At greatest transit (01:30 UT) the image point of the Sun and of Venus (subsolar point) is located at 22.7° N (=declination of the Sun and Venus) and 157.2° E (=360° - Greenwich hour angle of the Sun and Venus) in the Pacific Ocean: there the greatest transit happens in the zenith of the observer:

Venus is moving across the Sun's disk like this:

The geocentric end of the transit is at 4:49 UT. The borderline separating the sunlit and darkened hemispheres runs from central Africa to Spain, to east of Ireland, and Greenland, which is in agreement with the prediction Proctor's book plate IX, published in 1882.
