Americae sive quartae orbis partis nova et exactissima descriptio
|
In 1562 Diego Gutiérrez, a Spanish cartographer from the respected Casa de la Contratación, and Hieronymus Cock, a noted engraver from Antwerp, collaborated in the preparation of a spectacular and ornate map of what was then referred to as the fourth part of the world, America. It was the largest engraved map of America to that time. The map depicts the eastern coast of North America, all of Central and South America, and portions of the western coasts of Europe and Africa. Six engraved
sheets are neatly joined to form a single map. It is apparent that one of the intentions in preparing the map was to define clearly Spain's America for the other European powers who might have designs on the region. Includes texts in cartouche, statements of dedication, coats-of-arms, an illustration of the allegorical figure "Victoria", and illustrations of sailing ships at sea and imaginary marine creatures.

Americae Sive Qvartae Orbis Partis Nova Et Exactissima Descripto/ Avctore Diego Gvtiero Philippi Regis Hisp./ Etc. Cosmographo Hiero Cock. Excvde. 1562 (North and South America)
|
Diego Gutierrez was a cosmographer at the Casa de la Contratacion in Seville, and as such he had access to the majority of Spanish charts. In 1562 Hieronymus Cock of
Antwerp drew on these to produce this the first large scale engraved map of the New World. The source of the cartography south of the Amazon River is, however,
unknown; Caraci speculates that there appears to be an unidentified Italian influence. Produced on six sheets, it records the expanding Spanish exploration,
particularly southwards along the west coast of South America.
The map reflects the death of Gutierrez in 1554 in that more recent explorations are not recorded, particularly those in the southeast of North America by de Soto and
others. It credits Amerigo Vespucci with the discovery of the in 1497, a frequent error of the time. Here we find the first appearance of the name California, C
California; however, we do not see any of the west coast north of the peninsula. Another introduction here is the use of Mar Pagaero (Alvarez de Pineda?s Bay) for
the bay formed at the mouth of the Rio del Espirito Santo, possibly the Mississippi River. The map is decorated with numerous creatures in the sea, and a shipwreck off
the east coast of North America. This probably reflects the Carolina Banks, it is detailed with a life raft and crew jumping overboard. There are only two recorded
complete examples surviving; these reside at the British Library and the Library of Congress.
