unbound. Abraham Peyrounin (illustrator). Map. Engraving with original outline color. Image measures 15 3/4" x 21 3/4" This exceptionally fine map of South America covers the continent in fine detail. Coastlines are extensively labeled, and mountains beautifully rendered in profile. The Orinoco and Amazon Rivers, as well as Rio de la Plata, are prominently rendered. Sanson refrains from drawing a southern coastline to Tierra del Fuego, and the relatively unknown Amazon region is depicted in minimal detail. Sanson does, however, include the mythical lake "Lac de Parime", and the city of gold "Manoa del Dora" between the Orinoco and Amazon rivers. Nice dark impression. In very good condition. Minor dampstain to lower margin not affecting the image, and some faint stains near the center of the map - otherwise clean and bright. Hard to find. Nicolas Sanson (1600-1667) is considered the founder of the French school of cartography. In reaction to the prevailing trend of Dutch lavishness, Sanson favored minimal details, focusing rather on accurate cartography than ornament.
