Description
Central Chile, orientated with north to the left, from Copiapo south to the Isla de Chiloé and the City of Castro.
With such a long, thin country, the empty spaces on the map have been filled with large cartouches for the title, scale and publication inscription and pairs of galleons, sea monsters and compass roses.
