Description
A detailed map of Baja California and Sonora, bounded on the north by the Colorado and Gila Rivers and approximately Mozatlan in the south, thus including parts of modern Arizona and New Mexico, an area including the modern towns of Yuma, Phoenix and Tucson, while Cape St. Diego is marked at the site of the modern city.
A fascinating, uncommon, detailed map.
The Baja Peninsula and Sonora are shown to be dotted with Spanish garrisons and Jesuit missions established in the wake of Father Eusebio Kino, who explored the area in the late 1600s.
The shores of the Peninsula and the Sea of Cortés are charted in finely assured detail, as are the courses of the lower Colorado and Gila Rivers, the latter running near the present-day site of Phoenix, Arizona.
Below Los Virginos (Tres Virgenes Volcano), there is a note regarding Ferdinando Consag's having witnessed the eruption of the Volcano in 1746, on his first visit to the region. A bit further north, a note in Dutch identifies the Cantons (regions) of the non-believers; another note is derived from Jesuit sources.
One of the best mid-18th-century maps for California and Baja collectors, and certainly the most ambitious commercial effort to map the region. An essential map for Baja, Arizona and Southern California collectors.

Color Key
We offer many maps in their original black and white condition. We do not systematically color-up maps to make them more sellable to the general public or buyer.
Copper engraved or wood block maps are always hand colored. Maps were initially colored for aesthetic reasons and to improve readability. Nowadays, it is becoming a challenge to find maps in their original colors and are therefor more valuable.
We use the following color keys in our catalog:
Original colors; mean that the colors have been applied around the time the map was issued.
Original o/l colors; means the map has only the borders colored at the time of publication.
Colored; If the colors are applied recently or at the end of the 20th century.
