This latest part of the Koeman's Atlantes Neerlandici series contains the description of one single "atlas" only: the Galerie agreable du monde, published by Pieter van der Aa in Leiden in 1728. The work is described page-by-page in the form of a catalogue. Every description is accompanied by a small photo. Large-format digital photographs of all the sheets - both textual and graphic - have been placed on the accompanying DVD, so that this volume is in effect a digital facsimile of the Galerie agreable. In two volumes.
