Añadir al carritoThe rare Hulsius edition the earliest obtainable edition of one of the legendary early maps of Colonial America: "the foundation map of New England cartography, the one that gave [New England] its name and the first devoted to the region" (Burden 187). After a period of inactivity following his Virginia escapades, Captain John Smith was invited by four London merchants to explore the coastline north of Virginia, with instructions to return with a profitable cargo. Smith arrived off the Kennebec River with two ships in May 1614. One of his ships concentrated on catching fish and gathering other valuable commodities, while he continued down the coast to chart and explore. Smith immediately recognized the poor state of the existing cartography for the region. He noted that he had six or seven maps "of those northern parts, so unlike each to other, and most so differing from any true proportion, or resemblance of the Countrey, as they did me no more good, then so much waste paper." Returning to England in December 1615, Smith had the map published with his A Description of New England in June 1616. According to a legend on the map, much of the nomenclature was provided by Charles, Prince of Wales, the future Charles I. Several of these placenames are still in use, including Cape Anne, Charles River, and Plymouth. The decorative elements were engraved by the outstanding Dutch engraver, Simon de Passe, who worked in London from 1616 to 1621. De Passe was most famous for his portraits. Griffiths notes that de Passe's English portraits "marked an epoch not only in the British print but in the development of European portrait engraving," most importantly for his introduction of "a new type of auricular frame.It is curious that such an advanced type should first be popularized in England." The first state of the map appeared only within Smith's A Description of New England in 1616. Between 1624 and 1639, eight additional states of the map were issued within Smith's Generall Historie (states 3-8, 1624-1632), or the work Historia Mundi (state 9, 1635-1639). The early states are rarely encountered, with the final states from the Historia Mundi generally the ones available on the market. In 1617, however, German publisher Levinus Hulsius translated Smith's Description into German within the thirteenth part of his Sammlung von Sechs und Zwanzig Schiffarten. "For this map he utilized the first state of Smith's New England published the previous year in London. The most noticeable differences, however, are the lack of any imprints lower left and right and the fact that the inscriptions are in German. There was a second edition in 1628 which also contained the map" - Burden. BURDEN 190. Sheet size: 12¾ x 14 inches. Old folds. Small split along one fold just below the portrait. Tissue-backed. Framed.
