Jacques Le Moyne de Morgues, the first European artist to visit the New World, created a number of sketches and maps during his year-long stay at Fort Caroline in Florida between 1564 and 1565. After a series of Spanish raids ruined his work and disbanded the French colony, Le Moyne returned to Europe, where he continued painting naturalistic florilegia. At the request of King Charles IX, Le Moyne redrew many of his American pieces from memory, though he did not publish them. Upon Le Moyne's death in 1588, his widow sold the American paintings to Flemish engraver Theodor de Bry, who produced the copperplate engraving Americae Floridae Provinciae for his book America pt II in 1591.

Americae pars, Nunc Virginia dicta began as a sketch when British mathematician Thomas Harriot and Elizabethan artist John White explored newly chartered Virginia by longboat c. 1585. White created a loose graphite sketch of the coastline as well as a painted watercolor edition complete with names of local Native American tribes. Fearing a leak of information to rival Spaniards, White's cartography was never published in England; instead, Flemish engraver Theodor de Bry recreated White's map for his book America (1590) in Frankfurt, Germany. Titled Americae pars, Nunc Virginia dicta, de Bry's copperplate engraving was widely circulated throughout Europe as pro-colonization propaganda. Later hailed as one of the best maps of the sixteenth century, Americae pars, Nunc Virginia dicta influenced later cartographers such as John Smith.

Captain John Smith was one of the greatest early explorers of the Chesapeake area, a founder and early governor of the Jamestown settlement, and an accomplished surveyor. The importance of his map, like his place in history, is impossible to overstate. The most influential map of the area made in the 17th century, Smith's Virginia is remarkable for its detail of the Chesapeake Bay, which Smith himself explored by longboat. The map's detail is so singularly exact that it became the prototype for most later maps of the region until Augustine Herman's great 1673 map Virginia and Maryland. The indication of a large body of water at the upper right of the map signals a large driving force in the formation of the Virginia colony: the persistent belief that a sea route to Asia lay just beyond the mountains. In 1608 Smith spent some months exploring the Chesapeake Bay and the various rivers that fed into it. The extent of his survey is depicted on the map with crosses on the rivers. A key states, "To the crosses hath been discoverd what beyond is by relation." One year later Smith returned to England after sustaining a serious gunpowder wound to his side; he was never to see Virginia again. Nonetheless, his role was vital in ensuring the success of the Jamestown colony, and his map was instrumental in making the geography surrounding the fragile settlement known to Europeans.

This masterful and beautiful map, based on one publisher by Claus Janszoon Visscher in the mid-1650s, was a seminal moment in the cartography of New England and New York. With its inset view of New York it showed educated Europeans what New Amsterdam looked like and also provided them with a remarkably precise idea of its geographic context. Based probably on a prototype by Augustine Hermann, the map was first published by Jan Jansson in 1650, without the view. Visscher brought out his own version around 1654, which included the famous inset view of the town. Taken from Governor's Island, southeast of Manhattan, the view is a somewhat idealized but generally accurate look at New Amsterdam just 25 years or so after its initial settlement. Information about the time when various buildings were erected suggests a probable date for the inset view between autumn 1652 and summer 1653.

This is the most famous map by celebrated French cartographer Guillaume De Lisle. The accuracy of De Lisle's cartography accounts for its primacy, as he obtained his information directly from French explorers. One of the first printed maps to name Texas, it was a seminal depiction of the Mississippi that was enormously influential on subsequent cartography of the region. Indeed, Kohl states this is the mother and main source of all later maps of the Mississippi. This map was the first to reflect accurately the routes of Hernando de Soto, Henry de Tonty, and Louis de St. Denis. Because of its accurate information on the Mississippi and its tributaries, this map served throughout the eighteenth century as the prototype for most subsequent renderings of that great river.

This elegant Revolutionary War-era British military map is the most important eighteenth-century chart of Narraganset Bay. Showing both topographical and hydrographical detail, the map was the result of a survey by Charles Blaskowitz, a skilled British military surveyor who was assigned by Samuel Holland in 1764 to chart the coast of Rhode Island to determine if the harbor of Newport could be used as a British naval base. Blaskowitz later seems to have been commissioned by an additional party to survey the area, for the title of his map notes that it was "taken by the order of the principal farmers on Rhode Island." There is some evidence that Blaskowitz was paid by the Rhode Island farmers to create a map for their purposes in 1771, which he then simply redrew, adding the positions of the defensive batteries, and sold to the British in 1777. In either case, this map was published in London by William Faden, the successor of Thomas Jefferys, in that year.

Jacques Le Moyne de Morgues, a French artist living in Elizabethan England, specialized in naturalistic florilegia. While living in Blackfriars, London during the 16th century, Le Moyne painted dozens of plants and animals native to English gardens; however, his work remained largely undiscovered until the 20th century. These meticulous recreations of Le Moyne's watercolor and gouache pieces highlight the balance between science and art during the sixteenth century.

Jacques Le Moyne de Morgues, a French artist living in Elizabethan England, specialized in naturalistic florilegia. While living in Blackfriars, London during the 16th century, Le Moyne painted dozens of plants and animals native to English gardens; however, his work remained largely undiscovered until the 20th century. These meticulous recreations of Le Moyne's watercolor and gouache pieces highlight the balance between science and art during the sixteenth century.

François Nicolas Martinet (1725-1804), a French artist living during the late Enlightenment Era, blends science with art in his numerous works. His passion for ornithology led him to collaborate with several notable natural historians, including Georges-Louis Leclerc, Count of Buffon. Martinet created a total of one thousand eight prints for Buffon's extensive Histoire Naturelle des Oiseaux, from which the plates in this collection derive. Depicting birds in their natural habitats, the plates began as copperplate engravings and later received color from an unknown colorist, possibly Martinet himself. These avian prints emphasize scientific accuracy and natural beauty.

Between the 15th and 18th centuries, European nations seeking to expand their empires sent missions to every corner of the globe, gathering information and establishing colonies. The voyages during the so-called "Age of Exploration" were primarily money-making ventures, but they also sought to provide scientific information about areas new to Europeans.

Each voyage included a court-appointed artist to record exploration findings. Responsible for cataloging every detail of the destination, the artists brought back depictions of the land, the people and their customs, and flora and fauna native to the area. The pieces established a visual testimony to accompany written accounts created by expedition leaders.

The Picturing the World collection illustrates the scientific history of the age of European empire through prints of flora, fauna, and maps.
