Old map of Argentina, Chile.

Indische Compagnie (United East Indian Company), a position he held until his death in 1638. This 1640 map reflects Blaeu's specialization in maritime cartography. The lower left corner depicts a group of seven sailing ships, positioned over a cartouche in which the scale is given in German miles. The cartouche is supported by a group of three Patagonians. The names of the Atlantic, Pacific, and southern oceans are indicated in the other corners of the map. The map is dedicated to Constantijn Huygens, a Dutch poet and diplomat who, with his more famous brother Christiaan (the discoverer of Saturn's moon Titan), also built telescopes and studied the skies.

Created by Willem Janszoon Blaeu in 1640.
