This is a simplified and smaller version of Jodocus Hondius' map of Brazil from 1630, with north oriented to the right. Detail is confined to the coasts with numerous place names, while a strapwork cartouche fills the interior. Engraved by Petrus Kaerius (Pieter van den Keere). This map is quite uncommon as it was only published in the German text editions of the Atlas Minor between 1648-51.
