An attractive map of Languedoc in the south of France centred on the Isle de Re and Oleron depicting the west coast of France showing La Rochelle. Several vessels and sailing ships dot the Atlantic ocean. With three wind-roses indicating north to the left the map is embellished with a sea goddess and monsters. This example is from a Dutch edition of Joan Blaeu's 'Novus Atlas'. Van der Krogt, P. (Atlantes) 4515:2.
