AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
DESCRIPTION: I present to you at auction a complete atlas that is extraordinarily rare and highly sought after: the Nouveau Atlas François, published in Paris in 1719 by Jacques Chiquet. This work, of great interest to collectors and lovers of antique cartography, retains its original engraved cover and features no less than 16 outlined maps in color, with a very delicate period manual coloring that enhances each line and border with a unique charm.
The atlas displays the unmistakable French style of the 18th century, with clean, well-drawn engravings and a surprising freshness despite its over 300 years of history. The maps, especially striking, stand out for their precision and the beauty of the colored contouring, a highly valued feature that makes this specimen particularly attractive both for bibliophiles and for those seeking high-value decorative works.
Complete specimens with such richness of color are extremely scarce in the market, and they tend to disappear quickly from public and private collections.
A true cartographic jewel from the 18th century, perfect for collection, investment, or display. Opportunities like this don't come around often: if you're looking for a unique, historic, and visually spectacular piece, this atlas is for you.
A rare opportunity that few times presents itself. Don't let it slip away.
