Guadeloupe and Dependencies: Mid-19th Century Map from France Pittoresque Series
Located in Langweer, NL
This map titled "Guadeloupe et Dépendances" is part of the France Pittoresque series and provides a detailed view of the island of Guadeloupe and its surrounding dependencies.
Features:
- The map shows the two main landmasses of Guadeloupe: Basse-Terre and Grande-Terre, separated by a narrow channel.
- Several smaller islands, including Marie-Galante, Les Saintes, and La Désirade, are also depicted.
- The main cities, towns, and geographical features are labeled, with emphasis on the island's mountain ranges and rivers, particularly on Basse-Terre.
- An inset at the bottom right provides a detailed plan of Pointe-à-Pitre, a major city and port on the island. The grid layout of the streets is clearly shown, reflecting urban planning of the time.
Artistic and Cartographic Details:
- The map uses clear linework to differentiate between the different islands and the sea, with significant natural features such as mountains and rivers carefully depicted.
- The map was drawn by Monin and engraved by Jacqueline and Barrière, whose names appear in the lower right corner.
- The scale in the lower left corner is measured in leagues, showing distances both by land and sea.
Historical Context:
- This map likely dates to the mid-19th century, a period when Guadeloupe was a key French colony in the Caribbean. Guadeloupe was known for its sugar and coffee plantations, which played a significant role in France's colonial economy.
- Maps like this were often used for administrative, military, and educational purposes to give a comprehensive view of France's overseas territories.
The map of Guadeloupe et Dépendances from the France Pittoresque series likely dates to the mid-19th century, around 1840 to 1860. This period corresponds to the height of French colonial influence in Guadeloupe, and the map's style, detailed urban planning, and cartographic techniques are consistent with maps produced in that era.
The specific publication date could be further narrowed down if the map was part of a known edition of the France Pittoresque atlas, but based on the cartographic style and historical context, 1840–1860 is a reasonable estimate.
Here are some relevant keywords people might use when searching for a map of Guadeloupe and its surrounding areas:
1. Guadeloupe map
2. Basse-Terre and Grande-Terre map
3. French Caribbean islands map...

Impressive Decorative Engraved Map of the Red Sea and Arabian Peninsula, 1787
Located in Langweer, NL
This map, titled "Karte des arabischen Meerbusens oder des Rothen Meeres," is an original engraving from 1787 created by F. A. Schraembl, based on the cartographic work of d'Anville.
It is a partially colored copper engraving.
Key features and notable details of the map include:
1. The title is prominently displayed within a large, ornate cartouche, enhancing the aesthetic appeal and indicating the map's subject as the Red Sea (Rothen Meeres).
2. The map covers the Red Sea and its surrounding regions, including significant portions of the Arabian Peninsula and northeastern Africa.
3. There are two detailed inset maps:
- The first inset map shows the roadstead of the port of Suez (Rheede des Hafen von Sues).
- The second inset map depicts Bahr el Kolsum, the northwestern arm of the Red Sea, based on a map by De la Rochette from 1785.
4. Geographical Features: The map meticulously details the coastline, islands, and notable port cities along the Red Sea. The cartography highlights both natural and man-made features, with elevations and mountains represented through hachures.
5. Condition and Preservation: The map has a horizontal centerfold and is partially backed to prevent tears. The edges of the map sheet show minor holes, tears, and faint brown spots, yet it remains in overall good condition considering its age.
6. Historical Importance: This map is a valuable historical document, reflecting the cartographic knowledge of the late 18th century. It serves as a significant piece for collectors interested in antique maps, particularly those focusing on the Arabian Peninsula and maritime navigation in the Red Sea region.
The map shows the coastline of the Red Sea and the Arabian Peninsula, detailing regions and places along the western coast of Saudi Arabia and Yemen, as well as the eastern coast of Egypt and Sudan. Here are some of the most important places identified on the map:
1. Jeddah (Gedda): A major city and port on the western coast of Saudi Arabia, significant for its role as a gateway for pilgrims traveling to Mecca.
2. Mecca (Mekka): A holy city in Islam, located inland from the Red Sea, important for being the site of pilgrimage (Hajj) for Muslims.
3. Medina (Medina): Another important Islamic city, known for the Prophet's Mosque and being a key pilgrimage site.
4. Suez (Suess): Located at the northern end of the Red Sea, near the Suez Canal, it's a crucial link between the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea.
5. Aden: A port city in Yemen, located at the southern tip of the Arabian Peninsula, historically significant as a trading hub.
6. Mocha (Mokka): A port city in Yemen, historically known for being a major marketplace for coffee.
7. Sana'a: The capital city of Yemen, noted for its historical and cultural significance.
8. Bab el Mandeb: The strait connecting the Red Sea to the Gulf of Aden, crucial for maritime navigation.
These locations are critical due to their historical, religious, and economic significance, especially in terms of trade routes and pilgrimage sites. The map also illustrates the mountainous terrain and coastal features of the region.
The condition and preservation status, which, despite minor imperfections, is considered well-preserved for its age.
Overall, this map is a rare and valuable artifact, offering both historical insights and aesthetic appeal for collectors and enthusiasts of antique cartography.
