Description
An attractive map of the Gulf of St. Laurence based on Bellin's definitive map of 1744. The map is very detailed with hundreds of place names, especially along the coastlines. The major fishing banks are well delineated. This is the second state with "No. 63" at the bottom left. Large decorative title cartouche and compass rose.
Emanuel Bowen (1694- 1767) was an English map engraver, who worked as a geographer for George II of England and Louis XV of France. His attractive maps are recognizable by his habit of filling every corner and space of the map with jottings and footnotes, both historical and topographical.
