Description

Topographically detailed map that extends from Paris to Metz and north into Holland. Details include roads and scores of villages. Two decorative cartouches: one with figures, flags and a lion, and a curtain-style distance cartouche with seven scales. Latin title on top reads "Belgium Regium Accuratissime Divisum…G. De l'Isle".
The map is from a Dutch edition of De L'Isle's work entitled, Atlas Nouveau, Contenant Toutes Les Parties Du Monde, Ou sont exactement Remarquées les Empires, Monarchies, Royaumes, Etats, Republiques &c. Par Guillaume de l'Isle. Premier Géographe de sa Majesté. It was published by Covens and Mortier, brothers-in-law who continued the firm established by Pierre Mortier.
