Description
Symbols of the four elements, for seasons with Ver or Spring showing gardeners tending a formal Dutch garden, Aestas or Summer is the time for sheep-shearing, Autumn brings the grape harvest in for wine pressing and in Hymens or Winter skaters revel on a frozen lake.

This edition with the date 1625 and the address of "M.Taverntier en Lisle du Palais A° 1625" was unknown to Shirley.
There are states known with the dates 1630 and 1638, who are according to Shirly included in the Théatre published in 1632 and 1634. The second state (now third state) was dated 1636 and is more commonly found and has a different address.
This is thus a separate publication. We were not able to trace another example with the date 1625.
The map is a close copy of the 1617 world map by Jodocus Hondius Jr. One of the most beautiful world maps ever engraved and one of the earliest maps to show the Dutch discoveries in Le Maire's Street.
This strait, and Cape Horn, were discovered in 1616 during the circumnavigation of Schouten and Le Maire. Subsequently Le Maire explored the north coast of New Guinea and this is shown on the right-hand hemisphere together with one of the new islands, Willem Schouten Eylant.
In the Pacific the islands called at by Le Maire are also marked.
In North America, the map is one of the first to delineate Hudson's Bay (after Gerritsz.), making special reference to Henry Hudson and the Dutch and English expeditions there up to 1612. The map extends the whole of the St. Lawrence river which runs across the continent, terminating in a large lake.
In spite of its restorations a very desirable item, which makes great presentation.
The below image does mark the repair areas.
Reference: Shirley, World 337
