Published in 1648 the map dates to the period of the Old Swiss Confederacy. Furthermore it predates by only a few years the Swiss Peasant War of 1653 a siege of Lucerne and Bern that demonstrated the significance of the rural population to the confederacy's stability. Hand-colored outlines on the map indicate the various independent states that made up the confederacy. A title cartouche with elaborate scrollwork adorns the lower right corner of the map.

171037419Paris: Hubert Jaillot 1710. In ausgezeichnetem Zustand. 803 by 560mm 31½ by 22 inches. Kupferstichkarte in zeitgenössischem Grenzkolorit. Mit großer prächtiger allegorischer Kartusche sowie Meilenzeiger mit Legende. Erschienen im großen AtlasAtlas Nouveau contenant.Â’ von Nicolaus Sanson u. Hubert Jaillot. Dargestellt wird der schwäbische Kreis im Norden mit dem benachbarten Franken u. im Süden bis zum Bodensee. Im Osten noch mit Teilen von Bayern der Westen mit dem angrenzenden Frankreich. Das Kartenbild sorgfältig u. übersichtlich ausgearbeitet. Der Atlas Nouveau.Â’ entstand als Auftragsarbeitet für Ludwig XIV. und nahm einen Zeitraum von über 10 Jahren in Anspruch. Die Karten gelten bis heute noch als eine Meisterleistung der französischen Kartographie des 17.Jahrhunderts. Als Geburtsjahr Jaillots wird das Jahr 1632 angenommen da in seiner Sterbeurkunde sein Alter mit 80 Jahren angegeben war. Der Geburtsort war Avignon-lès-Saint-Claude damals ein kleiner Weiler in der Exklave der Freigrafschaft Burgund die dazu gehörte Spanisches Königreich. Jaillot hatte seit seiner Kindheit ein großes Talent für Kunst und Design. Bildhauerei lernte er bei seinem Bruder Pierre-Simón. Als Folge der französisch-spanischen Konflikte wurde ihre Heimatstadt verwüstet und so gingen die beiden Brüder 1657 nach Paris. Dort erlangten sie bald einen gewissen Ruf und den Titel „Sculpteur du Roy“. 1665 heiratete Jaillot in die Kartenverlegerfamilie Berey ein. Nach dem Tod seines Schwagers Nikolaus II. Berey 1640–1667 kaufte er die Berey-Kartensammlung von seiner Schwägerin. Dadurch erhielt er eine wertvolle Grundlage die er sofort vermarkten konnte ohne jemals selbst eine Karte erstellt zu haben. Jaillot stieg zu einem günstigen Zeitpunkt in das Kartengeschäft ein. Anfang 1668 gewann Ludwig XIV. den ersten seiner Réunionskriege und es begann eine Zeit in der Frankreich sein Territorium kontinuierlich erweiterte. Es entwickelte sich eine große Nachfrage nach Karten die die französischen Triumphe und die neuen Grenzen sowie bevorstehende Expansionspläne darstellten.Zu Jaillots Kartensammlung gehörten auch Druckplatten die von Pierre Duval 1619–1683 Neffe von Nicolas Sanson erstellt und ursprünglich an Nicolas Berey verkauft wurden. Doch Duval der auch seine eigenen Karten veröffentlichte weigerte sich seine alten Karten nachzudrucken. Auf dem Höhepunkt des Streits mit Duval rekrutierte Jaillot Ende 1670 Nicolas Sansons Söhne Guillaume und Adrien als Kartenmacher und Geschäftspartner. Mit ihnen konnte er neue Karten mit dem prestigeträchtigen Namen Sansons vermarkten. Sein erster Atlas aus dem Jahr 1681 Atlas Nouveau wurde ein so großer kommerzieller Erfolg dass andere Verlage begannen plagiierte Kopien zu verbreiten.Jaillot bemühte sich um königliche Schirmherrschaft und widmete viele seiner Kartenausgaben dem König. Schließlich wurde er am 20. Juli 1686 zum Géographe du Roy ernannt und erhielt eine jährliche Rente von 600 Livres. Dieser Titel sowie die protektionistische und kontrollierende Gesetzgebung ermöglichten es ihm sich erfolgreich gegen seine Plagiatoren zu wehren.Seit dem frühen 18. Jahrhundert gab Jaillot immer weniger Karten aus. Die Nachfrage nach zeitnah aktualisierten Karten nahm zu und er war immer weniger in der Lage auf die Anforderungen des Marktes zu reagieren. Jüngere Konkurrenten waren gut ausgebildete Geographen wie Guillaume Delisle die die Kartierung selbst durchführen konnten. Im Laufe der Zeit übergab Jaillot das Geschäft an seinen Sohn Bernard Jean-Hyacinthe.Alexis Hubert Jaillot starb am 2. November 1712 im Alter von 80 Jahren in Paris. Er wurde im Convent des Grands-Augustins beigesetzt. WikipediaNicolas Sanson der Ältere 20. Dezember 1600 in Abbeville Frankreich; † 7. Juli 1667 in Paris war ein französischer Kartograph. Seine Vorfahren stammten aus Schottland. Zwischen 1618 und 1667 schuf Sanson rund 300 Einzelkarten sowie Atlanten und illustrierte Texte.Seine Arbeit wurde von seinen Söhnen Nicolas Sanson 1626 Schottland; † 27. August 1648 in Paris Adrien Sanson † 1708 und Guillaume Sanson † 1703 seinem Neffen Pierre Duval 1619; † 1683 ausgeführt. sein Enkel Pierre Moulard Sanson † 1730 und Gilles Robert de Vaugondy 1688; † 1766 führten weiter.

Detailed map of the island east of Borneo in Southeast Asia with an inset of Banda and the Moluccas. Published in Sanson's 'L'Asie en Plusieurs Cartes.' 1652. Nicolas Sanson 1600-1667 began to make maps to supplement his study of history and a map of Ancient Gaul made early in his career brought him to the attention of Cardinal Richelieu. This foothold in the French court allowed him to rise to the position of geographe du roi teaching both Louis XIII and Louis XIV. Louis XIII even made him a counsellor of state. Sanson produced an atlas 'Cartes Generales de Toutes les Parties du Monde' which contained important maps of the post roads and waterways of France. He also produced two major maps of North America: 'Amerique Septentrionale' 1650 was the first map to show the Great Lakes in a recognisable form aided by Sanson's access to The Jesuit Relations a collection of accounts by French missionaries to the area. The map was drawn on a sinusoidal projection which Sanson was the first to use. In 1656 he made 'Le Canada ou Nouvelle France' which showed the Great Lakes in greater detail and included accurate representations of the Hudson Bay area the Delaware and the Gulf of Saint Lawrence. chez l'autheur, unknown

Nicolas Sanson 20 December 1600 7 July 1667 was a French cartographer termed by some the creator of French geography in which he's been called the "father of French cartography." The French school of Geography was unprecedented in its attention to precision and scientific detail and discarded much of the decorative embellishments of previous maps as irrelevant. From Sanson's time in the second half of the seventeenth century until the latter part of the eighteenth century French geographical conceptions were more influential than those put forward by any other nation. He was tutor to Louis XIII and Louis XIV. Sanson published over 300 maps. In 1692 Hubert Jaillot collected Sanson's maps in an Atlas nouveau. Wikipedia unknown
