 Old Maps and of California as an Island, Grace Galleries Harpswell Maine
On the Eastern Hemisphere map only the western coast of Australia is drawn in though the eastern coast had been discovered and surveyed by Capt. James Cook on his first voyage to the Pacific in 1768-1771.
Although land contours on both hemispheres are drawn in, the charm of the map lies in its inaccuracies and the lack of universal knowledge still apparent in mapmaking in some European centers in the 18th century.
The five inset charts on this sheet reveal how little was known of the coast of California in the 17th and early 18th centuries, from the time when California was believed to be an island in Sanson's map of 1656, to the surveys of the Jesuits in 1705-1767, which finally disproved the island theory.
