Venice: Antonio Zatta, 1788. unbound. Map. Engraving with original hand coloring. Image measures 12.25" x 16.75".
Beautiful early map of part of Southeastern Canada including Quebec, the Saint Lawrence, and Prince Edward Island. Part of a twelve section map comprising the Italian edition of Mitchell's map of North America In good condition with some light stains to the margins and surface abrasions.
Antonio Zatta (1775-1797) was the most prominent Italian map publisher of the late 18th century. His Venice-based publishing company produced maps that mark an important transition from 18th- to 19th-century cartographic styles. He updates and redefines the traditional title cartouche by replacing the mythic elements common in earlier maps with more representative images.
