Pierre Du Val: Canada
Title: Canada Map Maker: Pierre Du Val
Description: Rare Du Val map of Canada, the Great Lakes and Northeast, based upon Sanson's earlier maps of the region. Excellent example of the open ended Great Lakes to the West. Clearly shows a Northwest Passage through Hudson's Bay. Extends south to Virginia and names Florida. This is the second state of the map, with the addition of several Indian Tribal names in the West. References: Burden 351 (State 3, with Mer de Canada above Mer De Nort); Kershaw pp 132-34; Pasterneau pp 135-37; pp 162-65.
