| Coronelli's Map of the
Great Lakes, 1688 Vincenzo Coronelli's 1688 map of western New France is the most
accurate general portrayal of the Great Lakes on a printed map in the seventeenth century
and is an excellent fusion of the many explorers' manuscript maps received while he was
cartographer to Louis XIV. Ordinary and bizarre activities are depicted in the cartouches
in the upper and lower right-hand corners. (National Archives of Canada, NMC-6411) |

Frislanda.
Venice 1692-94. 22,5x30 cm. Frisland appears as a name of an island south of Iceland
on many old maps depicting the North Atlantic region. In Nicolo Zeno’s book and map
of 1558 it is very prominent. Frisland was probably an amalgamation of Iceland and the
Faeroes and the double of both of them. This map is from Corso geografico universale by
Vincenzo Coronelli and is probably derived from the Zeno map. |
