A large and detailed sea chart of the seas to the north and west of Scotland, with the Orkneys, Shetlands, Faroes and northern Ireland.
The chart was first published by Pierre Mortier in Amsterdam in 1693, in the famous 'Neptune Francois". The plates later came into the hands of Bellin in his role as head of the French 'Depot de la Marine'. The chart has been coloured with a lovely blue/green wash around the coastlines
