This is a mounted map from two sea charts and twelve insets of cartographer, chart maker and cosmographer to the King of Portugal, João Teixeira Albernaz; and one sea chart and two insets by unknown author. This last sea chart depicts the Oceania region and the insets are of Batavia and Japan. The mounted map depicts the Indian Ocean across the eastern coast of Africa from the Cape of Good Hope; Arabian Peninsula; India; Malay Peninsula to Malacca; Madagascar -named 'Ilha de Saõ Lourenso"-; Sri Lanka -as 'Ceilaõ'-; Samatra; Java and Timor; Australia -written as 'Hollandia nova'- and New Zealand. There are also twelve insets with cities and fortresses of Oriental India, one of Batavia and the other of Japan. The three sea charts together with the insets of Mombasa, Mozambique, Sofala, Socotra, Bengal and Chittagong were published in the 'Relations de divers voyages curieux' by Melchisédec Thévenot. Only one sea chart of Teixeira is signed and dated but both are obviously drawn en série. The insets of Goa, Arakan, Ormuz, Mascate, Diu and Pegu are unsigned but are undoubtedly based on a 1649 manuscript chart by João Teixeira also at the Bibliothèque Nationale de France. The Batavia inset is made in an obvious different style -but just as the insets of Mascate and Diu- is in a bird's-eye view.
