1702 Scherer Map of the Philippine Islands (Philippines) and Guam https://www.geographicus.com/P/AntiqueMap/philippineislands-scherer-1703 A stunning 1703 map of the Philippines, South China Sea, western Pacific, and Guam by Heinrich Scherer. Essentially two maps on a single sheet, the primary map, appearing at right, covers from Korea to New Guinea and from Borneo to the Marinara Islands, including China, southern Japan, the Philippines, the Marinara Islands, and parts of Indonesia and New Guinea. The left had map is a detailed study of Guam - which has recently converted to Christianity. It bears a Jesuit themed title cartouche and exhibits several ships (Magellan?) and various sea creatures in the Pacific. #geographicus #geographicusmaps #raremap #raremaps #antiquemaps #antiquemap #LI @geographicusmaps #guam #philippines #phimcos @imcossymposiummanila #philippinesmap (at Geographicus Rare Antique Maps) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrT80O2AlX1/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ita5yv7097of
