Five views of the coast of New Ireland in New Guinea. Abel Tasman, but also Willem Schouten and Isaac le Maire, thought that this was the coast of New Guinea. In reality it was the island now known as New Ireland. François Valentijn (1666-1727), a missionary, worked at Amboina from 1684 to 1694 and 1705 to 1713 and travelled extensively in the VOC's lands. He is best known for his monumental history and description, ''Oud en Nieuw Oost-Indiën'' which remains one of the most important primary sources for the East Indies and neighbouring lands.
