‎SANSON D'ABBELVILLE Nicolas‎

‎L'Asie en plussieurs cartes nouvelles et exactes: & en divers traitses de geographie et d'histoire‎

‎Paris: chez l'Autheur 1662. SECOND EDITION. Complete with 17 double-page engraved maps hand-colored in outline. Contemporary mottled calf corner edges neatly repaired interior has some minor dampstaining mainly on text and on blank verso of maps last blank leaf torn on lower fore-edge. A contemporary signature on first blank leaf. Similar to L'Amerique this atlas of the continent of Asia was first printed in 1652 and reprinted here with a new title page. The maps are all dated 1652 with only one dated 1653 and do not include the address of Mariette. The atlas features maps of India Persia China Japan the Maldives Arabia and the Philippines among others. Just prior to publication of this series of works which also included atlases of Europe and Africa Sanson formed a partnership with Pierre Mariette an engraver and printseller. Pursuant to their contract Sanson drew the maps and Mariette engraved and printed them. Each maintained possession of half of the plates and they were allowed to exchange and/or buy from one another. Some bore the address of Sanson others Mariette. But Sanson allowed Mariette to store his plates and Mariette without prior agreement started placing his address on Sanson's plates. In time a lawsuit which had been prosecuted was settled when both died and their respective sons took over the business. This atlas is a fine examples of French mapping by the foremost French cartographer of the seventeenth century. Sanson 1600-1667 "Geographe Ordinaire du Roi" to Louis XIII is considered the founder of French cartography and is generally acknowledged as the originator of the great age of French cartography. chez l'Autheur unknown‎

‎L'Asie.‎

‎Paris: Chez l'Autheur 1694 Single sheet 18 x 23 4/8 inches; 16 x 22 4/8 inches to the neat line. Double-page engraved map of Asia with original hand-colour in outline a little browned central vertical crease. A fine and very decorative map by Nicholas Sanson. The Frenchman Nicholas Sanson d'Abbeville 1600-1667 was the founder of the French School of Geography a school that was unprecedented in its attention to precision and scientific detail and discarded much of the decorative embellishments of previous maps as irrelevant. From Sanson's time in the second half of the seventeenth century until the latter part of the eighteenth century French geographical conceptions were more influential than those put forward by any other nation. This map gives a nice impression of Spain during its golden age. Paris: Chez l'Autheur, 1694 unknown‎

‎Paris: H. Jaillot 1684 2 sheets joined sheet size 25 x 36 4/8 inches ; 21 5/8 x 35 inches to the neat line full margins showing the plate mark. A fine engraved detailed map of Europe the title as a running headline and within an extremely elaborate allegorical rococo cartouche showing the arms of Le Grand Dauphin Louis de France 1661-1711 detailed scale within a decorative cartouche lower right with original hand color in outline light fold marks a little toned at the edges. A fine and attractive map from a later issue of Jaillot's 'Atlas Nouveau'. The Frenchman Alexis-Hubert Jaillot 1632-1712 was the most important atlas compiler and publisher of the last quarter of the seventeenth century. The great fire of 1672 which destroyed the Blaeu empire was his opportunity to take over this part of the market. He and Nicolas Sanson 1600-1667 the founder of the French School of Geography had a working relationship which ended by the end of the 1670s this led to Jaillot developing his own series of atlases. Due to his tremendous importance and efforts Jaillot was given the title of Geographe du Roy by Louis XIV The 'Atlas Nouveau' was the result of the intense collaboration between Jaillot and the Sanson family.

‎Les Deux Pole Arctique ou Septentrionale et Antarctique ou Meidionale �‎

‎Paris: 1657. Single sheet full margins original hand-color in outline 17 x 22 � inches sheet; 26 � x 32 inches framed An attractive double hemisphere map by "the Father of Cartogrpahy" Nicholas Sanson D'Abbeville. This map is based on the polar projections so as to include the northern and southern thirds of the world. The North Pole is found connected to Greenland and Spitzbergen but there is little other detailed coastline in the polar area. Europe Russia and Canada are delineated. The South Pole is based on the great unknown Southland of Magellan. The most southern tip of South America is shown and a large land mass "Terra Incognita" which encompasses the whole of the hemisphere but nothing else showing the limited extent of knowledge of these extreme latitudes. Extraordinarily enough though the southern projection which shows little more than the outline of a vast landmass 'Australe et Incogneue' roughly corresponding to Antarctica as we know it today long before any of it was discovered. Maps by Sanson in original colour are rare here with a colored outline. Nicolas Sanson 1600-1667 French cartographer who established the first great cartographic dynasty in France. He was tutor to Louis XIV. Sanson published over 300 maps and was a founder of the French school of mapmakers at a time when the leadership in European cartography passed from the Low Countries to France.

