Lot 169 | America settentrionale
CORONELLI, Vincenzo Maria (1650-1718). America Settentrionale colle nuove scoperte fin all'Anno 1688. [Venice: 1690s.]

“A major leap in the cartography of the day … the whole is aesthetically delightful, providing a perfect balance between the provision of scientific accuracy and beauty” (Burden). It is further one of the first maps to emphasize the importance of the Mississippi (although the mouth was placed 600 miles too far west) and to give an accurate rendering of the Great Lakes. Less accurately, it shows California as an island with a mountain range along its eastern coast, following Blaeu’s map of 1648. Burden 643; McLaughlin 103; Wheat Transmississippi West 70.

Engraved map on two sheets, hand-colored in outline, 620 x 935mm combined sight size (a few minor pale stains, a little larger off the Pacific coast of Oaxaca and in the right-hand corners of eastern sheet; some minor toning to centerfold of western sheet). Matted and framed (unexamined outside of frame).
