Facsimile of chart from Nicholas Vallard's manuscript sea atlas (1547), showing Jave La Grande's west coast. The facsimile was given the title "The first Map of Australia from Nicholas Vallard's Atlas, 1547" by the English publisher in 1856. The original Vallard chart was produced in Dieppe, France in the 16th century. It is thought by several writers to represent Portuguese charting of the western coast of Australia, however the geographical features (i.e. 'cap' cape, 'Illa' Island, 'illet' islet, 'port' harbour) are actually written in Catalan. This copy is held by the National Library of Australia. [cartographic material] : from the Library of Sir Thomas Phillipps, Bart. at Middle Hill, 1856.
