Laurie & Whittle - Map of Europe
This exceptional map is from the very handsome atlas entitled A New and Elegant Imperial Sheet Atlas; Comprehending general and particular maps of every part of the world... The work was published by Robert Holmes Laurie and James Whittle in London in 1814. Each engraving has original hand-coloring and is on a large fold out sheet. The maps are after the work of cartographers d'Anville, Dunn, Jefferys, Kitchin and others.
The work is in good to excellent condition overall. There is some minor chipping at the edges. There is some separation of the paper at the lower fold. There is a light crease or indention to the left of the fold to near the center of the image. There is a small ink mark to the right of the fold near the center of the image. There may be some faint offset or minor imperfections to be expected with age. Please review the image carefully for condition and contact us with any questions.
~ 20 1/2" by 28 1/2" (Fold Out)
