    A quadrangulation is a planar map with four vertices incident to any face. Pendant vertices (with degree 1) are not allowed. A random quadrangulation is assumed to be uniformly distributed over the set of all rooted quadrangulations with \(n\) faces. Using a bijection between planar maps and certain labeled trees, it is shown that there holds a convergence in distribution to a Brownian map for \(n\) tending towards infinity.
