The title translation: ‘Africa according to the latest voyages and observations’. In the lower left corner is a large decorative cartouche engraved by Gottfried Rogg, with natives, pyramids, animals, lighthouses and ships. Geographical discrepancy can be found in the representation of the Nile. It is shown not only originating from the southern lakes of Zaire and Zaflan but also continues further south. The lakes represented in Central Africa are particularly enlarged. A number of the southern extremities of the continent are also fictitious. The Abyssinian province of Amhara, for example, is shown in the kingdom of Monomotapa. [AFR5219]
