Planisphaerium Terrestre, Sive Terrarum Orbis – America by Carel Allard is a richly decorated 17th-century map featuring the Americas within a double-hemisphere world view, originally published around 1696. The Americas are prominently depicted in the western hemisphere, showing coastlines, mountain ranges, and major rivers with a mix of observed geography and speculative features—such as the lingering depiction of California as an island. The map is hand-colored and engraved, surrounded by intricate baroque embellishments including allegorical figures, cherubs, sea creatures, and celestial motifs. It reflects both the curiosity and imperial ambitions of the time, capturing the New World through a European lens.

Carel Allard (1648–1709) was a key figure in Dutch Golden Age cartography, based in Amsterdam and part of a notable family of mapmakers. He specialized in highly decorative and commercially appealing maps, combining up-to-date geographic information with elaborate visual storytelling. Allard’s maps were both scientific tools and status symbols, used by scholars, merchants, and aristocrats. His depiction of America within the Planisphaerium Terrestre exemplifies his artistic flair and the evolving understanding of global geography during a period of exploration and colonial expansion.
