Description
This is a magnificent map of Maine and northeastern Canada, including Nova Scotia, Labrador, Newfoundland and parts of Quebec. The map's vertical format is rather unusual as it elongates the geography and distorts Newfoundland and shows the St. Lawrence River running nearly north-south. It is very detailed, especially along the coastlines and rivers with many place names noted, both European and Indian, including Montreal, St. Law(u)rence River, Lake/Lac Ontario, etc. Indian tribes are located. At bottom right and in upper left by the cartouche are scenes with numerous sailing ships. At top left is a huge decorative title cartouche featuring allegorical figures, Indian chiefs, explorers, mapmakers, a fleet of ships, fishermen and wildlife. This is the second state of the map originally issued by Seutter, with Lotter's imprint in the title cartouche.