‎Mappe-Monde ou Carte Generale du Monde �‎

‎Paris: Chez P. Mariette 1651. Single sheet engraved map with full margins original hand-color in outline 17 x 22 � inches sheet; 26 � x 32 inches framed A fantastic uncolored map depicting one of the earliest views of the World. This map was created by one of the single most important French cartographers of the 17th century Nicholas Sanson D'Abbeville. This innovative approach to mapmaking redefined commercial cartography over the next 50 years and signal the beginning end of the Dutch domination over trade. Sanson's noteworthy double hemisphere map of the world featuring his first depiction of the Island of California using a model for the shape which would be known as the first Sanson model. The map also provides a good look at the Great Lakes of North America a region for which Sanson's regional maps would become the most advanced depiction of the cartography of the region for the next 30 years. It is one of the first maps to distinguish the Great Lakes with Lac Superior first named here. Lake Michigan here called Lac des puans lake of evil smells is also introduced here. All five of the Great Lakes were not named until Sanson's 1656 map of New France. Neither Tasmania or New Zealand is shown. A faint outline of Terra Magellanica appears in the south reflecting the uncertainty of the time. Australia is only partially shown and is labeled Beach after Marco Polo with place names on the south and west coasts reflecting the Dutch discoveries as they pursued the East Indian spice trade. The map is typical of Sanson's "scientific" style of cartography with no decorative elements. The map depicts a curious northwest Coast of America separated from California by an unnamed strait a curious omission for someone as meticulous as Sanson. This NorthWest Coast would disappear from his subsequent maps. It was published in conjunction with Pierre Mariette father and son who published many of Sanson's work after 1645.

The Frenchman Nicholas Sanson d'Abbeville 1600-1667 was the founder of the French School of Geography a school that was unprecedented in its attention to precision and scientific detail and discarded much of the decorative embellishments of previous maps as irrelevant. From Sanson's time in the second half of the seventeenth century until the latter part of the eighteenth century French geographical conceptions were more influential than those put forward by any other nation. This map gives a nice impression of Spain during its golden age. Paris: Pierre Mariette, 1652 unknown‎

