NOLIN, J.B. / CORONELLI, P. - Archipelague Du Mexique. ou Sont les Isles de Cuba, Espagnole, Iamaique, etc. Avec les Isles Lucayes, et les Isles Caribes, Connues sous les nom d'Antilles . . . 1742

Scarce map of Caribbean. A visually stunning map with a large title cartouche. This large one-sheet map was produced by the Venetian cosmographer Vincenzo Coronelli when he was working in Paris in the 1680's. Tillemon, who corrected and amended the map was, Coronelli's collaborator in Paris and J.B.Nolin was their publisher.
Nolin must have published this map separately on several occasions as it is not regularly found in atlas form.
Florida's southern coastline is curiously shaped and the Bahamas are shown as a series of oversized islands.
The final edition with the date of 1742 and the publisher's address to rue Saint Jacques. ¤
