Atlas of Americas, dedicated to Nicolas Fouquet, with 15 folded maps and explanatory text of various empires, peoples, colonies, customs, languages, religions and wealth. Maps are copper engraved double page, hand colored in outline, with decorative cartouche, some engraved by A. Peyrounin. Showing administrative and political divisions, major cities, towns, villages, rivers, mountains, drainage, etc. Relief shown pictorially. This is the fourth volume of the first edition of Sanson's quarto Atlas, a geographical description of the four continents of the world in four separate volumes, L'Europe, Asie, Afrique, Amerique, each with engraved title page, accompanied by text and folded maps, bound in full brown calf with rich gold decoration and gold title on spine. Published over the period 1648 to 1657, these are the first atlases published by Sanson, a noted French historian and cartographer, the geographer to the French king. Most of the maps were engraved especially for these works and are not reductions of larger previously published maps.
