Bernard Jaillot (1649–1739) was a prominent French cartographer and engraver active in Paris during the late 17th and early 18th centuries. He is best known for modernizing and republishing the works of Nicolas Sanson, one of France's leading cartographers, enhancing their detail and presentation. Jaillot's high-quality maps and atlases were valued for their accuracy and elegance, serving both scholars and government officials. His collaboration with family members and dedication to cartographic excellence solidified his legacy in the history of French cartography.
