Antique map titled 'Kaart van het Westelyk Gedeelte van Nieuw Mexico en van California'. Beautiful map of Baja California and parts of Alta California, Arizona and Sonora. Isaac Tirion's map of Baja California is one of the best mid-18th century maps of Southern California, Baja California and parts of Arizona and Sonora. Issued 4 years prior to the establishment of the first Spanish Mission in Alta California (San Diego) and based in large part on the work of Ferdinando Consag, the map provides one of the earliest large format attempts to map this still mysterious and unsettled region north of Baja California, along with the then Jesuit regions of Baja California and Sonora. The map is one of the last to focus on the region before the expulsion of the Jesuits in 1768.
Published by I. Tirion, 1765.
