Kaart van de Genootschapseilanden 1795 - 1809

This anonymous map, created between 1795 and 1809, depicts the Society Islands in the South Pacific. The map, titled "Kaart van de Eilanden Otahiti," uses a grid system to illustrate the islands' location. It's a significant example of early cartographic techniques used to explore and document the world, and it's housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The map provides a glimpse into the history of European exploration and the early development of cartography.
