Vintage 19th century map in very good condition. John Tallis (7 November 1817 3 June 1876) was an English cartographic publisher. His company, John Tallis and Company, published views, maps and atlases in London from roughly 1838 to 1851. Tallis set up as a publisher with Frederick Tallis in Cripplegate in 1842; the business moved to Smithfield in 1846, and was dissolved in 1849. From 1851 to 1854 Tallis operated as John Tallis and Company. He started The illustrated news of the world and national portrait gallery of eminent personages in 1858, selling it for £1,370 in 1861; it folded in 1863. (Wikipedia) The most important project John Tallis undertook, was the 'Illustrated Atlas' from 1851. The original map we offer here, was part of this exceptional Atlas and all the maps it contained are still today considered as the last reminder of an era of lavish map production. Tallis worked the project together with John Rapkin (1815-1876) and it was Rapkin's style and talent that we have to thank for when we marvel at these maps today. What makes these maps so special is the detail of engraved vignettes that surround the map and often show indigenous scenes, people in their environment and even more so, historical buildings or historical views of towns and cities, architecture and landscape. The project of 'The Illustrated Atlas' was designed to be finished just in time for the anxiously awaited "Great Exhibition of the Works of Industry of All Nations" or The Great Exhibition, sometimes referred to as the Crystal Palace Exhibition in reference to the temporary structure in which it was held, was an international exhibition that took place in Hyde Park, London, from 1 May to 11 October 1851. It was the first in a series of World's Fairs, exhibitions of culture and industry that became popular in the 19th century, and it was a much anticipated event. The Great Exhibition was organized by Henry Cole and Prince Albert, husband of the reigning monarch, Queen Victoria. It was attended by numerous notable figures of the time, including Charles Darwin, Samuel Colt, members of the Orléanist Royal Family and the writers Charlotte Brontë, Charles Dickens, Lewis Carroll, George Eliot and Alfred Tennyson. Music for the opening was under the direction of Sir George Thomas Smart and the continuous music from the exhibited organs for the Queen's procession was "under the superintendence of William Sterndale Bennett".

Soft cover. Excellent. Size 8.5 x 6 Inches. This is an influential c. 1726 map of the Beni in Bolivia and surrounding areas, which appeared in Joseph Sto?cklein's Der Neue Weltbott . Based on a c. 1713 manuscript map, it is a critically important map in the cartography of this part of South America, serving as the basis for later maps of the region for years afterwards. A Closer Look This map covers portions of modern southeastern Peru and northern Bolivia, centered on the Beni, the remote, low, flatlands situated between the Andes and the Amazon. The map is defined by two large rivers, the Beni and the Mamoré, arteries of a massive network of waterways that ebb and flow with the seasons. Mountains, tributary waterways, and settlements are noted throughout. Missions and many cities bear Christian names, mostly named after saints, while some retain their indigenous names, including Cusco (Guzko) at left, previously the resplendent capital of the Inca Empire. As with 'Moxos' itself, several toponyms employed here were in fact ethnonyms, a common misunderstanding in early European colonial maps. A Seminal Map As explained in Mirela Altic's 2022 book Encounters in the New World: Jesuit Cartography of the Americas , this map is based on an anonymous manuscript that was most likely compiled in 1713, when the Jesuit presence in the region was still highly tenuous. Although originally containing some errors (later amended), the 1713 map 'served as the main cartographic source for the representation of the Province of Moxos for a very long time,' being republished in Jesuit publications (including Sto?cklein's) and beyond for decades afterwards. The map as it appears in Sto?cklein's Neue Weltbott is based on a 1717 modification undertaken by Jean-Baptiste du Halde when he prepared it for publication in the Jesuit journal Lettres édifiantes , turning the map to orient it with north at top instead of east, shrinking it, and making several other changes. In translating the map from French to German, Sto?cklein then made a few minor modifications of du Halde's map, resulting in the work seen here. The Jesuits' Moxos Mission The Jesuit Moxos mission was a remarkable missionary effort in the Moxos region, located mostly in the present-day Beni Department, Bolivia, on the southwestern edge of the Amazon basin. This seasonally flooded plain was home to numerous indigenous groups like the Moxo (Mojo), Baure, Canichana, Trinitario, who, recent research has revealed, built huge, advanced earthworks that suggest the region supported a much larger pre-Columbian population than previously assumed. In any event, while geographically close to Peru, the Moxos mission was part of the Spanish Viceroyalty of Peru. It was among the last areas of South America outside of Amazonia proper to be reached by missionaries, owing to its remoteness from the coast. Still, once established in the region (at the end of the 17th century), the Jesuits and their mission played a major role in transforming both the religious and cultural life of indigenous groups in the lowlands. Publication History and Census This map appeared in Sto?cklein's Der Neue Weltbott mit allerhand Nachrichten dern Missionariorum Societatis Jesu , published between 1728 and 1758 (the map itself is generally dated to 1726). It is not independently cataloged with any institution, while Sto?cklein's entire work is rare in institutional collections and on the market.

