166925695Paris: Chez Pierre Mariette 1669. Copper-engraved map period hand colouring in outline. The most important French map of North America of its generation produced by the country's most esteemed family of cartographers.<br/> <br/>This very influential map was the official successor to Nicolas Sanson's 1650 map of North America. When Nicolas Sanson regarded as the father of the renaissance of cartography under Louis XIV died in July 1667 he left his flourishing business in the care of his eldest son Guillaume. The younger Sanson continued his father's partnership with the Mariette family who were prominent Parisian printers. Guillame was determined to publish a new updated edition of his father's Cartes Generales de toutes parties du Monde the first French general atlas originally published in 1657. The map of North America that appeared in the atlas although masterful was now considered to be geographically outdated. The present map which appeared in the second edition of the atlas featured updated toponymy and is geographically based on Nicolas Sanson's wall map of 1666 of which only two copies survive. While California is shown to be an island in line with popular perception unlike the map from 1650 it no longer attempts to build a geographical mythology in the place of the Pacific Northwest which was then totally unknown. Appropriately the magnificent baroque title cartouche which features swags and ribbons held aloft by putti has been placed to fill this enigmatic space. Cartographically the map appears to be based on Sanson's maps of "Le Canada ou Nouvelle France" and "Le Nouveau Mexique et La Floride." Lake Erie is shown in a recognizable form and the entire Great Lakes network is shown in greater detail than his father's map although the western lakes are still open-ended. On the East coast Long Island is shown and the shape of the Outer Banks is improved. Several Indian tribes are identified in New Mexico where the R. del Norte Rio Grande mistakenly flows from an interior lake and empties into the Mar Vermeio ou Mer Rouge Gulf of California. Iceland now appears in the Atlantic as well as a bit of Britain. The map proved to be highly successful and was sourced on numerous occasions by other mapmakers.

165124777Paris: N. Sanson & P. Mariette 1651. Copper-engraved map with original outline colour. The rare second state of this highly important map of North America by the founder of the French School of cartography.<br/> <br/>This very rare map is the most geographically progressive portrayal of the continent made at its time and was not superseded until Vincenzo Maria Coronelli's map of 1688. Importantly it is the first map to depict the Great Lakes in a recognizable form and the first to name Lake Ontario and Lake Superior. In his rendering of the region Sanson benefited from having received a copy of The Jesuit Relations published in Paris in 1649 a detailed account by French missionaries who had traveled in the region. Most notably this included Father Paul Ragueneau's account of his visit to Niagara Falls and Jean Nicollet's discovery of Lake Michigan "Lac des Puans" in 1634. Down the St. Lawrence River from the lakes Montréal is named the settlement having been founded by the Sieur de Maisonneuve in 1642. Elsewhere to the north a mysterious strait weaves over "New South Wales" on Hudson's Bay terminating in the interior of the continent a blank space labeled as "Mer Glaciale". This alludes to the existence of a much hoped-for Northwest Passage. On the eastern seaboard the map notes "Nouvelle Amsterdam" in the place of present day New York and is the first printed map to label "Nouvelle Suede" referring to the Swedish colony centered on Fort Christina founded on the site of present-day Wilmington Delaware in 1638. To the far southwest Sanson based his depiction on the Father Alonso Benavides Memorial a travel account of New Mexico published in Madrid in 1630. It is the first printed map to label "Santa Fe" which is incorrectly shown to be on the banks of the Rio Grande and the domains of various native tribes such as the "Apache" "Navajo" and the "Taosij" Taos. To the west California is shown as a large island and features some of the same nomenclature as found on Johannes de Laet's map of 1630. A striking aspect of the map is the sinusoidal projection employed by Sanson that essentially places the globe on an elliptical graticule creating a very pleasing aesthetic. The composition is finished by an extremely elegant Baroque title cartouche featuring swags of fruit and vegetation. Nicholas Sanson was born in the town of Abbeville in Picardy. Something of a child prodigy by the age of eighteen he could already be found in Paris drafting his own maps. There he quickly rose to become Royal Geographer to Louis XIII in 1630. He maintained the position upon the ascension of the "Sun King" Louis XIV in 1643 and later served as tutor to the ambitious young monarch. In 1644 he formed a lucrative partnership with Paris publisher Pierre Mariette with the objective of producing a great atlas that could rival those of the Amsterdam houses such as Blaeu and Jansson. The present map was devised as one of the most important maps in the atlas. The first state of the map was printed in 1650 and the present second state appeared a year later. The atlas itself entitled Les Cartes Générales de toutes les parties du Monde was not finally assembled until 1658. It was however a landmark moment in the history of French cartography being the first folio atlas produced in that country. The extremely high quality of Sanson's work motivated other French mapmakers to improve the standard of their production. Sanson also greatly influenced Louis XIV's chief minister Jean-Baptisite Colbert to heavily fund cartographic projects. This gave rise to a great French School of cartography that was to eventually wrest dominance of the mapmaking market from the Dutch by the 1680s. After Sanson's death in 1667 his work was continued by his sons Guillaume d.1703 and Adrian d.1708. The first state of this map is extremely rare with Burden citing but two copies in private American collections. This second state is also quite rare and can be recognized by addition of a coastline north west of California but with Lake Ontario unshaded and with the appearance of a river system. "With his 1650 Map of North America Sanson had introduced a great deal of information concerning the nomenclature of American Indians with words such as Apache and Navajo appearing on printed maps for the first time. He was also the first cartographer to show Santa Fe as the capital of New Mexico . an extraordinary document of the cultural and geographical resources known in the centers of learning in Europe" Martin & Martin.<br/> <br/>Burden The Mapping of North America I 294 state 3; Leighly California as an Island p.33 pl.7; McLaughlin The Mapping of California as an Island 12; Pastoreau Les Atlas Français XVIe-XVIIe Siècles p.387-9; Wagner The Cartography of the Northwest Coast of America to the Year 1800 360 pp.130-2; Wheat Mapping of the Transmississippi West I p.39; cf.

1650309461Paris: Pierre Mariette 1650. unbound. Abraham Peyrounin. Map. Engraving with original outline color. Image measures 15 3/4" x 21 3/4"<br/> <br/> This exceptionally fine map of South America covers the continent in fine detail. Coastlines are extensively labeled and mountains beautifully rendered in profile. The Orinoco and Amazon Rivers as well as Rio de la Plata are prominently rendered. Sanson refrains from drawing a southern coastline to Tierra del Fuego and the relatively unknown Amazon region is depicted in minimal detail. Sanson does however include the mythical lake "Lac de Parime" and the city of gold "Manoa del Dora" between the Orinoco and Amazon rivers. Nice dark impression. In very good condition. Minor dampstain to lower margin not affecting the image and some faint stains near the center of the map - otherwise clean and bright. Hard to find. <Br> <br> Nicolas Sanson 1600-1667 is considered the founder of the French school of cartography. In reaction to the prevailing trend of Dutch lavishness Sanson favored minimal details focusing rather on accurate cartography than ornament.<br/> <br/> Pierre Mariette unknown
