Historic Map : Coronelli Globe Gore Map of NE North America, The West Indies, and NE South America, 1688, Vintage Wall ArtVincenzo Coronelli's extremely rare 1688 globe gore of Eastern America. Covers from Newfoundland south along the New England and Virginia coastlines to the Bahamas (Gigante) and the West Indies, showing parts of Cuba and all of Hispaniola, Porto Rico and the Lesser Antilles, as well as the northern parts of South America from modern day Venezuela to the Orinoco Delta and the Guianas.

Vincenzo Coronelli's extremely rare 1688 globe gore of Eastern America. Covers from Newfoundland south along the New England and Virginia coastlines to the Bahamas (Gigante) and the West Indies, showing parts of Cuba and all of Hispaniola, Porto Rico and the Lesser Antilles, as well as the northern parts of South America from modern day Venezuela to the Orinoco Delta and the Guianas. As Royal Cartographer to King Louis XIV of France, Coronelli had access to the most recent cartographic records coming from the New World - particularly form the French occupied territories in North America and the West Indies. Advocating French control of much of North America, Coronelli limits New England (Nuoua Inghilterra) to the regions immediately surrounding Cape Cod and Boston Harbor. Similarly, New York (Nuoua Iorck) is confined to the coastal lands near New York City, Connecticut and Long Island. Though largely supplemented by the British by the time Coronelli drew this map, he recognizes Sweden's claims to New Sweden (Nuoua Suecia) in the vicinity of Delaware Bay. The West Indies are drawn with considerable accuracy with notations for cities, ports, islands, and references to the powers that controlled them. Offers good though somewhat inaccurate detail of South America's mountain and river systems, particularly the Orinoco. This beautiful gore was originally drawn by Coronelli as part of his fantastic 42 inch "Terresterial Globe". Several examples of this magnificent globe are prized today by institutional collections in Europe and America. Far rarer are the atlases that Coronelli published from his globe gores. The Libro Dei Globi , published in 1693 and again in 1701, is the first and likely the finest example of a world atlas composed entirely of globe gores. Only seven complete examples of this rare atlas are known to have survived to modern times.

Works well
It's lightweight and the right height and width. It folds easily in either direction. It was challenging to put together, but with help from 2 friends, we did it. I'm hoping it will hold up during winter weather, outside on my deck, as a vanity shield when removing my swim gear.

Great purchase!
Size: 6 Panel
I absolutely love this thing. I've had it for over a year now, and its held up beautifully. I used it in my apartment as a divider between a very large living room, and its worked great. Sturdy, no issues.

Garbage!!!
Size: 6 Panel
The description of this item claims it is a room divider for patio privacy. The problem is that a little gust of wind and down it goes. Ther's not much privacy when it's always on the floor. This poor design needs some braces on the bottom to give it some stability and keep it from blowing over. Mine came damaged and the seller wanted me to pay $80 to have it shipped back to them despite uploading pictures of the broken hinge it came with. Take my advice, keep looking and don't settle for this one!
