One of the earliest printed detailed charts of Java Large folding engraved map on two sheets joined. The important VOC controlled island of Java, with extensive explanatory text in panels on either side and in banners along the top edge, an inset of Le Port de Batavia appears lower left. The Chatelains based their maps on the work of contemporary and earlier cartographers and travel writers, and the current map is based on Hadriaan Reland's map, which was not published by the Dutch until Johannes van Keulen, issued it as 'Insulae Iavae pars Occidentalis edente Hadriano Relando' in 1728. VOC knowledge of the southern coastline of Java was only extended much later in 1739, when Paulus Paulusz, master-kaartenmaker in Batavia at the time, led an expedition there.
