Buache, Philippe, 1700-1773
Note
3 Color outline maps on a single sheet, 58x76. The map at top is centered on Europe and African Continent, it does not include the western part of North America or the Pacific. It includes tables showing variations in longitude and latitude. The two maps below are polar projections, Northern and Southern Hemispheres. Map of Northern Hemisphere showing North America does not show a Sea of the West unlike the 1850 Buache DeLisle map (see our 11734.000). The map of the Southern Hemisphere shows the tracks of recent explorations and includes Antarctic lands and interior sea and depicts New Zealand as a part of Terres Antarctiques. "Plan et Vue des Terres du Cap de la Circoncision" shows an imaginary part of Antarctica.
