Descripción del artículo del vendedor

640 x 470 mm, in fine early wash colour. With small area of slight foxing in the centrefold on the right otherwise on fine thick paper and in excellent condition. In about 1780 Carington Bowles first published "Bowles's Universal Atlas". An example of this edition appears to be in the Library of Congress. It was quite possibly intended to be a smaller and more manageable version of Kitchin's "General Atlas" first published in 1773. Those maps were often multi sheet and folding making their use difficult. In the Bowles atlas the majority of the maps are single sheet. Bowles appears to have re-issued the atlas with revisions just prior to his death in 1793. He was succeeded by his son Henry Carington Bowles (1763-1852) who shortly after formed a partnership with Samuel Carver. The firm was renamed Bowles and Carver and continued trading at No. 69 St. Pauls Churchyard. Most publications by this firm are rare and "Bowles's Universal Atlas" is no exception. Undated as before the atlas is usually ascribed the date of 1798 or thereafter based on internal evidence. This fine map of Portugal was first issued in the 1780 edition and here appears in fine full wash colour. Earlier examples are usually in outline colour. An attractive title cartouche appears upper left. "Olhar o Mundo ler o Territorio" Exhibition Catalogue p. 174 illustrating the earlier issue; refer Shirley "Atlases in the British Library" T.Bowl 2a; Tooley's Dictionary of Mapmakers.…
