Bemerkungen
Sehr seltene, grenzkolorierte Kupferstich-Karte von ca. 1790. Blatt-Maße: ca. 43,5 x 56 cm. -- im unteren und oberen Außenrand etwas wasserfleckig, sonst gut erhalten. || Very rare old colored map from c. 1790. Most likely very early state of the map by Louis Capitaine du Chesne (c.1749-1797) from La Rochefoucauld-Liancourt's „Voyage dans les Etats Unis d'Amerique fait en 1795, 1796 et 1797“, possibly a test/sample print. We assume the plate is the same as the one used for the published map, which suffered some changes before reaching its final state. Some of the differences noticeable on our map: the title is different - („Carte des Etats-Unis – Provinces Meridionale“); the scale of the map is missing; The mentions of „Nord“ and „Sud“ are not present on our map; Cape Fear is not labelled as such and the surrounding places are not; Tennessee is misspelled - „Tennassee“; Malborough is spelled „Malboro“, the same goes for „Graniboro“ and „Waynesboro“; on the upper part the mention of „Western Territory“ is missing and the rivers in that corner as well; The „Old Town“ in Louisville is not marked; Not all mountain ranges are present (see, for instance, in Georgia) or the Chestnut Ridge and Laurek Ridge in the northern part; the region around Charleston does not include the surrounding places; the right upper corner presents several differences in terms of geography – mainly the coast, but also the rivers which are missing on our map; the Great Dismal Swamp is not marked on our map; in general mark for landforms are missing (see the swamps and the moutina ranges);The outside the margin region of Columbia in the north is not present on our map -- with some waterstaining on the upper and lower outer margins, otherwise in good condition. ||
