Pierre François Tardieu Wall Decorations

French, 1711-1771

Pierre François Tardieu was a very well-known map engraver, geographer and illustrator. Tardieu was born on December 24, 1711, in Paris. He was awarded a bronze medal by King Louis-Phillipe for the accuracy and beauty of his map-making. Tardieu produced many fine works, including maps of Louisiana, Mexico, Russia and Asia in addition to his illustrations of French provinces. Additionally, the mapmaker was the first to engrave steel rather than copper. Overall, he was widely celebrated for his skilled combination of research, detail and technical talent. Tardieu died on January 15, 1771, in Paris.

Antique 18th Century Map of the Province of Pensilvania 'Pennsylvania State'
Located in Philadelphia, PA
A fine antique of the colony of Pennsylvania. Noted at the top of the sheet as a 'Map of the province of Pensilvania'. This undated and anonymous map is thought to be from the Gentleman's Magazine, London, circa 1775, although the general appearance could date it to the 1760's. The southern boundary reflects the Mason-Dixon survey (1768), the western boundary is placed just west of Pittsburgh, and the northern boundary is not marked. The map has a number of reference points that likely refer to companion text and appear to be connected to boundaries. The western and southern boundaries are marked Q, R, S, for example. A diagonal line runs from the Susquehanna R to the Lake Erie P. A broken line marked by many letters A, B, N, O, etc., appears in the east. There are no latitude or longitude markings, blank verso. Framed in a shaped contemporary gilt wooden frame and matted under a cream colored matte. Bearing an old Graham Arader Gallery...
