Description

Scarce double hemisphere map of the World, published in Augsburg by Thomas Walch.

The map shows a fine early modern depiction of the world, with a more complete New Zealand and Australia, having recently had the vast majority of their coastal features more accurately depicted by modern explorations.

There is still no sign of the lands of hte Antarctic, although lands newly discovered to the east of Tierra del Fuego are now illustrated. The Coastlines of Alaska and the Northwest Coast of America are still quite inaccurate and the interior of Northwestern America does not yet reflect the new discoveries of Lewis & Clark, Pike and Humboldt.

In the Arctic circle, some of the newly discovered coastal information from the British expeditions in search of a Northwest Passage are located.

Two smaller projections of the Northern and Southern hemispheres are shown.

Condition Description
Two lines running from the bottom upward, possibly early ink lines.

Mappe-Monde Dressee Pour l'Etude de la Geographie, Relativement Aux Auteurs Les Plus Modernes

Mappe-Monde Dressee Pour l'Etude de la Geographie, Relativement Aux Auteurs Les Plus Modernes

A map of the world from Desnos' Atlas General Methodique et Elementaire, Pour l´Edude de la Geographie et de l'Histoire Moderne that appears to be from 1790. The map shows the world according to European knowledge of the time. The map is hand colored and outlined to give a striking representation of the different continents of the world. While the date given for the map is 1790, this appears to be the 1786 state less the ornate border but with the inclusion of text. Desnos adapted the earlier works of Brion de la Tour to aid in making these maps.
