Item Details
Description
Colonial Southeast United States. Jacques Nicolas Bellin, Carte de la Caroline et Georgie. Pour Servir a l'Histoire Generale des Voyages, from Histoire Generale des Voyages, 1757 (dated). Hand Color. This delicately engraved map covers the colonies of Carolina and Georgia from Albemarle Sound to the Alatamaha River. It probably owes its origin to the 1752 map of the region by Emanuel Bowen. There are numerous English settlements along the coast, and Indian villages are located throughout, including a number west of the Appalachian Mountains. There is more detail in the area west of the Blue Ridge than in many other maps of the period. It shows a rudimentary course of the Tennessee River in the northwestern section of the map. A decorative rococo-style title cartouche incorporates the distance scale.
Condition
On a clean sheet with a bunch of grapes watermark. There is a small hole just above "Pais des Apalaches" that has been closed on verso with old paper. Grade: A
