-
Summary

This is a map of the Bay of Campeche in Mexico published in 1750. It shows the area from the Island of Port Royal which is the modern Isla del Carmen to the Tabasco River which is the modern Grijalva River. The area is roughly the modern extreme eastern portion of Campeche State in Mexico and a small portion of extreme northern Tabasco State in Mexico. At the top of the map is the title in French: Plan de Port-Royal et des Environs dans la Baye de Campeche which translates to Map of Port Royal and Surroundings in the Bay of Campeche and at the bottom below the map is the title in Dutch: Grondtekening van Port-Royal en de Omstreeken in de Cameche Baay which translates to the same as the French title. Shown on the map are Riv. Tabasco (Grijalva River), Bras de la Riv. St. Pierre (Arm of the St. Peter River, Modern Grijalva River), Riv. St. Pierre ed St. Paul (San Pedro y San Pablo River or the River of St. Peter and St. Paul), Isle Tabasco (the area of Tabasco State in between the Grijalva River and the River and St. Peter and St. Paul), Savanes (Savannas), Lac de l'Ouest ou des Boeufs (Western Lake or Oxen Lake or modern Atasta), Lac de l'Est ou de la Crique (East Lake or Cove), Crique (Cove), I. de Buisson (Buisson Island), I. de Ferles (Ferles Island), Riv. Sumasenta, Ici etoit le Village Indien de Sumasenta (Sumasenta River, now dried up), Port Royal, Laguna Termina ou des Marees (Laguna Termina or Laguna of the Tides, Modern Laguna de Términos), Embouchure de Port Royal ou il ny a que 10 piers d'Eau (Port Royal Mouth or There are only 10 Feet of Water), Isla Port Royal (Port Royal Island, modern Isla del Carmen), Pas ou Canal (Canal), I. Triste (Sad Island, modern Isla del Carmen), Banc de Sable (?), Grande Embouchure de Port Royal ou il y a 20 piers d'Eau (Large Mouth of Port Royal or There is 20 Feet of Water), Isle de Boeufs (Isle of Oxen) (Modern Atasta Peninsula in Campeche State), and Baye de Campeche (Bay of Campeche). Jacques-Nicolas Bellin who lived from 1703 to 1772 was an important cartographer of the 18th century. He is understood as geographe de cabinet and a transitional mapmaker spanning the gap between 18th and early 19th century cartographic styles. His long career as Hydrographer and Ingénieur Hydrographe at the French Dépôt des cartes et plans de la Marine resulted in hundreds of high quality nautical charts of practically everywhere in the world. His work focuses on function and accuracy tending in the process to be less decorative than the earlier 17th and 18th century cartographic work. Unlike many of his contemporaries, Bellin was always careful to cite his references and his scholarly corpus consists of over 1400 articles on geography prepared for Diderot's Encyclopedie. In addition to numerous maps and charts published during his lifetime, many of Bellin's maps were updated (or not) and published posthumously. He was succeeded as Ingénieur Hydrographe by his student, also a prolific and influential cartographer, Rigobert Bonne. Jakob van der Schley who lived from 1715 to 1779 was a Dutch engraver and painter. He has engraved the maps and views of the maps of the Dutch edition of Prevost's Histoire General des Voyage.

Summary
-
This is a copper engraved plate depicting a bird's-eye plan of the fortress of Kenoque situated at the junction of the Loo and Diksmuide canals besieged by the British in 1695. The engraving shows details of the improvements to the fortress proposed by Vauban. The fortress was demolished in 1781. The publication this is from is Atlas portatif, ou, le nouveau theatre de la guerre en Europe: contenant les cartes géographiques, avec les plans des villes & forteresses les plus exposées aux révolutions présentes: accompagnè d'une nouvelle méthode pour apprendre facilement la géographie & la chronologie des potentats. Translated this is roughly: Portable Atlas, or thé new theater of war in Europe: containing maps, city maps with forts & most exposer to these revolutions: accompanied by a new method to easily learn geography & timelines. It was published in Amsterdam, Netherlands by Daniel de la Feuille in 1702. Daniel was born of Huguenot stock in Sedan (L'Ardennes) France. As a young man, he apprenticed as a watchmaker. In 1663 La Feuille married Charlette Marlet, the daughter of a local carpenter. Twenty years later, in 1683, facing religious persecution of the Huguenots in France, the family fled to Amsterdam. By 1686, Daniel had become a burgher (citizen) of the city and established himself as an engraver, publisher, and art dealer. Not long after, in 1691, he was admitted into the Booksellers Guild. His cartographic work includes numerous individual maps and atlases, many of which continued to be published and republished well after his death in 1709. He was succeeded by his sons Jacob and Paul.
