Large striking map depicting Brazil from the Amazon delta to Sao Paolo and inland to the Rio de la Plata olim Paraguay. The Amazon delta contains many small islands and a confusion of waterways. The coastline is well mapped with the location of many place names; the interior, however, is largely unexplored. The bold figural title cartouche features the scenery, natives and agricultural bounty of the region.

Spectacular example with no flaws in the image: beautiful original color and very early, dark impression. In the left margin are a few light stains and an old paper cut about half way up that is closed on verso with old paper repair.
