ (New York). Yet there were still unexplored territories in the world. Only a small section of the Australian coast had been charted – by Dutchmen, as the name ‘Hollandia Nova’ indicates.
