1843 DUFOUR Map AFRICA Fascinating Statistical Table, Mysterious Interior, Rare!
Afrique 38 cm x 24 cm steelplate engraving. 41.5 cm x 26.5 sheet size, original hand colour, Jules Renouard, Paris, circa 1843 We are pleased to offer this elegantly designed map of Africa compiled by the French geographer and mapmaker Auguste Henri Dufour(1798-1865) for his atlas Le Globe- Atlas Classique Universel de Géographie Ancienne et Modern. A work that was published with updates for some 25 years in the mid-19th century. The plates were originally engraved in the mid 1830s by the Giraldon-Bovinet firm established by Edme Bovinet(1767-1832) and carried on by the engraver, globemaker and publisher Giraldon, who is best known today for his involvement in a over the publication of Louis Daguerre's pamphlet announcing his invention of the daguerreotype in 1839. The map presents a fascinating snapshot of European knowledge of ... morethe continent in the fourth decade of the 19th century. Or rather the lack thereof with regard to the interior. An extensive statistical table at left discusses the geography, geology, flora, fauna and peoples of the continent. Handsomely engraved with extremely delicate horizontal lines for littoral waters, the map features original full wash and outline hand colour in and will make a fine presentation if matted and framed. The map presents virtually no data regarding the Lakes Region with only Lake Malawi shown in tentative outline and speculative river courses- indeed John Speke would not become the first European to reach Lake Victoria for more than a decade after the map was published along with his visit to Lake Tanganyika with Richard Burton. A cryptic notation is presented regarding the point where an unnamed expedition stopped in 1842: To get a sense of map detail consider that the distance from Gibraltar south to Accra on the Gold Coast as seen below measures just 9 cm actual size: Condition- Please note carefully: This ~ 170-year-old map is in very good condition as can be ascertained from photos. Crisp steelplate impression, original hand colour bright and vivid, c en

1823 Manuscript Map of Africa
1823 Manuscript Map of Africa WE SELL ONLY ORIGINAL ANTIQUE MAPS- NOT REPRODUCTIONS Title: Africa. Description: An unusual and beautiful semi-manuscript map of the Africa dating to 1823. The printed portions of this map follow the cartography of James Wyld and include the basic outlines of the countries. Latitude and longitude lines, the Tropic of Capricorn, the Equator, and the Meridian of London. The remainder of the map, including all textual labels and color work, had been completed in manuscript, that is to say, hand drawn. Wyld most likely produced this map intentionally without labels for use as a classroom workbook by which children could learn geography by filling in the blanks. The manuscript geographical data and detail throughout is altogether outstanding. The work is completed in a fine hand adept at decorative text and the rendering ... moreof rivers and mountains. The geography follows the conventions of the period. Africa is transected by a large apocryphal mountain range identified as the Mountains of Kong in the west and the Mountains of the Moon in the east. Both ranges were speculated as possible sources for Africa's great river systems, the Niger and the Nile, respectively. Although the cartographer makes little attempt to map the interior in serious detail, reflecting the general lack of European knowledge of the region, some areas are represented more thoroughly than others. These include the Senegambia, Egypt Nubia and Abyssinia, the Congo, South Africa, and the Lands of Monomotapa and Mozambique. Lake Malawi is illustrated in an embryonic but largely accurate form. Throughout various tribal nations are noted. An altogether unique and wonderful one of a kind find. Size: Printed area measures 14.5 inches high by 17.5 inches wide. Condition: Very Good. Partial manuscript. Original centerfold. Platemark visible. Wide margins. Shipping: Items are shipped within three business days of receiving payment. We are happy to consolidate shipping where possible. The following shipping options are availabl

Created to illustrate a voyage of exploration and discovery across the world to the Southern Ocean and Pacific region. In the 18th century. Engraved illustrations such as this one were the primary method by which a person could see images of far away and exotic places. Voyages of discovery were then popular topics of discussion and men such as Dampier and Capt. Cook were heroes of their time. These"popular" types of prints were often sold individually and as part of illustrated travel accounts. All of which are ... morenow scarce and valuable today. They are much sought after as a visual record of a bygone era and are great conversational items once framed for display. When you stop to consider their age and the fact they are original engraved works of art. It's amazing how affordable they actually are. What is also very interesting is that many of these views were continually re-engraved over time. So that while titles may be identical, in fact the engraved plate may be an entirely different one. This means there are likely numerous variants for each image, something which will reveal itself with close comparision between the prints. In Good+ or better condition. Some light small staining, minor paper wrinkling and age wear, small paper adhesion above title word"Barbary" most of which is visible in the photos[note: we grade very conservatively and always seek to disclose any noteworthy flaws] The printed area remains visually attractive. A pleasing impression of an interesting 18th century engraved image. Well worthy of display. Any small defects along the sheet edges and in the margins may be seen in the photos. Sheet measures c. 9 1/8" H x 14 1/2" W. Printed area me

SCARCE,ANTIQUE MAP,Scherer,1705, AFRICA, Heinrich Scherer
iscra antique maps& prints'Mappa Geographica Exhibens Religionem Catholicam Alicubi per Africam Sparsam' Description: A scarce map of Africa by the Jesuit Heinich Scherer. Printed in ca. 1705. The Christian theme of this map is boldly presented in the graphic illustration of the Crucifixion above the map's key. The map itself is a fine example of the state of geographic knowledge(or lack thereof) at the beginning of the 18th century. The continent is presented with a fairly accurate coastline, but most of the interior is entirely fictional. The Nile is shown in the traditional manner with its source in the large southern lakes of Zaflan and Zembre. The Zembre, also labeled Lac Zaire, spawns the Congo and Zaire Rivers as well. The locations of Catholic churches and missions are shown. Some sea monsters and a large ship with ... morea cross on its sail fill the Indian Ocean. Date: ca. 1705 Publication: Scherer's'Atlas Novus' Scherer's Atlas forms an important milestone in the development of scientific and thematic cartography. Providing a remarkable and revolutionary alternative vision of the World in showing only its major physical and topographical features. Technic: Copper engraving with later hand coloring.
