Featured Map of the Month

SE-US142 - J. JANSSON “Virginiae Partis Australis et Floridae Partis Orientalis Interjacentiumque Regionum Nova Descriptio.” Amsterdam 1642. Colored. 15X20. This very attractive & colorful map published by Jan Jansson (1588-1664) was based on a map by W & J Blaeu & shows America's southeast coast from Florida to Chesapeake Bay including Georgia, the Carolinas & Southern Virginia. In the late 16th century the Spanish had claimed the territory, but by the early 17th century the French & English had started colonies along the coast, & when the Blaeu map was drawn it was divided into English & French zones, depicted by the colorful coats-of-arms drawn on the map. Inland the map depicts rivers & lakes and the first showing of the Appalachian Mountains called Apalatcy Montes Auriseri, & it is said on the map that these mountains were named after the Indian King Apalatcy who lived there around 1562. This beautiful map is decorated with sailing ships, compass roses, cherubs & a handsome title cartouche ornamented with scrolls, strapwork & native figures. Published in “Nuevo Atlas O Teatro De Todo El Mundo” by Jan Jansson in 1642. French text on verso. $2,500
