This is an original antique map titled "Carte Générale et Politique de l'Amérique," depicting the political and geographical features of North and South America. This map, created by Pierre Antoine Tardieu, illustrates the continent's boundaries, major regions, and significant features as understood in the early 19th century. Map Details: - **Title**: Carte Générale et Politique de l'Amérique - **Creator**: Pierre Antoine Tardieu (1784-1869) - **Publication Date**: Early 19th century - **Dimensions**: Approximately 34.5 x 43.5 cm (13.5 x 17.25 inches) - **Features**: The map includes detailed representations of North and South America, highlighting political boundaries, major cities, rivers, and mountain ranges. The title cartouche is located in the lower right corner, and the outlines are hand-colored to distinguish different regions and countries. Condition Overview: 1. Paper Quality: The paper shows typical signs of aging, such as slight yellowing, but remains in good condition without major tears or damage. 2. Edges and Corners: The edges are slightly worn, with minor fraying and small tears, particularly near the center fold. These imperfections do not significantly impact the overall readability or aesthetic value. 3. Center Fold: A center fold is present, which is common for maps of this period that were often folded for storage or publication. The fold appears intact without significant separation or damage, except for a small split at the lower end. 4. Color and Print Quality: The hand-colored outlines remain vibrant and clear, highlighting the borders of different regions. The print quality is excellent, with sharp, legible text and detailed illustrations. 5. Staining and Spots: There are a few spots and stains, particularly near the edges and along the fold. These do not obscure any critical details of the map. Historical Context Around the year 1800, the Americas were a region of significant political change and exploration. Here’s an overview of the region during that period: Political Landscape 1. North America: - United States: The United States was a young nation, having gained independence from Great Britain in 1776. The early 19th century was a period of westward expansion and the establishment of new states. - Canada: Canada was divided into British colonies, including Upper Canada (Ontario) and Lower Canada (Quebec). The British maintained control over these territories following the American Revolution. - Mexico: Mexico was part of the Spanish Empire, known as New Spain. It would gain independence from Spain in 1821. 2. Central and South America: - Spanish Colonies: Much of Central and South America was under Spanish colonial rule. Significant regions included New Granada (Colombia), Peru, and the Viceroyalty of the Rio de la Plata (Argentina). - Portuguese Brazil: Brazil was a Portuguese colony and the largest territory in South America. It would gain independence from Portugal in 1822. - Independence Movements: The early 19th century was marked by independence movements across Latin America, led by figures such as Simón Bolívar and José de San Martín, which resulted in the creation of new nations. 3. Caribbean: - The Caribbean islands were controlled by various European powers, including Spain, France, Great Britain, and the Netherlands. These islands were significant for their sugar plantations and as hubs of the Atlantic slave trade. Socio-Economic Conditions 1. Trade and Commerce: - The Americas were integral to global trade, exporting commodities such as sugar, tobacco, cotton, and coffee. The port cities of Havana, Veracruz, and Buenos Aires were crucial trade...

"A rare and impressive Regency period Récamier sofa or fainting couch, circa 1820s. Exquisite and vibrant Satinwood sleigh form featuring a scroll crest rail, rolled and flared arms. Upholstered in an elegant blue French brocade. Supported by curvilinear scrolled legs with block feet. Acquired from a 1980s auction after a heated bidding exchange with Ralph Lauren. The modern chaise longue was first popularised during the 16th century in France. They were created by French furniture craftsmen for the rich to rest without the need to retire to the bedroom. It was during the Rococo period that the chaise longue became the symbol of social status and only the rarest and most expensive materials were used in their construction. Today, the chaise longue is seen as a luxury item for the modern home. They are often used to complement a home's décor such as living or reading rooms, or as a stylish boudoir chair for bedroom seating. Duchesse brisée (Broken duchess in French): this word is used when the chaise longue is divided in two parts: the chair and a long footstool, or two chairs with a stool in between them. The origin of the name is unknown. Récamier: a récamier has two raised ends, and nothing on the long sides. It is sometimes associated with French Empire (neo-classical) style. It is named after French society hostess Madame Récamier (1777–1849), who posed elegantly on a couch of this kind for a portrait, painted in 1800 by Jacques-Louis David. The shape of the récamier is similar to a traditional lit bateau...
