This is the first state of De Wit's fine chart of Hudson Bay and Arctic Canada. This beautifully engraved chart was based Van Loon's important chart of 1666 and includes Hudson Bay and Strait, Baffins Bay and extends to include the western coast of Greenland. A sea battle rages outside of the Hudson Straits and another ship sails in Baffins Bay. The chart is richly embellished with rhumb lines and two elaborate cartouches; the second with the Dutch title.
