”Care de Isle de Caienne, et de ses environs. Par le Sr. Bellin Ingr. de la Marine de la Société Royale de Londres”

Detailed and well engraved sea chart of French Guiana and the island of Cayenne, originally published in Paris by Bellin and copied here by Schley. 

Jakob van der Schley was a skilled draftsman and engraver who operated out of Amsterdam and had strong ties with the Hague. He was trained by Bernard Picart and his style resembles that of the elder man. Van der Schely was known for intricately engraved portraits and frontispieces. He signed most of the plates used in the Hague edition of the Abbe Prevost's Histoire generale des voyages.
