166710027Paris 1667. No Binding. Near Fine. 12 ½ x 17 inches. Original outline color; excellent. Earliest map of Martinique listed in Phillips featuring attractive original color and an elegant cartouche. This map depicts the situation on the island before 1660 when it was still largely inhabited by natives and only about half of it had been claimed by colonists for sugar cane farming. The map goes so far as to mark with a printed line the partition dividing the "demeure des François" and the "demeure des savages." However by 1660 the entirety of the native population was either dead expelled or in slavery and Martinique was a full-fledged sugar cane-farming European colony. Phillips Maps P. 389. unknown books
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 The map of North America that appeared in the atlas although masterful was now considered to be geographically outdated.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. The present copy is an example of Burden's first state of the map; a second state would be issued in 1690.<br/> <br/>Burden The Mapping of North America I 404; first state McCorkle New England in Early Printed Maps 669.4; McLaughlin California as an Island 45; Wagner Cartography of the Northwest Coast of America 399; Tooley "California as an Island" 8 in TooleyThe Mapping of America.
