Some minor soiling a little wear along centerfold with old verso repair normal aging; very good. Samson 1600-1667 is often referred to as the father of French cartography. Louis XIII was impressed with his work and appointed him "Geographe Ordinaire du Roi". During his career Sanson would produce about 300 maps and his major atlas "Cartes Generales de Toutes les Parties du Monde" would represent an important part of his body of work. While two of his sons continued publication of his maps after his death Pieter Schenk 1655-1718 an important publisher and engraver in his own right published this map. The map is attractively colored and gives a detailed view of the provinces of France. The map is also decorated with a large title cartouche. Bagrow p. 185. map hist website.</p>

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.

By Jaillot after Sanson a landmark of late 17th-century French cartography of North America. Alexis-Hubert Jaillot c.16321712 was one of the most important French cartographers and map publishers of the late 17th century. He collaborated with the pioneering geographer Nicolas Sanson 16001667 and his sons to produce finely engraved large-format maps of the world's regions publishing in Paris from 1670 onwards. Jaillot's maps are distinguished by their impressive scale rich baroque cartouches and the high quality of their engraving. His map of Canada and New France 1693 is a landmark document of 17th-century French geographical knowledge of North America reflecting decades of French colonial exploration and mission activity in the St. Lawrence and Great Lakes regions.Large and decorative map of Canada by the French cartographer Nicolaus Sanson and Hubert Jaillot. Published in the 'Atlas Noveau.' this atlas was a masterpiece in the French cartography in the 17th century.
