Good. Light water damage around border. Verso reinforcement to centerfold. Closed margin tears professionally repaired on verso. Size 37 x 25 Inches. This is an 1888 Dépot des Cartes et Plans de la Marine nautical map of the Malay Peninsula and Singapore. The map reflects growing French influence in and around Singapore, a major… trading partner for French Indochina. A Closer Look Coverage embraces the southern Malay Peninsula and surrounding seas from Pulau Redang (Redang Island) to Pulau Batam and Pulau Bintan and from the Malay Peninsula to the Anambas Archipelago. Based on a British Admiralty chart, the current example has been modified to include observations made by French officers. The French in Singapore In the late 1800s, the French community in Singapore grew as France expanded its colonial influence in Southeast Asia, particularly with its establishment of French Indochina (modern-day Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia). Singapore, a British colony, became an essential trading and diplomatic outpost for the French in the region. French merchants, diplomats, and missionaries used Singapore as a hub to engage with the larger Southeast Asian market and as a point of access to the region's resources and goods. The French also contributed to Singapore's cultural landscape by establishing schools, religious institutions, and businesses, creating a small yet influential community that mingled with the diverse populations of the island. A Closer Look oThis map was published by the Dépôt des Cartes et Plans de la Marine in 1888.

Very good. Wear along original fold lines. Light soiling. Size 24 x 36 Inches. This is an 1826 Dépôt de la Marine nautical map of the Gulf Coast of Mexico. The publication of this map in France reflects renewed and growing imperial interest in the New World, which culminated in the French Intervention in Mexico (1838 - 1839). Th…is coast, and the Yucatan specifically, was the most important and wealthiest part of Mexico. The Yucatan was the only place in the world where sisal could be farmed from Henequen agave - the source of most of the world's nautical rope until the invention of synthetics. A Closer Look Based upon earlier Spanish charts, coverage embraces from the Laguna Madre south to the Yucatan Peninsula. Depth soundings appear haphazardly, disappearing along the stretch of coastline in the Bay of Campeche, except for the Laguna de Términos, underscoring just how poorly this region was mapped in the early 19th century. French Immigration to Mexico French citizens began immigrating to Mexico as early as 1700 despite the Spanish ban on all foreign settlement in its New World colonies. French expatriates were allowed to settle in Mexico because of the Family Compact between France and Spain, signed by the two countries after 1700 when French King Charles X installed his grandson, Philip V, as King of Spain. Nonetheless, French immigrants to Mexico had to meet specific requirements, such as mastery of a unique and useful trade. French immigration to Mexico surged after 1821 when Mexico gained its independence. The French established colonies and encouraged settlement in Mexico, with an estimated 6,000 French expatriates living in Mexico by 1860. French citizens were increasingly unwelcome in Mexico and began complaining about their treatment. Many describe being unfairly taxed and forced to take out usurious loans, among other issues. French immigrants were, moreover, denied land ownership, a law that applied to all foreigners in Mexico. These complaints directly influenced the First French Intervention in Mexico in 1838 - 1839 and the subsequent French invasion of 1861 - 1867, when France installed Emperor Maximilian I in Mexico. Maximilian's short reign as Emperor of Mexico ended in front of a Mexican firing squad. Publication History and Census This map was engraved by Jean-François Caplin with lettering by J.P. Besançon and published by the Dépôt de la Marine in 1826. An example is cataloged in OCLC and is part of the collection at the Bibliothèque Nationale de France. References: OCLC 894432248.

1st Edition. Very good. Dissected and mounted on linen in twenty-one (21) panels. Size 23.5 x 35.25 Inches. This is an 1867 French Dépôt de la Marine nautical chart or maritime map of Saint Martin Bay, Ile de Ré, France. Depicting the north shore of the Ile de Ré from Loix to La Flotte, hundreds of depth soundings populate the b…ay. Saint Martin appears at bottom center, with the city's fortifications illustrated in detail. The Ile de Ré The Ile de Ré sits off the coast of France in the Bay of Biscay not far from La Rochelle. The island changed hands several times between the English and French between 12th and 14th centuries. Ile de Ré commands coastal France from Nantes to Bordeaux, making it a prized possession, particularly during in the 17th century. It was the center of a Huguenot revolt in 1625 and the English unsuccessfully laid siege to Saint-Martin-de-Ré in 1627. Vauban fortified Saint Martin in 1681 and the city served as one of the depots through which convicts transited on their way to penal colonies in New Caledonia and French Guiana. Alfred Dreyfus was one of the many prisoners to pass through Saint Martin. The Nazis fortified the Ile de Ré during World War II, and some of the bunkers remain, which led to scenes from The Longest Day being filmed on the island's beaches. Today, the Ile de Ré is popular as an elite vacation destination. Publication History and Census The first edition of this map was created for the Dépôt de la Marine under the supervision of Charles-François Beautemps-Beaupré and published in 1831. The present example was updated by Anatole Bouquet de la Grye in 1867 and published by the Dépôt de la Marine. This is the only cataloged example of the present edition. We note two cataloged examples of the first edition.

