About the Item
Carte du Bresil Map, Broenner Krefeld 1772 – Brazil Coastline Captaincies
This is an engraved map titled Carte du Bresil Prem. Partie, published in Krefeld (Germany) by J.J. Broenner in 1772. It shows the northeastern coastline of Brazil from the Amazon River to the Bay of All Saints (Baie de Tous les Saints). The map details colonial captaincies including Para, Maragnan, and Seara with numerous coastal settlements, rivers, and capes labeled in French.
The title cartouche reads: Carte du Bresil Prem. Partie Depuis la Riviere des Amazones jusqu’a la Baie de Tous les Saints Pour servir a l’Histoire Generale des Voyages, indicating it was originally drawn for the Histoire Generale des Voyages, a major French travel and exploration compendium edited by Abbé Prévost. This edition was re-engraved and published by J.J. Broenner in Krefeld in 1772, as stated at the bottom: Tirée de la Carte de l'Amerique de Mr. de la Tour. A Krevelt, chez J.J. Broenner, 1772. The map is based on the cartography of Louis Brion de la Tour, royal geographer of France.
An annotation notes that the interior of the country is not known and is inhabited by the indigenous Tapuyas peoples. Such maps provided European readers with geographic context for missionary, exploration, and colonial trade narratives in South America.
