Kaart van een deel van de kust van Nieuw-Zuid-Wales te Australië 1798

This 1798 map by Cornelis van Baarsel depicts a portion of the coast of New South Wales, Australia. The map, titled "Kaart van een deel van de kust van Nieuw-Zuid-Wales," is a detailed cartographic representation of the region, focusing on the coastline and various inlets. The map was created to illustrate the area explored by the famous explorer, James Cook, during his voyages. The Dutch language of the title and the inclusion of geographical features named in Dutch indicate a strong European, likely Dutch, influence on the understanding and mapping of the region.
