"Nova Hispania et Nova Galicia". Copper etching by Wilhelm Blaeu in recent coloring. Published in 1662.

The fantastic cartouche surmounted by the Spanish royal arms is the artistic highlight of this map.Historically, this map is of great interest. The geographical knowledge of towns and cities at that time, in this part of Central Mexico is impressive. Mexico City is shown as a small group of red buildings on the Lake Texcoco that still had water. To the right of the cartouche in the middle is Lake Chapala surrounded by smaller Lakes. The lake in the northwest full of islands does not exist as such today. It is the region near San Blas in the State of Nayarit. To the south is a city symbol for Guadalajara. The coast in the south begins slightly north of Acapulco. Zihautanejo and Ixtapa are shown. A windrose and two sailing ships in the Pacific add a maritime decoration to this map.
