A beautifully coloured chart of the Limerick River and Galway Bay in Ireland, heightened with gold. There is a large inset of the port and castle of Kinsale, shown in detail because of its historic significance: it was both where Prince Rupert of the Rhine declared Charles II King after Charles I's execution, and where James II left for France after his defeat at the Battle of the Boyne by William of Orange. Koeman IV, M.Mor 1 A, chart 11.
Large double-page engraved map, lavishly hand-coloured by a contemporary hand, and heightened in gold, verso blank, rhumb lines intersecting in 2 compass roses, soundings and shoals delineated, 601 x 862mm (plate mark), 627 x 962mm (sheet).
