A propos de cet article

Very good. Slight margin foxing and soiling. Size 26.5 x 39 Inches. This is a striking 1835 Heinrich Berghaus map of Java, the Sunda Strait, Bali, Lombok, South Borneo, and Celebes. The map illustrates the heart of the Dutch East Indies at the height of its colonial significance. It was issued for Berghaus' looseleaf Atlas von Asien , the best-informed general cartographic work on Asia to appear in the mid-19th century. A Closer Look Coverage embraces the wide and then little-known region surrounding the Java Sea but focuses most detail on Java, Bali, and Lombok. With land profiles, copious depth soundings, and nautical annotations, it serves well as both a nautical chart and a terrestrial map. The polities in Java, Bali, and Lombok are broken out between Dutch-controlled Java, administered from Batavia, and local Sultanates - particularly south-central Java, which defied Dutch colonial control until 1862. There are six insets, one detailing the VOC administrative center of Batavia (Jakarta), a cluster detailing the Gaspar, Assas, and Sapy Straits. A final large inset details the Sunda Strait, the most critical access point to the Java Sea and points north, making it an essential transit point for the Dutch East India trade. Of note, this inset map prominently includes the island of Krakatoa (Cracatoa), then home to hundreds of villages. Two-thirds of the island was obliterated in an 1883 volcanic eruption, one of the largest in recorded history. The Dutch East Indies In the 1830s, the Dutch East Indies comprised most of Java, Sumatra, and the Moluccas. The Dutch government, having dissolved the Dutch East India Company (VOC) by 1799, administered the colony directly with a focus on economic exploitation. Plantation agriculture, including cash crops such as sugar and coffee, was promoted, often with institutionalized forced labor. Infrastructure development, such as roads and ports, facilitated the transportation of goods. Indigenous resistance to Dutch control persisted, leading to local uprisings and conflicts throughout the 1830s, most of which ended with expanded Dutch control. Persistent resistance to Dutch exploitation persisted until the 1940s, when, after a prolonged struggle for independence, Indonesian sovereignty was recognized in 1949. Publication History and Census This map was published in 1835 by Heinrich Berghaus and Justus Perthes. It was engraved in Berlin by Wilhelm Jätting. The map is no. 17 of Berghaus' Atlas von Asien , all the individual maps of which are exceedingly desirable. We know of examples in the David Rumsey Collection, the Bibliothèque nationale de France, and numerous German collections, but there is little to no presence on the private market.
