    GENERAL REMARKS:
    Jacques-Nicolas Bellin
    (1703–1772) was one of the most important Cartographers of the late
    XVIII° Century
    .
    Jacques-Nicolas Bellin
    was a
    French Hydrographer
    ,
    Geographer
    , and
    Member of the French
    Intellectual Group
    called
    The Philosophes
    .
    Bellin
    was born in Paris. He was Hydrographer of France's Hydrographic Office, member of the Académie de Marine and of the Royal Society of London.
    Over a
    50 Year Career
    , he produced a large number of
    Maps
    of particular interest to the Ministère de la Marine.
    His
    Maps
    of Canada and of French Territories in North America (New France, Acadia, Louisiana)
    are particularly valuable. He died at Versailles.
    In 1721, at age 18, he was appointed Hydrographer (
    Chief Cartographer
    ) to the French Navy.
    In August 1741, he became the first Ingénieur de la Marine of the Depot des Cartes et Plans de la Marine (the
    French Hydrographical Office
    ) and was named
    Official Hydrographer
    of the
    French King
    .
    During his reign the Depot came out with prodigious amount of
    Charts
    and
    Maps
    among which was
    a large folio format Sea-Charts of France, the Neptune Francois.
    He also produced a number of
    Sea-Atlases
    of the World, e.g., the
    Atlas Maritime
    and the Hydrographie Francaise.
    These gained fame, distinction and respect all over Europe and were republished throughout the
    18th
    and even in the succeeding century.
    Bellin
    also came out with smaller format Maps such as the
    1764 Petit Atlas Maritime
    (
    5 vols.
    )
    containing
    580
    finely detailed
    Charts/Maps
    .
    Bellin
    set a very high standard of workmanship and accuracy thus gaining for France a leading role in European Cartography and Geography.
    Many of his Maps were copied by other Mapmakers of Europe;
