The map, a facsimile, shows the world on two hemispheres. The general aspect is accurate except for Northwest America and Northeast Asia. Australia and Antarctica are only suggested and called "Terra Australis Incognita". In America, California is still referred to as an island. This map was possibly published in Atlas Contractus Orbis Terrarum...issued by the Visschers between 1656 and 1677. Two other maps with the same title were published by Visscher. ONe is dated 1652, the other is undated.
