This map of French Guiana stretches from the Isla de Maraca in the south to past the Maroni River in the north. There is good detail of the rivers in the region, in addition to numerous coastal place names.
Rigobert Bonne was an important French cartographer of the late 18th century. In 1773 he succeeded Jacques Bellin as the royal cartographer in the office of the Hydrographer at the Depot de la Marine. Working in his official capacity, Bonne compiled some of the most detailed and accurate maps of the period.
