De Fer's rare map of Mississipi River 1718

Item Details

Description

Heading:
Author: de Fer, Nicolas
Title: Partie Meridionale de La Riviere de Missisipi, et ses Environs, dans l'Amerique Septentrionale
Place Published: Paris
Publisher:
Date Published: 1718
Description:

Engraved map, light outline color. 46.5x64 cm (18 ¼x25 ¼").

Scarce and significant map which includes New Mexico and Florida in addition to the Mississippi basin northwards of its junctures with the Missouri and Illinois rivers, with Lake Erie also shown. To the west New Mexico is depicted in some detail, with many settlements named including Santa Fe and Taos (Teoas). Numerous vignettes of Indian and animal life adorn the map. The map draws heavily on DeLisle's 1703 map of this region; it was also the southwest sheet of a four sheet map of North America. There was a 1715 issue of this map titled "La Rivere De Missisipi, et ses environs, dans L'Amerique Septentrional, " which does not have the vignettes of Indian and animal life, but the geography is essentially the same though there are a few additions. Cumming, Southeast in Early Maps, 169, notes this first issue in his discussion of 1718 issue.

Provenance: California Book Auction, 2/90

Condition

Some toning to paper, light dampstain in top margin intruding into title, vertical printer's crease through the whole map, still very good.
