Description
Nederlands: Kaart van Straat Le Maire en Straat Magelhaen.

Titel Catalogus Leupe (NA): Tabula Magellanica qua sierrae de Fuego, cum Celeberrimis fretes a F. Magellano et J. Le Maire detectis etc.

Tabula / Magellanica, / qua Tierrae del Fuego, / Cum / celeberrimis fretis a F. Magellano / et I. Le Maire detectis / Novißima et accuratißima descriptio exhibetur.

Legenda a-l; R-V.In 1615-1617 ontdekten Jacob le Maire (1585-1616) en Willem Cornelisz. Schouten (ca. 1567-1625) ten zuiden de Straat van Magellanes een nieuwe zeeweg tussen de Atlantische en Grote Oceaan: de Straat Le Maire. Via deze nieuwe zeevaartweg kwam een alternatieve route voor de vaart op Indië beschikbaar, waarbij het monopolie van de Verenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie op het bezeilen van de Straat van Magellanes kon worden omzeild. Hierbij ontdekten ze de Straat Le Maire en Kaap Hoorn, die ze noemden naar de woonplaats van Schouten. Ondanks hun ontdekkingen was hun reis niet erg succesvol: eenmaal in Batavia werden ze niet geloofd en het overgebleven schip, de Eendracht, werd met lading in beslag genomen.

Key a-l; R-V. In 1615-1617 Jacob le Maire (1585-1616) and Willem Cornelisz. Schouten (ca.1567-1625) discovered a new sea passage between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans south of the Magelhaen Strait: the Le Maire Strait. This new sea passage opened up an alternative route to sail to the Indies, enabling vessels to circumvent the Dutch East India Company's monopoly on sailing through the Magellan Strait. They also discovered the Le Maire Strait and Cape Horn, which they named after Schouten's home town. Despite their discoveries, their journey did not prove successful. On arrival in Batavia they were not believed and their remaining ship, the Eendracht, was confiscated along with its cargo.
