Carte de L'Amerique, corrigée et augmentée desus toutes les aultres cy deuant faictes par P.Bertius.

Rare map of America in a first state. The map itself is derived from the Jodocus Hondius map of 1618, however the southern coast of Tierra del Fuego now completed.
The engraver is not mentioned, however due to the fact that the Asia map bears the signature of Cornelis Danckerts (the elder), a highly skilled engraver, we may assume he also engraved this map. Sold separately at first, they did not appear in any atlas until Tavernier's Theatre Geographique du Royaume de France , first issued in 1632.
The second state has more place names along the east coast of North America.
Prepared by Petrus Bertius, who was related by marriage to both Jodocus Hondius Sr. and Pieter van den Keere. He studied at the University of Leiden. In 1620 he emigrated to France where he subsequently found employment as cosmographer to Louis XIII.
Bertius published a number of folio maps, although never actually an atlas of his own. The maps were either separately issued or included in atlases and books by other publishers.

Reference: Burden, North America, 218, first state.
