Janvier, Robert (Jean)
1746 – 1776
Working in Paris in the
second half of the eighteenth century, Jean Janvier (1746 – 1776)
produced a series of maps in the later half of the century. While
there is some confusion about his Christian name, his maps usually were
inscribed “Le Sieur Janvier”. He is best known for his collaboration
with engraver Jean Lattre for an Atlas Moderne first released in 1762
and in several later editions some by C. F. Delamarche and by Chez
Remondini. He also produced several maps used in general atlases by
William Fadan and P. Santini.