Very good. Slight toning. Size 25.5 x 36.5 Inches. This is an exceptional 1756 J. N. Bellin / Dépôt de la Marine vexillology or flag chart illustrating worldwide maritime ensigns. It illustrates a total of 160 flags, most representing European powers, but some representing religious societies, Asian and African nations, and trad…ing companies. Trading Ensigns Trading companies represented include the VOC (Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie) or Dutch East India Company. Here, the 'V' in the company logo is erroneously engraved as an 'A.' Also noted is the GWC (Geoctrooieerde Westindische Compagnie) or Dutch West India Company. Although both houses were once global powerhouses, leveraging enormous wealth and large private armies, by the time this chart was issued, they were near the end of a long period of decline. Both lasted until the Fourth Anglo-Dutch War (1780 - 1784), after which they were dissolved and nationalized by the Batavian Republic. Flags of the Tartars Another item of exceptional interest is the two flags of the Tartars in the lower right - one bearing a dragon (or griffin), the other an owl, both against a yellow field. These flags first appeared in the Carl Allard flag chart of 1694 and were copied by many subsequent charts. Little is known of their origins. The chart suggests that the dragon or griffin represents the Tartar Emperor, the Khan himself, while the owl is a general flag for the Tartar Khanates. At the time, there were many Tartar Khanates. The dragon may refer to Zilant, a legendary creature commonly associated with the Kazan Khanate. However, the Kazan Khanate was landlocked and is unlikely to have ever fielded a navy, leading to further speculation that the flag refers to the Crimean Khanate (1441 - 1783), which maintained a Black Sea fleet. The owl figure on the second Tartar flag is even more mysterious. Allard posits it as an alternative 'Tartar' flag, but other than Allard derivates, we can find no reference to it. Publication History and Census This chart was compiled by Jacques Nicholas Bellin and published by the Dépôt des Cartes et Plans de la Marine, a French mapping agency similar to the U.S. Coast Survey or British Admiralty. It was issued both for separate sale and for inclusion in French nautical atlases. The map is quite rare. We note examples only at the Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Düsseldorf and Bibliothèque nationale de France. We also note at least two examples that have appeared privately in the late 20 years.

Very good. Toning along original centerfold. Light soiling. Size 24.5 x 35 Inches. This is an 1834 French Dépôt-général de la Marine nautical chart or maritime map of the east coast of the United States. The map appeared at the height of the U.S.-French textile trade, which it was likely published to support. Southern ports in V…irginia, Carolina, and Georgia provided the bulk of cotton for the French textile industry - a fact that would become a major point of contention during the Civil War (1861 - 1865), leading to the Cotton Famine (1863 - 1863). Depicting from New York City south to the mouth of the St. Johns River in Florida, coastal detail abounds. Depth soundings are indicated along the entire coastline, along with inlets, capes, banks, and coastal islands. The Delaware River is charted to Philadelphia. The Chesapeake Bay is detailed as far as Charlestown and Elkstown. The Potomac River (labeled here as Potomack) is illustrated to Washington, D.C., and the Rappahannock River (labeled here as Rappanahock) runs to Fredericksburg. Both Richmond and Petersburg are labeled along the James River, as is Norfolk. Albemarle and Pamlico Sounds are detailed in North Carolina, and Cape Hatteras, Cape Lookout, and Cape Fear are labeled. Both Charleston and Savannah are identified. Insets Two inset maps adorn the left side of the sheet. The top map details New York Bay and New York Harbor. Depth soundings are provided and navigational hazards, such as banks and reefs, are illustrated. Governor's Island and Ellis Island are both labeled, along with Red Hook, Brooklyn, Williamsburg, Bushwick, and Gravesend. The lower inset applies the same level of detail to the Chesapeake Bay. Shoals, banks, grounds, channels, and other navigational aids are all illustrated and labeled. Numerous depth soundings are indicated, particularly along suggested navigation channels. Hampton Roads, Newport News, and both the York and James Rivers are illustrated and labeled. Publication History and Census This map was drawn by Jacques-Marie Hacq and engraved by Chassant from maps published by Edmund Blunt and published by the Dépôt-général de la Marine in 1834. We note two examples cataloged in OCLC: Université Laval in Québec and the Muséum national d'histoire naturelle in Paris. References: OCLC 1131387017.
