Antique Map of the Province of Navarre with the City of Pamplona, Spain
About the Item
Antique map titled 'Royaume de Navarre (..)'. Decorative map of the province Navarre (Spanish: Navarra) in Northern Spain centered on the city of Pamplona. Published by N. Sanson, 1652.
Nicholas Sanson (1600-1667) is considered the father of French cartography in its golden age from the mid-seventeenth century to the mid-eighteenth. Over the course of his career he produced over 300 maps; they are known for their clean style and extensive research. Sanson was largely responsible for beginning the shift of cartographic production and excellence from Amsterdam to Paris in the later-seventeenth century.
The map depicts the historical region of Navarre (Royaume de Navarre) and its surrounding areas, including parts of the Basque Country and Aragón. Here are some key areas and notable places within this region:
1. **Pamplona (Iruña)**: The capital of Navarre, famous for the annual Running of the Bulls (San Fermín festival). Pamplona is a city rich in history and culture, with landmarks such as the Pamplona Cathedral and the Citadel.
2. **Olite (Erriberri)**: Known for the impressive Olite Castle, a Gothic-style palace that was one of the most luxurious in Europe during the medieval period. The town itself has charming streets and historical buildings.
3. **Tudela**: A significant town in the Ribera region, famous for its historic architecture, including the Cathedral of Tudela. The town also serves as a gateway to the Bardenas Reales, a semi-desert natural region with unique landscapes.
4. **Estella (Lizarra)**: An important stop on the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage route. Estella is known for its medieval architecture, including the Church of San Pedro de la Rúa and the Palace of the Kings of Navarre.
5. **Baztán Valley**: Located in the northern part of Navarre, this valley is known for its picturesque villages, lush landscapes, and traditional Basque culture. Highlights include the town of Elizondo and the scenic beauty of the Pyrenees.
6. **Roncesvalles (Orreaga)**: A small village with a big historical significance, as it is another key stop on the Camino de Santiago. It is known for the Collegiate Church of Roncesvalles and its medieval hospital for pilgrims.
7. **Merindades**: The map divides Navarre into different administrative regions called merindades. Each merindad has its own historical significance and includes various towns and villages with local traditions and architectural highlights.
8. **Lumbier and Arbayún Gorges**: These natural gorges are impressive sites for hiking and bird-watching, with dramatic cliffs and rich biodiversity.
These areas are steeped in history and culture, offering a mix of medieval architecture, religious significance, natural beauty, and vibrant traditions. Visitors to this region can enjoy a wide variety of activities, from exploring historical sites to hiking in scenic landscapes.

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.
