Map of southern South America from 1656 – Cartes Generales de Toutes les Parties du Monde…
“Le Paraguayr, le Chili. La Terre, et les Isles Magellanicques. Various relations”, Sanson/Mariette
Excellent map of the southern part of the continent by the influential French cartographer. Particular attention is paid to the river systems and the numerous volcanoes that run along the “Nevadas los Andes”.
There is also much detail on Paraguay, where the great and mythical Lago de los Xarayes forms the source of the River Plate.
The title is set in a cartouche in the style of a Greek key. Engraved by Jean Somer.
