Antique map titled 'Partie de Barbarie, ou est le Royaume d'Alger (..)'.

Copper-engraved map showing the Algerian coast of North Africa. Published 1683.

Artists and Engravers: Nicholas Sanson (1600-1667) is considered the father of French cartography in its golden age from the mid-seventeenth century to the mid-eighteenth. Over the course of his career he produced over 300 maps; they are known for their clean style and extensive research. Sanson was largely responsible for beginning the shift of cartographic production and excellence from Amsterdam to Paris in the later-seventeenth century.
