SouthAfrica-dudley-1647 $6,500.00 Title Carta particolare che comincia con il capo Degortam e con il capo Buona Speranza e finisce in gradi 27 di latitudine Australe.   1647 (undated)         1 : 2130000 Description This is a superb example of Robert Dudley s 1647 coastal chart of South Africa. It was included in Dudley s Arcano del Mare, hailed by Tooley as the first sea atlas in which every chart was based on Mercator’s projection, the first to show prevailing winds and currents in the main harbours and anchorages, the first to give magnetic declination, and the first sea atlas by an Englishman.At least in principle, these navigational notes and the adherence to the Mercator projection would make Dudley s charts the first to be of any use at sea. The present chart exhibits all of these qualities.
