Description
Nederlands: Titel catalogus Leupe (NA): Kaart van de Indische Zee, tusschen de Kaap de Goede Hoop, Java en Sumatra om de Noord, en Nieuw-Holland om de Oost.

De kaart heeft rechtsboven en rechtsonder rondingen.

Op deze kaart komt een bestek voor van de Kaap tot Java, en van daar tot op 19 graden noorderbreedte.

Tevens is een reisschema aangeduid, vertrek van de Kaap op 28 juni 1741 tot aankomst bij Java in augustus. Waarschijnlijk is dit reisschema later op de kaart bijgeschreven.
English: Title in the Leupe catalogue (NA): Kaart van de Indische Zee, tusschen de Kaap de Goede Hoop, Java en Sumatra om de Noord, en Nieuw-Holland om de Oost.

The map's corners are rounded top and bottom right.

The map covers the scope from the Cape to Java, and from there to 19 degrees north latitude.

Also featured is a travel itinerary, departing from the Cape on June 28, 1741 and arriving in Java in August. The itinerary was probably added to the chart later.
