About the Item
In 1935, a remarkable map titled "Les Français au Cœur de l'Amérique" was produced, highlighting the rich history of French exploration and influence in North America. This map is a visual representation of the vast territories and routes explored by French explorers during the 17th and 18th centuries.
The map meticulously outlines the paths taken by notable French explorers, such as La Salle, Marquette, and Joliet, who ventured deep into the heart of the continent. These routes are color-coded to distinguish between different expeditions and time periods, offering a clear and comprehensive view of the extensive French exploration.
In addition to the geographic routes, the map features various illustrations that provide context and historical depth. These include depictions of significant landmarks, portraits of key figures, and scenes of interactions between French explorers and Indigenous peoples. These illustrations not only add aesthetic value but also enrich the viewer's understanding of the historical narrative.
One of the notable aspects of this map is its detailed cartographic elements. It covers a vast region from the Great Lakes down to the Gulf of Mexico, illustrating the French influence in areas that are now part of the United States and Canada. The inclusion of place names, rivers, and territories emphasizes the extent of French exploration and settlement.
"Les Français au Cœur de l'Amérique" serves as both an educational tool and a work of art. It captures the spirit of discovery and adventure that defined the era of French exploration in North America. The map is a testament to the enduring legacy of the French in shaping the cultural and geographic landscape of the continent.
This 1935 map remains a valuable piece for historians, cartographers, and enthusiasts of exploration history. It offers a vivid glimpse into the past, highlighting the significant contributions of French explorers in uncovering and mapping the vast and diverse territories of North America.

View AllConklin Lee Ten Years After, Sun Ra and Country Weather - 1968 Original Poster
Located in PARIS, FR
Original Poster from Lee Conklin.
Lee Conklin is an artist best known for his psychedelic posters from the late 1960s and particularly for his iconic cover of Santana's first album.
At the time, photography was the basis of advertising, while psychedelic graphics were done by hand and were mostly based on an illustration concept.
The posters of this movement claim a new aesthetic: the flashy and warm colors, the shapes and moving typography and the density of the motif that invades the space translate the psychedelic vision, often associated with the taking of substances such as LSD.
The psychedelic experience was evident in Ten Years After and Country Weather entangled in the branches of the island tree, but this was not a classic tree-of-life image. Fillmore West hung from the branches on spider web threads.
