Lot Description

[Americana] (Allard, Hugo). Totius Neobelgii Nova et Accuratissima Tabula


Amsterdam: Reinier & Iosua Ottens, (ca. 1725). Engraved map of New England with hand-coloring, with inset "Restitutio" view of New York at bottom. 21 3/4 x 25 1/2 in. (552 x 648 mm). Sheet lightly toned, primarily along edges; small spot in top center edge; short separation at bottom center; sheet professionally deacidified. In mat and in frame, 25 x 28 1/2 in. (635 x 724 mm). Burden 373 (State 7); Tooley, p. 289 20 (Seventh state).

A fine example of this scarce map of New England by Hugo Allard, in the seventh and final state, published by Reiner and Joshua Ottens in Amsterdam. First produced by Allard in 1674, it is based on the Jansson-Visscher series of maps of the region, and here depicts Manhattan in the lower inset following its recapture by the Dutch in 1673, illustrating it for the first time from the East.
