Antique Map of the Region of Martigues, France

About the Item

Title: "Etang de Martigues et Environs: Antique Map of the Martigues Region, France" Description: This antique map, titled "Etang de Martigue et Environs," offers a detailed view of the Martigues region in France. It is a valuable historical document that provides insights into the geographical features and surroundings of Martigues during the 18th century. The map is part of "Le Petit Atlas Maritime," a work by the renowned cartographer Jacques-Nicolas Bellin, published in 1764. It serves as a window into the past, offering a glimpse of the coastal landscape and geographical knowledge of the Martigues area during that era. Bellin was an important maker of charts for the French Depot de la Marine. He was born in Paris in 1703 and educated as an engineer. He produced many important charts and published them individually and in compilations. The Neptune Francais was published in 1753 and the Hydrographie Francaise in 1756. His largest and most comprehensive work is the Petit Atlas Maritime.
