Description: Antique map titled 'Indes Iere Feuille'. Old map of northern India. Covers the subcontinent from Kandahar east as far as Burma (Pegu) and south to just past Goa. Names countless important Indian cities, river systems and mines. Rhumb lines appear in nautical zones. Arrows in the lower left and lower right show the direction of prevailing winds during the dry season and the monsoon season. Originates from J. Lattre's 'Atlas Moderne'.
Artists and Engravers: Rigobert Bonne (October 6, 1727 - September 2, 1794) was one of the most important French cartographers of the late 18th century. Jean Lattre (fl. 1743 - 1793) was a Paris based bookseller, engraver, and map publisher active in the mid to late 18th century.
