Kashnor notes, "Shows the Gulf of California only reaching as high as the Bona Guia, but without the definite termination; also shows New Holland and part of New Zealand, with the tracks of Mendana, Dampier, Olivier, Tasman, Pelsart, Magellan and le Maire." This appears to be a later state of the 1700 map, see 093:180. The slant of South America has been corrected eastward, some new names appear on the west coast of Africa, and a new mountain range in Siberia. Image is lighter than 1700 original. See also 093:181, 105:244 and 105:245 for later editions. Cartouche - figures representing four continents. Prime meridian: Ferro. Relief: pictorial. Projection: Dual Hemisphere.

Mappe-Monde Dresée sur les Observations de Mrs. de l'Academie Royale des Sciences et quelques autres et sur les memoires les plus recens. Par M. de L'Isle
Visual Materials
Kashnor notes, "One of the earliest maps to show California with a continuous coastline, and showing the tracks of St. Antoine [1710], Mandana and Quir, Tasman, and other discoverers." This is a copy of L'Isle's 1700 map (093:180) with added border art, redone cartouche, the tip of South America corrected, the Solomon Islands moved. Kashnor dates as [1720] as does Shirley. This map shows corrections from 105:245 in Siberia, but the east coast of Korea is shown in the manner of the 1700 map. Name corrections in Africa on 105:245 do not appear. Compare with 105:244M dated 1720 with a less westerly trending California peninsula and Frisland no longer shown below Greenland. Route of the Mississippi and shape of Hudson's Bay follow the 1700 map, indicating this map may have been printed before the dated 105:244M copy and before the undated 105:245. Cartouche - figures representing four continents. Four submaps, arctic and antarctic polar views, one centered on Paris, another on Paris antipode. Merman and Mermaid with sailing vessels lower margin.. Prime meridian: Ferro. Relief: pictorial. Projection: Dual Hemisphere. Printing Process: Copper engraving. Other Features: CartoucheSub-maps.