‎SANSON d'Abbevile Nicolas 1600 67‎

‎Amerique Septentrionale‎

‎Paris: N. Sanson & P. Mariette 1651. Copper-engraved map with original outline colour. The rare second state of this highly important map of North America by the founder of the French School of cartography.<br/> <br/>This very rare map is the most geographically progressive portrayal of the continent made at its time and was not superseded until Vincenzo Maria Coronelli's map of 1688. Importantly it is the first map to depict the Great Lakes in a recognizable form and the first to name Lake Ontario and Lake Superior. In his rendering of the region Sanson benefited from having received a copy of The Jesuit Relations published in Paris in 1649 a detailed account by French missionaries who had traveled in the region. Most notably this included Father Paul Ragueneau's account of his visit to Niagara Falls and Jean Nicollet's discovery of Lake Michigan "Lac des Puans" in 1634. Down the St. Lawrence River from the lakes Montréal is named the settlement having been founded by the Sieur de Maisonneuve in 1642. Elsewhere to the north a mysterious strait weaves over "New South Wales" on Hudson's Bay terminating in the interior of the continent a blank space labeled as "Mer Glaciale". This alludes to the existence of a much hoped-for Northwest Passage. On the eastern seaboard the map notes "Nouvelle Amsterdam" in the place of present day New York and is the first printed map to label "Nouvelle Suede" referring to the Swedish colony centered on Fort Christina founded on the site of present-day Wilmington Delaware in 1638. To the far southwest Sanson based his depiction on the Father Alonso Benavides Memorial a travel account of New Mexico published in Madrid in 1630. It is the first printed map to label "Santa Fe" which is incorrectly shown to be on the banks of the Rio Grande and the domains of various native tribes such as the "Apache" "Navajo" and the "Taosij" Taos. To the west California is shown as a large island and features some of the same nomenclature as found on Johannes de Laet's map of 1630. A striking aspect of the map is the sinusoidal projection employed by Sanson that essentially places the globe on an elliptical graticule creating a very pleasing aesthetic. The composition is finished by an extremely elegant Baroque title cartouche featuring swags of fruit and vegetation. Nicholas Sanson was born in the town of Abbeville in Picardy. Something of a child prodigy by the age of eighteen he could already be found in Paris drafting his own maps. There he quickly rose to become Royal Geographer to Louis XIII in 1630. He maintained the position upon the ascension of the "Sun King" Louis XIV in 1643 and later served as tutor to the ambitious young monarch. In 1644 he formed a lucrative partnership with Paris publisher Pierre Mariette with the objective of producing a great atlas that could rival those of the Amsterdam houses such as Blaeu and Jansson. The present map was devised as one of the most important maps in the atlas. The first state of the map was printed in 1650 and the present second state appeared a year later. The atlas itself entitled Les Cartes Générales de toutes les parties du Monde was not finally assembled until 1658. It was however a landmark moment in the history of French cartography being the first folio atlas produced in that country. The extremely high quality of Sanson's work motivated other French mapmakers to improve the standard of their production. Sanson also greatly influenced Louis XIV's chief minister Jean-Baptisite Colbert to heavily fund cartographic projects. This gave rise to a great French School of cartography that was to eventually wrest dominance of the mapmaking market from the Dutch by the 1680s. After Sanson's death in 1667 his work was continued by his sons Guillaume d.1703 and Adrian d.1708. The first state of this map is extremely rare with Burden citing but two copies in private American collections. This second state is also quite rare and can be recognized by addition of a coastline north west of California but with Lake Ontario unshaded and with the appearance of a river system. "With his 1650 Map of North America Sanson had introduced a great deal of information concerning the nomenclature of American Indians with words such as Apache and Navajo appearing on printed maps for the first time. He was also the first cartographer to show Santa Fe as the capital of New Mexico . an extraordinary document of the cultural and geographical resources known in the centers of learning in Europe" Martin & Martin.<br/> <br/>Burden The Mapping of North America I 294 state 3; Leighly California as an Island p.33 pl.7; McLaughlin The Mapping of California as an Island 12; Pastoreau Les Atlas Français XVIe-XVIIe Siècles p.387-9; Wagner The Cartography of the Northwest Coast of America to the Year 1800 360 pp.130-2; Wheat Mapping of the Transmississippi West I p.39; cf.

‎[BRÉSIL] Le Brésil, dont la coste est possédée par les portugais et divisée en quatorze capitanieries. Le milieu du pays est habité par un très grand nombre de peuples presque tous incogneus.‎

‎Paris, Pierre Mariette, 1656 [1658]. 394 x 542 mm.‎

‎Belle carte du Brésil, dressée par Nicolas Sanson d'Abbeville, et gravée par Jean Somer. Première édition. Cette carte détaillée montre les limites des 14 capitaineries portugaises, toutes situées le long des côtes. Comme l'auteur le précise dans le titre, les côtes du pays appartiennent aux Portugais, tandis que l'intérieur des terres est habité par un très grand nombre de peuples encore inconnus. Tout le long des capitaineries sont nommées une cinquantaine de tribus indigènes. L'Atlantique est nommé "Mer de Nort et du Brésil", et le tropique du Capricorne a été nommé par erreur tropique du Cancer. La carte est décorée d'un beau cartouche de titre. Reconnu comme le fondateur de la cartographie française, Nicolas Sanson, le premier de cette célèbre famille de cartographes, quitta sa ville natale d'Abbeville pour Paris, où il rencontra Richelieu en 1627. Ce dernier, très impressionné par son œuvre cartographique, le présenta au roi Louis XIII qui le nomma Géographe Ordinaire du Roi. Il fut le premier, en France, à concevoir un atlas mondial, et publia près de trois cents cartes. Bel exemplaire, contours aquarellés à l'époque. Petites galeries de ver comblées dans la marge supérieure. Pastoureau, SANSON V A, 95.‎
