"Le Chili. Tire de Alf de Oualle de la C. d. I. et Divise en Treize Iurisdictions", Sanson, Nicolas

Fine small version of Sanson's important map of Chili showing the Cuyo provinces. The map is based on the descriptions of Alfonso de Ovalle, and is completed by a graceful title cartouche. Although his imprint does not appear on this map, this map was re-engraved from Sanson's 1657 map by Antoine de Winter.
