Description: This rare plate originates from: 'Atlas Nouveau du Voyageur pour les Dix-Sept Provinces des Pais-Bas. ... Par le Sr. Sanson. Geographe du Roy.', Published in Amsterdam by Pierre Mortier, non-dated, but we found reference to 1701. Ref: Koeman A.N.III: Mor10, p. 19. This atlas contains 35 maps and must be very scarse as we found only one auction record and no other sales references. Collector's item.

Artists and Engravers: Mapmaker: Nicholas Sanson d'Abbeville (1600-1667) and his descendents were important French cartographer's active through the 17th century.
