Copenhagen Denmark City Harbor View Sailing Ships 1798 engraved print

View of the City of Copenhagen the Capital of Denmark

(Old Prints, 18th Century Prints, Europe, Denmark, Copenhagen, City View, Sailing Ships, Harbor View)

Issued 1798, London by The Lady's Magazine

Fine and attractive original old 18th century engraved panoramic birds-eye city view with lovely hand color. Most charming rendering showing ships in the harbor, near primitive folk-art style. A very uncommon view, perfect item as a gift given the unique quality, rarity- it's also highly likely the person will not already own it, even if they collect in this area.

Map remains well preserved. Some light age wear or surface spotting/ soiling which is visible within the scan, some minor old binding stitch holes along the middle bottom edge in the blank margin, tiny loss of paper at top left corner scarcely worthy of concern. Paper and image remains overall clean & sound, view will look fantastic displayed.

Great old vintage antique map entirely worthy of hanging for display.

A cartographic depiction captured in a manner entirely unique to this era.
