From the sixth volume of Vander Maelen’s ‘Atlas Universel de Geographie Physique, Statistique et Mineralogique’. The atlas was the first published in lithograph and formed a Sanson-Flamsteed projected globe of 7.75 metres in diameter. This was constructed in the Etablissement Geographique in Brussels. A total of 400 maps were produced covering the world on the same scale throughout. This map is of the islands of Fiji in the Pacific Ocean. Koeman III Vdm 1 pt. 6 no. 40.
