This is an anonymous atlas under the assigned title 'Atlas nautique du monde'. It is attributed to João Albernaz Teixeira and dated around 1628 by Armando Cortesão after analyzing all the charts and comparing it with other works by the same author. The original atlas has two ex libris, one of Jean-Charles de Mesgrigny and the other of the Duchesse de Berry. This is a chart of the East Indies and depicts all of Insulindia, Malacca, the coast line of Vietnam and of South China. The Islands of Sri Lanka, Sumatra, Borneo, Philippines, Java, Hainan and Taiwan, still divided into three separate islands.
