EDITORS COMMENTS
This historical map, titled "Perou" and dated 1683, is an intriguing glimpse into the cartographic knowledge of the coastal region of South America during the late 17th century. Produced by the renowned French cartographer Guillaume Sanson and published by Jean Baptiste Nolin, this map is an important representation of the geographical understanding of the area during this time. The map focuses on the coastal part of modern-day Peru, stretching from the northern tip of Ecuador to the southernmost point of Chile. The mapmaker meticulously delineates the rugged coastline, marking various bays, inlets, and capes with great detail. The vast expanse of the Pacific Ocean is depicted to the west, with the equator and the tropic of Capricorn clearly indicated. The Amazon River, the lifeblood of the region, is shown flowing into the Atlantic Ocean, adding to the map's richness and depth. The dense forested areas, teeming with diverse flora and fauna, are depicted with a sense of wonder and curiosity, reflecting the exploratory spirit of the time. The map also includes various place names, some of which are still in use today, such as the cities of Lima, Callao, and Arica. The cartouche at the bottom right corner features an elegant design, complete with a view of a coastal scene, a native American figure, and a European explorer, highlighting the interconnectedness of the Old and New Worlds during this period. This map, created by Guillaume Sanson and published by Jean Baptiste Nolin in 1683, is a valuable historical document that offers a fascinating glimpse into the cartographic knowledge and understanding of the coastal region of South America during the late 17th century. It is a testament to the rich history and diverse geography of the area, and a reminder of the exploratory spirit that drove the cartographic endeavors of the time.
