This 1799 hand-drawn map by an anonymous artist is titled *Kaart van Resolution Bay en omliggende eilanden in Nieuw-Zeeland.* The map, which measures 215 mm by 391 mm, depicts a detailed rendering of Resolution Bay and its surrounding islands in New Zealand, using an intricate line style to illustrate the coastline and islands. The map also includes a scale, compass rose and place names in Dutch, which points towards the cartographic style of the time. This piece offers insight into early cartographic representations of the region.
