Gilles Robert de Vaugondy (1688-1766) He was one of the leading cartographers of France. Card size: 73x50cm Frame size: 103x80cm Globe. Dated 1752 Orbis vetus in utrâque continent: juxtà mentem Sansonianam distinctus, nec non observationibus astronomicis redatus.

The western hemisphere is called the "Atlantis Insula" and the southeastern coast of Australia is shown as encompassing island areas actually to the north.