hardcover. Condition: fine. first edition. Rare large scale map of the South American Highlands of Bolivia, Argentina, Chile and Peru, compiled by Victor Huot as part of a comprehensive study of the region by the Scientific Mission of G. de Créqui-Montfort and E. Sénéchal de la Grange. The map was drawn from a series of scientific expeditions in South America, mainly in to the Andes, made at the beginning of this century, on various subjects, including cartography, orography, physical anthropology, linguistics, fauna, paleontology, etc. South American Highlands Regions (Bolivia, Argentina, Chile, Peru) Traveled by the French Mission - Map Prepared by V. Huot from the Works of the Members of the Mission, the The following quote appeared in the Journal de la Societe des Americanistes de Paris (Nouvelle Series, Volume II, 1903, at page 346). A French scientific map of South America. - So far, the cartography of the Bolivian region of the Andes is quite poor. For Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Argentina, Chile, the general maps are still incomplete, even embryonic, but on the whole, quite satisfactory. For the Bolivian territory, no serious cartographic work exists to our knowledge. The maps of Ondarza, Reck, Muchin, Moreno, Idiaquez, Pando are more or less official publications, but all their documentation is based on information communicated by the local administrators. And, unless we are mistaken, very few of the cartographers knew first-hand the terrain represented. The recently published map of the Créqui Montfort-E. Sénéchal de la Grange Mission fills a signifiicant gap, it is more than simply and improvement, it is a foundational map, it will be a solid starting point and will serve as a basis for all future studies. Thanks to this map, for the first time, we can grasp, in outline, the topographic anatomy of these high Bolivian plateaus which constitute a region so original and so distinct. The map of the French Mission, besides the high plateau of Bolivia, that is to say all the Republic of Bolivia (minus the plains of Beni and Chaco), also offers us the Peruvian departments of Arequipa, Puno and Moquegua, the Chilean provinces of Tacna, Tarapaca and Antofagasta. It includes, in addition, the territory of Argentina, the province of Jujuy, part of that of Salta and the Argentine national territory of the Andes. In short, it shows all the high plateau of South America from 15 ° to 26 ° lat. S., in a developed format (1m 70> <1m 30). The Bolivian provinces of Lipez, Chichas, and Porco, left almost blank by the old maps, appear here in all the reality of their relief, delineated with the greatest care. For the departments of Arequipa and Moquegua, for the provinces of Jujuy and Salta, the French map also introduces important new detail . This is a beautiful work that honors its creators and authors, well served, the rest, for the translation of their observations and statements, by the talent of the draftsman, Mr. Victor Huot. It is a masterful preface to the great publications of archeology and ethnography promised by the Count de Créqui Montfort and eagerly awaited by all the Americanists. Ministry of Public Instruction. Mission G. de Créqui Montfort-E. Seneschal of the Barn, 1903. Regions of the high plateaus of South America (Bolivia, Argentina, Chile, Peru), visited by the French Mission. Map drawn up by V.
