Contact seller4-star sellerBy: John ThomsonDate: 1814 (Published) EdinburghDimensions: 24 x 20 inches(61 x 51 cm)This superb large format map from Thomson's New General Atlas features one of the Low Countries Holland. The map is engraved in the minimalist English style pioneered in the early part of the 19th century, a style which reduced maps' decorative… elements to a minimum. Relief is shown by hachure with towns, cities, and major topographical features all identified.The area long referred to as the Long Fourteen is shown in fine stipling. This area of the North Sea is consistently fourteen fathoms deep, with soundings at many points along it always notated on sea charts. Thus the sand bar came to be known as the Long Fourteen. The area has been the site of many naval battles throughout history. Modern vessels, especially oil tankers, must avoid the area or risk being stranded.The map is highly detailed, depicting dikes, canals, along with numerous other topographical details, including pictorial depictions of the many low-lying marshy areas in Holland. Government divisions are shown and named. This is a fascinating map of a fascinating part of Europe, which aptly illustrates the ingenuity and determination of its peoples in wresting land from the sea.John Thomson (1777 - 1841) was a Scottish cartographer, publisher, and bookbinder active in Edinburgh during the early part of the 19th century. Thomson apprenticed under Edinburgh bookbinder Robert Alison. Thomson was one of the leading publishers in the Edinburgh school of cartography, which flourished in the early decades of the 19th century. Thomson and his contemporaries (Pinkerton and Cary) redefined European cartography by abandoning typical 18th century decorative elements such as elaborate title cartouches and fantastic beasts in favor of detail and accuracy.Condition: This superb large format map on heavy paper is in A condition.

Though Wellington and von Blucher ultimately defeated Napoleon at Waterloo, the economic destruction which resulted from the lo…ng years of war plunged Europe into and Great Britain into depression from which they would not recover for several years. Thomson's map has many interesting details, such as the distances in leagues to and from a wide variety of ports.

A fine example of John Thomson's stunning c. 1814 hand-colored map of the West India islands of Dominica and Martinique, engraved by Kirkwood and Son for the 1817 edition of Thomson's General Atlas . A Closer Look Divided into two sections, this map offers spectacular detail of… these two picturesque islands. Both sections offer detail to the level of individual buildings noting churches, convents, villages, hospitals, and forts. Some sailing hazards and portages are also noted, along with mountains, rivers, caves, forests, and river systems. In the lower-left hand quadrant, there is an inset of the Cul-de-Sac Royal (modern day Fort-de-France). Publication History and Census This map was prepared by John Thomson and engraved by (Robert) Kirkwood and Son in Edinburgh for inclusion in Thomson's New General Atlas , which went through multiple printings in Edinburgh, London, and Dublin between 1815 and 1817. Examples of the map display different pagination (or none at all) and other minor details depending on the printing, with the plate number here (No. 66) seemingly added separately from the main plate.

Contact seller4-star sellerGood. Light offsetting. Trimmed unevenly at left edge. Size 20.5 x 24 Inches. An example of John Thomson's hand-colored 1814 map of the West India islands of Antigua, Guadeloupe, and Marie-Galante. A Closer Look The West Indian islands of Antigua, Guadeloupe, and Marie-Galante are depicted in detail with attention to rivers, top…ography, towns and villages, and major port cities. Even individual buildings, including churches and windmills, are illustrated. Saint John (Saint John's) on Antigua stands out for its size and geometric plan. The modern history of these islands was defined by the slave trade and plantation economies, but the years immediately preceding this map's publication were highly tumultuous, especially for Guadeloupe, which saw foreign invasion (it changed hands between Britain, France, and, briefly, Sweden, during the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars (1803 - 1815)), the abolition and reimposition of slavery, and consequent slave uprisings.

Contact seller4-star sellerVery good. Closed tears extending one-half inch into printed area from top margin professionally repaired on verso. Lightoffsetting. Size 20.25 x 25.25 Inches. A fine example of John Thomson's 1814 map of the English Channel, published in 1817 in his New General Atlas . A Closer Look England is depicted from Cornwall eastward as… far as Canterbury and the Strait of Dover, while the French coast is covered from Goulet Harbor eastward to Boulogne. Coastal settlements and nearby inland ports, including London and Bristol, are noted in considerable detail. Some hazards, lighthouses, islets, and other features are indicated on the water, including the Eddystone Lighthouse at left, which, when originally built in 1698, was likely the first ever offshore lighthouse. An interesting element of the map is the naming of regions, such as English shires and French départements, along the coast. Historical Context During the Napoleonic Wars, which would end at Waterloo just one year after this map was engraved, the English Channel became a major hotbed of smuggling and war profiteering, with English textiles flooding into continental Europe. The close proximity of the coasts, with only 24 miles separating Dover and Calais, as noted here, made such operations relatively practicable despite the channel's notoriously choppy waters. Publication History and Census This map was engraved by John and George Menzies of Edinburgh in 1814 for issue in the 1817 edition of Thomson's New General Atlas . It is not independently cataloged among the holdings of any institution aside from the David Rumsey Historical Map Collection, while Thomson's entire atlas is more widely distributed in institutional collections.

This hand colored map is a steel plate engraving, dating to 1814 by the important English mapmaker John Thomson. It depicts France divided into its color cod…ed provinces. Until 1790 France was divided into 40 provinces based on local loyalities and feudal histories. On March 4th of 1790 the National Constituent Assembly reorganized the Provinces into 101 departments, but old habits being what they are, many maps, including Thomson's, continued to depict the provinces of France well into the 20th century. Thomson maps are known for their stunning color, awe inspiring size, and magnificent detail. Thomson's work, including this map, represents some of the finest cartographic art of the 19th century.
