THE WORLD, Twin Hemispheres, California Island, Senex original antique map 1741


 

A New and Correct Map of the

WORLD

From The Latest Observations

by

John Senex

Published London 1741 by Patrick Gordon in his "Geography Anatomiz'd or the Geographical Grammar".

An original mid 18th century copper engraved antique map of The World in hemispheres by John Senex.

A lovely world map with many interesting features.

California is depicted as an island and New Zealand appears with a single charted coastline.

 An incomplete Australia or New Holland is shown as contiguous with New Guinea.

The inscription at the base of the map extols the virtues of Senex's globes made and sold against St.Dunstan's Church, Fleet Street, London.
 
A crisp dark impression on hand laid paper, blank verso. Enhanced with attractive later hand colouring. 

Fine condition, free of repairs or restoration. Fold lines as issued with some light associated creasing.

Approx. 11.5" x 6" (290mm x 150mm)  map area only, with full margins beyond.


 John Senex 1678 -1740

Shropshire born, Senex was a leading engraver and map publisher in 18th century London who became a Fellow of The Royal Society and Geographer to Queen Anne. 

He is especially known for his fine world maps and maintained a penchant for perpetuating the myth of California being an island. His strip road maps of Britain are also widely collected.
