1756 Plan and Bay of Petaplan, Guerrero, Mexico by the English pirate Anson

Item Details

Description

Title: 1756 Plan and Bay of Petaplan, Guerrero, Mexico by the English pirate Anson

Date/Period: 1756

Materials: Copper plate engraved

Size: 21 1/4” x 11”

In 1756, the English pirate Anson produced a plan and depiction of the bay of Petaplan (also known as Petaplan), located in the Guerrero state of Mexico. Petaplan is situated in the Costa Grande region, positioned between Zihuatanejo and Acapulco. Anson's detailed portrayal offers a stunning view of the bay, capturing its features with remarkable precision. The map includes a compass, providing additional navigational context. Anson's account, titled "A Voyage Round the World," stands as one of the greatest firsthand chronicles of voyages, adventure, and piracy from the age of exploration. Published in London in 1756, the book recounts Anson's perilous mission to attack Spanish territories in western South America and seize Spanish treasure galleons. The endeavor was fraught with risks, as capture by the Spanish would have resulted in charges of piracy and the execution of Anson and his crew. Setting sail in 1740, Anson's squadron faced numerous hardships, losing over two-thirds of their crew and three of their eight ships during their arduous journey. However, their unwavering determination propelled them forward, and in 1744, with only 125 men remaining, they successfully completed a circumnavigation of the globe aboard their flagship, the Centurion. Anson's relentless efforts ultimately culminated in the capture of the formidable Spanish treasure galleon, 'Nuestra Señora de Cobadonga,' in 1743 off Cape Espiritu Santo on Samar Island in the Philippines. This triumph elevated Anson to the rank of Lord in the British crown, solidifying his reputation as one of the foremost English commanders during the Seven Years' War. The map of Petaplan is a copperplate engraving in excellent condition, measuring 21 1/4" x 11". Its authenticity is guaranteed.
