This mid-eighteenth-century copperplate engraved map, created by the renowned French hydrographer Jacques-Nicolas Bellin in 1757, provides a detailed geographic overview of Acadia (present-day Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and parts of Prince Edward Island) and neighboring maritime regions. Published during the Seven Years' War, the map delineates vital coastal configurations, harbors, rivers, and settlements across the Bay of Fundy ('Baye Francoise'), Prince Edward Island ('Isle Saint Jean'), and Cape Breton Island ('Isle Royale'). Prominently featured are key strategic sites including Louisbourg, Port Royal ('Annapolis Royal'), and Halifax, reflecting the intense geopolitical rivalry between France and Great Britain for control of North America. Annotations such as 'Bancs de l'Acadie ou la Pesche est tres bonne' emphasize the immense economic value of the Atlantic fisheries. The lower right corner is anchored by a charming rococo cartouche enclosing the map's title and scale, produced for Abbé Prévost's monumental publication 'Histoire Générale des Voyages'.
