Description
Atlas illustrated with 74 single or double-page maps, printed on strong paper and in original outline colors. It also includes the "Catalogue des Cartes et Tables Géographiques contenues dans l'Atlas Nouveau" and 19 geographical tables. The title page is missing.
According to the dates in the atlas it is safe to suggest that this is the very rare second edition of the Atlas Nouveau of 1684.

The edition of 1684 is rare; The contents differ from the then-only recorded copy described by Pastoureau, which she was unable to consult and which is itself incomplete (Chalons-sur-Marne, Bibl. mun. Gt 9385,)
Three other copies could be traced between 1936 and 1981, but they are either badly described or incomplete:
1936. Otto Lange catalog N°59. Americana books, maps, views. 80 maps and 19 tables. The copy is described as rare first edition;
1939. Sotheby's catalog. Rare and Valuable collection of voyages & travels, early atlases... 65 double maps. The copy is described as rare first edition;
1981. Sotheby's London catalog. 80 maps and 19 tables. Maps dated between 1674 and 1685. The atlas is described as a single volume (of two).
The dates on the maps sometimes differ from those described in Pastoureau, some are earlier, others later (see list of maps).

1681 and the Amerique septentrionale divisée...,
The atlas includes, for example, the rare 1681 edition of Amerique septentrionale divisée..., this second state is only reported by Burden in his online  "Corrigenda and Addenda, Update to the Mapping of North America", 438, State 2. 
Burden mentions only one other example discovered in 2014. The map has a reworked date of 1681 in the lower left and upper right corners.
State 1 1674 Dated 1674 lower left and upper right
State 2 1681 Dated 1681 lower left and upper right (This example with only one other recorded example)
State 3 1685 Dated 1685 lower left and upper right, no other alterations
State 4 1690 Dated 1690 lower left, the date top right is erased and left blank
State 5 1719 Dated 1719 lower left. Heavily revised.
State 6 1785 Dated 1785 and the presence of a MER OU BAYE DE L’OUEST 

By 1681 Jaillot had enough material to publish L'Atlas Nouveau. With the destruction of the Blaeu family business by fire in 1672, and the general lack of other competition, a ready market for a quality atlas had grown. Further editions appeared in 1684 and in 1689. The relationship between the Sanson brothers and Jaillot, rarely smooth, appears to have broken down altogether by 1690. 
In that year Pierre Mortier began work on a facsimile edition in Amsterdam. It is known that he had permission to do this and it is presumed to have been with Jaillot, rather than the Sansons. 
The latter's atlas appears to have been available well into the eighteenth century. However, continuing with the earlier title page dated 1689, and we assume from the surviving contracts that he retained ownership of the copperplates. This Jaillot plate continued to be available unaltered for many years until heavily revised in 1719. Jaillot had died in 1712 and the business was largely passed to his son, Bernard-Jean-Hyacinthe, and then to his son, Bernard-Antoine. Further heirs continued the business until it was finally dispersed at auction in 1781.

The maps in this atlas are dated between 1674 and 1684 except for two slightly shorter maps added later (Les Provinces des Pays Bas Catholiques distinguées... 1707 and Les Montagnes des Alpes ou sont remarqués... 1708).


The "Catalogue des Cartes" includes some handwritten numbering and several maps added in pen in the spaces left blank for that purpose. The tables were composed between 1677 and 1681. Jaillot was already thinking about a future extension of the atlas and a blank space was left for new maps of France and the Netherlands. 
The present table is as follows: after Le Royaume de France, Picardie was added; after Les Pais Bas catholiques and Les Provinces Unies des Pais-Bas, maps of the different provinces of Flanders, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg were added and then, at the end of the table, different provinces of Germany, Belgium, as well as a map of Poland, were added.

The Atlas Nouveau was published for the first time in 1681 by A.-H. Jaillot, who wanted to become one of the first publishers of geography with this atlas. However, Jaillot is only the publisher, almost all the maps are due to Guillaume Sanson.
The name atlas appears here for the first time in a French atlas title, but it is the image of "l'Hercule françois" and not that of the Titan that appears on the title page. The atlas includes mainly maps of European countries but also a world map, the continents (North and South America), two maps of the Turkish Empire and a map of the Holy Land.

The Atlas Nouveau will have two further enlarged French editions in 1684 and 1689. 

The present edition of 1684 is rare, Pastoureau mentions only one incomplete copy. Three other copies could be traced between 1936 and 1981 but they are either badly described or incomplete:
1936. Otto Lange catalog N°59. Americana books, maps, views. 80 maps and 19 tables. The copy is described as rare first edition;
1939. Sotheby's catalog. Rare and Valuable collection of voyages & travels, early atlases... 65 double maps. The copy is described as rare first edition;
1981. Sotheby's London catalog. 80 maps and 19 tables. Maps dated between 1674 and 1685. The atlas is described as a single volume (of two).
