AMERICA SETTENTRIONALE divisa ne soui principali STATI

Map of north America, fairly accurately depicted apart from the north-west Canadian coast and Alaska, which were still unexplored. With pictorial cartouche at lower left with trees, nuts and vegetation, and a fence surrounding title. Antonio Zatta was one of the leading cartographers and publishers of the time, and his Atlante Novissimo was one of the most beautifully produced of 18th century atlases. He drew on the work of other cartographers- such as Captain Cook, for his maps of New Zealand and Australia, Robert de Vaugondy, Bellin, and developed his own distinctive elegant style.

Fine condition, good margins.
