1752 Buffier Map - Mappe Monde

Claude Buffier introduced his fine little geography book, 'Geographie Universelle' in 1715, embellished with an attractive set of world maps. It sold well and after a number of editions the maps were changed. This map comes from a 1759 edition of 'Geographie Universelle'.

This double hemisphere map of the world is notable since it clearly depicts the Island of California, a cartographic misconception which lasted until 1720 - this map was 'accurate' in 1715 when 'Geographie Universelle' was first published, but by the time of the 1752 edition this cartography was about 30 years out of date.

Australia and New Zealand still await the discoveries of Captain Cook and the huge hypothetical southern continent is included.

A nice addition to any collection of world maps.

The map measures 5.5" by 7" with two folds (as issued), has wash hand colouring, and is in very good condition.

The map is guaranteed to be over 240 years old.
