      Sanson World Atlas, 1659

      Est: $60,000 - $80,000

      SANSON D'ABBEVILLE, Nicholas (1600-1667). Cartes Generales de Toutes les Parties du Monde. Paris: The Author and Pierre Mariette, 1658 [but 1659]. Comparables: Arader Galleries, 2015 - $97,600; Christie's, 2008 - $76,361. Folio. (17” x 11 3/4”). Title-page with woodcut arms (dampstained), 3-page contemporary manuscript "Repertoir des Cartes de ce livre" (without letterpress table of contents). 85 FINE engraved double-page maps, including 10 folding, hand-coloured in outline, mounted on guards throughout (one or two early repairs, tears, stains and edges frayed to folding map of Gascony, last map of Ancient Greece stained and laid down on contemporary stock). Contemporary mottled calf, spine in seven compartments with six raised bands, morocco lettering piece in one, the others decorated with small gilt tools (scuffed and worn with loss to extremities). A fine composite atlas: the manuscript list of contents detailing the 75 maps of the modern world, including two world maps, with an additional ten maps of the old world, including one world map. With two maps of America: "Amerique Septentrionale" (1650), the first to show all five Great Lakes; and "Amerique Meridionale" 1650. The maps were compiled by Nicolas Sanson who first published his atlas in 1654, with 100 maps, and engraved and printed by Pierre Mariette; each held the copyright to half of the maps which bear their separate imprints, and were issued progressively from 1630. The maps in this Atlas date from 1632 "Carte Geographique des Postes qui traversent la France" by Melchior Tavernier, but are evenly dated from the late 1630s to 1659. Born in Abbeville, a town in the Picardy region of France, in 1600, Sanson was the most noted French cartographer in modern history. Mapmaker to Louis XIV, King of France, Sanson endowed his maps with the most recent geographical information as well as the finest and sharpest engraving of the period. His "Cartes Generales de Toutes les Parties du Monde" was the most important single product of French commercial cartography of the seventeenth century. Sanson sparked a renaissance in geographical endeavor in his native country, which had not been a major player on the international cartographic stage since the great Oronce Finé in the sixteenth century. With this atlas, Sanson laid the foundations of French domination in map production, initiating the so-called "French school of cartography," 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. With this landmark atlas, Sanson all but single-handedly caused the center of cartographic innovation to shift from Holland to France. Lloyd Arnold Brown, The World Encompassed, exh. cat.

    • NICHOLAS SANSON'S 'ATLAS NOUVEAU' ENGRAVING
      Aug. 25, 2021

      NICHOLAS SANSON'S 'ATLAS NOUVEAU' ENGRAVING

      Est: $200 - $300

      Beautifully engraved index page of the 'Atlas Nouveau' - the largest atlas published at the time of its publication (in terms of paper size), and created via the partnership of CHARLES JAILLOT and NICHOLAS SANSON (1600-1667), often called 'the father of French cartography'. The design of this piece was first engraved by Sanson in 1681, and depicts geographic scholars at work on the lower cartouche. Other classical imagery surrounds the other margins, including Atlas hauling a world globe on his shoulders, Zeus atop a cloud with lightning bolds in hand, and an angel blowing a brass instrument. This particular example, measuring 16.5 x 19.5 in. (sight), bears a laid-down table of contents listing 103 maps, with an additional 7 maps annotated by hand for a total of 110 maps. As indicated towards the center, this piece likely stems from a rare transition atlas, published by Pierre Mortier, sometime between 1692 (when Mortier's atlas bore 99 maps) and 1696 (when Mortier's atlas bore 111 maps). The index page is housed loosely between a white mat, totally sized 25 x 29 in., held together at the edges by blue tape. The verso of the piece has also been taped to the reverse of the mat, non-visible within the frame. We have not attempted to remove it for fear of damaging the item, though it may be possible if carefully attempted. One very slight tear at left edge, barely visible under normal conditions, else very fine condition. Perfect for display! While this particular engraving has not been placed up for auction according to our research, a complete two-volume set of the Atlas Nouveau sold for 16,380 pounds at Sotheby's in August 2020.

Sanson's map is the earliest to concentrate on Spanish territories from Florida to California and provided a protype for other mapmakers over the next 50 years. Engraved by Jean Somer, it improves upon Sanson's Amerique Septentrionale in many ways. Amongst them is the first application of ERIE LAC to a recognizable lake. The depiction of California as an island was one of two most influential models (the other being the Briggs model), and was used as a model by many later cartographers. STATE 4

      Est: $80,000 - $120,000

      Tooneel der staden van de Vereenighde Nederlanden 's Konings Nederlanden. Willem Blaeu (1571-1638) and Johannes BLAEU (1596-1673). Amsterdam, [1649]. Dutch text. 2 volumes. Folio (22 x 13 6/8 inches). Engraved title-pages with fine contemporary hand-colour and HEIGHTENED IN GILT, 225 double-page sheets with over 300 maps and views WITH FINE CONTEMPORARY HAND-COLOUR (shallow worming in lower margin of first few leaves of volume II). Contemporary gilt panelled vellum, each cover decorated with central device of an armillary sphere within foliate border (lightly rubbed, and a bit marked). “Of all the Blaeu atlases, the townbooks of the Netherlands are held in the highest esteem in the Netherlands. This is partly due to the fact that their composition is linked up with the struggle for independence from Spain of the Dutch Republic in the 17th-Century. Bound up, by sentiment, with the most dramatic and heroic period of the shaping of the Dutch State it shows the proud and industrious cities of the North in their full splendour. Provenance: Richard Harris Collection: Natural History & Colourplate Books, his sale, Bloomsbury, October 13th, 2010, lot 121, $132,000.
