A vividly illustrated French table globe from the mid-eighteenth century rich in geographical detail that includes the voyages and discoveries of French English Dutch and Russian explorers. Created during the reign of Louis XV by the partnership of Desnos and Nolin two great mapmakers of the period it is a tremendously evocative artefact from the Age of Enlightenment. The globe shows the discoveries made in the Pacific by the early European expeditions prior to those of Cook and the grands voyages of La Perouse Baudin Freycinet and Duperrey. It depicts the newly charted territory of Nouvelle Hollande as it was known from the most recent discoveries: the western coastline as well as the partial coastlines of Van Diemen's Land and New Zealand are based on the discoveries of the Dutch. Also marked are Dampier's Passage separating New Guinea from New Britain and Terre de S. Esprit Australia del Espíritu Santo the island in the New Hebrides originally mistaken by Quiros for the Australian continent. Louis-Charles Desnos 1725-1805 was one of the most prolific and influential map and globe makers of his age at a time when Paris was the major centre for map production in Europe. He married the widow of Nicolas Hardy the son of Jacques Hardy a globe maker active in the years 1738-1745. Desnos acquired Hardy's inventory and tools and expanded the company further through the acquisition of the inventories of the Jaillot family and of Nicolas de Fer. Desnos would be appointed Royal Globemaker to King Christian VII of Denmark and continued publishing throughout the late eighteenth century. Jean-Baptiste Nolin 1686-1762 continued the established business of his father the famous French cartographer engraver publisher and map dealer Jean-Baptiste Nolin 1657-1708. Collections: The only globe by Desnos recorded in Australian public collections is in the National Gallery of Victoria acquired from us in 2023.

1766101196<p>Engraved map slight outline coloring decorative rococo boarder with landscape style cartouche 12" x 10.7". Decent margins but bottom margin a little narrow minor aging light pencil notation in right margin; overall in excellent condition with a very strong impression. While the interior of the map doesn't show a substantial amount of geographical detail this appears typical of the period. There are some large rivers and lakes that are identified. The Nile appears to rise from two small lakes in the Mts de la Lune above the Equator. In the south there aren't a lot of places named but there are still some tribal names present.</p>
