Sobre este artículo
Paris, 1775. Very good condition. Detailed copper engraved map of Juan Fernandes islands in the South Pacific, off the coast of Chile. The islands were the home of Alexander Selkirk, a sailor marooned there in the early 1700s, an event which may have served as the inspiration for 'Robinson Crusoe'. Selkirk was put off his vessel by a British captain and partner with Capt. William Dampier on a buccaneering expedition in search of Spanish vessels carrying gold. With an inset view of the northeast coast of the island at the top of the map. With compass rose, rhumb lines and ornate cartouche.
Bellin (1703 - 1772), one of the most noted French mapmakers of the 18th century, was named the hydrographer (chief cartographer) to the French Navy, and later, the Official Hydrographer to the French King.
One vertical fold, 11 1/2 x 8 1/4". Strong impression, very clean, small chip to lower right edge only, not affecting printed area.
