From John Senex's very rare 'English Atlas' first issued from about 1710 as a collection of maps but not with a title page until 1714. As can be seen by the date of 1708 on this map they were in preparation for some time before. 'Senex was an engraver and map seller, later cultivating his scientific interests as a maker of instruments and globes. In the early part of his career from about 1706 to 1711, he was in association with the London publisher Charles Price and together they produced sets of large (double-folio) sized maps ... The partnership ... split up in 1710.' (Shirley). This map of Artois in northern France displays the region in great detail and takes in Abbeville, Boulogne, Calais, Dunkirk and Lille. Shirley T.Sen 1c no. 11.
