Description
Fine example of this marvelous map of Mexico and the Western United States, published by Conrad Malte-Brun.
The map incorporates the information from Humboldt, Pike, and Lewis & Clark. It is the earliest known map to show a continuous waterway from the Great Salt Lake to San Francisco Bay, the mythical Rio Buenaventura.
Elegantly engraved and detailed map with a decorative cartouche.
Malte-Brun's maps are often overlooked, despite his tireless efforts to provide up to date cartographic information.
