Nieuwe caart der Eylanden van Banda (New Chart of the Banda Islands)

Francois Valentijn (1666–1727) was a minister, naturalist and writer who served the Dutch V.O.C. in the East Indies in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. His monumental work Oud en Nieuw Oost-Indien (Old and New East-India), published between 1724 and 1726, offers a comprehensive mapping of the East Indies with a large selection of scale maps and views. This chart of the Banda islands was published in that work. It illustrates the active volcano on Goenong Api (Gunung Api).
