Charles François Delamarche (1740 - 1817) was a French geographer and cartographer. He was one of the most important French geographers and cartographers of the second half of the eighteenth century. Successor of Nicolas Sanson (1600-1667), Robert de Vaugondy (1686-1766) and Rigobert Bonne (1727-1794), he reprinted the atlases. He devoted himself to teaching geography. Among his works, in addition to the globes cards, there is a treatise on the use of the sphere, celestial and terrestrial globes (Traité de la sphère et de l'usage des globes, 179), in which he illustrates, in addition to the Ptolemaic system, including the Copernican system, also enumerating all the ancient and modern constellations. His son Félix (18th century-first half 19th century) continued his work.
