Carte de l‘Islande

YEAR 1779

This map appeared in Histoire générale des voyages, vol. XXIV, Amsterdam 1779. Engraved by A.V. Krevelt, Amsterdam, copying the Bellin map (1768). The most easily visible differences are some changes to the title cartouche and Mer du Nord is now in different typeset. Upon closer inspection, one can see that the map has been re-engraved.
