Item Overview

Description

This elephant folio, striking map is from Charles Hubert Jaillot and Nicolas Sanson's work Atlas Nouveau, Contenant Toutes les Parties du Monde. The work was published in Paris by Hubert Jaillot between 1692 and 1693.

This map is a fine example of the development of early modern cartography. It was originally a map arranged by Nicolas Sanson. Alexis Hubert Jaillot re-engraved and published the map and pushed French cartography forward when the Dutch were the leaders of this field. It demonstrates the precision and scientific mapping that would become associated with the French. One of the major achievements of the map is showing the full size of the world using an equal area projection.
