Description
Northern Hispaniola & Southern Bahamas. Jacques Nicolas Bellin, Carte Reduite des Debouquemens de St. Domingue Dressee pour le Service des Vaisseaux du Roy..., 1768 (dated). Hand Color. This large-scale chart depicts the lower Bahamas, including the Turks & Caicos Islands, and the northern shore of Hispaniola. There is excellent detail of towns and villages, soundings and anchorages, shoals and topography.
Condition
A nice impression on sturdy paper with the watermark of a double-headed eagle with a heart. There are a few faint stains and archival repairs to a centerfold separation that just enters the map border at bottom and to several short tears in the top blank margin. Professionally remargined at right and left with the neatline replaced in facsimile. There is a light gray shadow along the centerfold that is caused by our scanner and does not appear on the chart itself. Grade: B+
