Virginia
Blaeu, Joan. & Guiljelmus


Nova Virginiae Tabula

Amsterdam, G. & J. Blaeu. 1634-35 [37,7 x 48,2 cm]
Copper engraving, hand colored in outline, published in Joan Blaeu's 'Atlas Novus' German text edition in Amsterdam around 1634-35. Engraved by D. Grijp. This map was engraved after the famous map of Captain Smith's map of Virginia. This example is the 2nd state with the altered imprint 'ex officina Guiljelmi Blaeuw'. Blaeu used this map for the first time in his Atlantic Appendix (1630) and thereafter in virtually all editions of the atlas (Tooley). The appealing and quite detailed map is showing the discoveries of this region 'Virginia, the Chesapeake Bay and Maryland' after John Smith's map 1612. Blaeu's version of this map was the first map showing the Chesapeake region, that was really widely spread out by the Blaeu firm. It was one of the most detailed maps of the Chesapeake region, until 1673 in London the large four-sheet map by Augustine Herman was prepared.
In excellent condition. Burden 193; Koeman Atlantes Neerlandici 9410:2.2; Tooley, The Mapping of America pp. 161/162 Derivative 1 State 2/2;

de Fer, Nicolas


L' Amerique divisee selon L'etendue de ses principales parties et dont les points principaux sont placez sur les observations de Mesrs. de l' Academie Royale des Sciences. Dressee Par N De Fer, Geographe de sa Majeste Cathololique. A Paris chez le Sr. Danet gendre d l'Autheur sur le Pt. Ne. Dame a la Sphere avec Pe. de Roy. 1728.
Amerique Septentrionale et Meridionale Par N De Fer Geographe de sa Majeste Catholique A Paris Chez J.F. Benard Gendre de l' Auteur Quay de l' Horloge du Palais a la Sphere Royale 1739
Paris, J.F. Benard, 1698 / 1739 [ca. 108 x 160 cm]
Copper engraving, hand colored in outline when published. Large scarce scale wall map in 4 sheets, with printed top, bottom and side text panels. A highly decorative large wall map of the Americas with numerous decorative large vignettes: In the upper corners the famous beaver scene in Canada and the Cod Fishery in Newfoundland. These scenes were later used in Hermann Moll's map of North America. The other vignettes are showing inhabitants and Indians of Illinois, Louisiana, Virginia, Brazil, La Plata, Peru, Mexico and New Mexico. Also a mountain scene (probably Peru) and scenes with the Spanish at Rio de la Plata. Among these many fine engraved allegories we do find portraits of early explorers of the Americas among them Ferdinand Magellan, Christoph Columbus, Americo Vespucci, Francois Pissar and also two portraits of famous Indian kings: Artha Balipa and Monte-Zuma. Nicolas de Fer's wall map of the Americas appeared only in a few editions from 1698 onwards. The 1698 edition of de Fer's wall map is absolutely rare. Dahl calls it 'almost unknown' and neither Tooley or McLaughlin cite any edition prior to 1705. The very few editions up to 1739 differ mainly in the side panels with the descriptive text and in the top title and bottom text panel.
Overall a good to very good and well preserved example of this large early 18th century printed wall map of the Americas. The map was originally laid down on linen (as usual). Former old tears, mendings, creases and small losses of paper at the surface extremely carefully restored and backed on modern Japan paper. Parts of the upper engraved title, due of loss in the printed area, partially carefully redrawn. Size, including the printed top, bottom and side text panels: 42 1/4 x 62 3/4 inches [ca. 108 x 160 cm]. Tooley, Mapping of America #70; Ed Dahl, 'The Original Beaver Map - de Fer's 1698 Wall Map of America", Map Collector #29, Dec 1984, pp. 22-26.

Seutter, Matthaeus


Recens edita totius Novi Belgii, in America Septentrionali siti, delineatio cura et sumtibus Matthaei Seutteri, Sac. Caes. Maj. Geographi August. Vind.

Augsburg, Matthaeus Seutter 1730 [50,4 x 58,7 cm]
Copper engraving, hand colored in outline and wash when published. 2nd state of Matthaeus Seutter's map of the East coast from Virginia up to Massachusetts and Main. Seutter's map of New York is based on Jansson's and Justus Dancker's map of New England. In Seutter's map the 'Restitio cartouche' has been replaced by a new one showing Indians and gods presenting tribute to an English nobleman. This is probably George II. The map includes the distinctive course of the Delaware River, showing it separate from the Hudson River. Below the title cartouche we do find now a panoramic city view of New York 'Neu Jorck sive Neu Amsterdam', with a detailed table of explanations in Latin names below. Some place names and notes on the map have been translated from Dutch in Latin and German names. This is also the first map to show by means of printed lines the boundaries of Massachusetts, New England, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
A minor, hardly visible crease near the centre fold, else in excellent condition. Tooley, The Jansson-Visscher Maps of New England p.291 #25;
