Russia Siberia Alaska Arctic Sea North Pole 1830 Langlois scarce antique map

Russie D'Asie ou Siberie

(Asian Russia- Siberia- Russia in Europe- Alaska- Ocean Glacial Arctique- Empire Chinois- Chinese Empire)

Issued 1830, Paris by Langlois

Very uncommon early 19th century antique engraved map, with original outline hand color.

Shows several territorial districts/ Governments of Siberia, coast of Alaska is shown in some detail at top right. If you collect early pre-statehood maps depicting Alaska, you quite likely don't own this one.

As originally issued long ago, an actual antique/ vintage printed sheet of paper, not a modern copy or reprint. The paper sheet could show various minor signs of age, but if we are offering it for sale, you can be 100% certain it is entirely worthy of ownership by even the most discerning collector or dealer.

Sheet remains well preserved, keeping in mind it is not modern or new, so minor flaws to paper unworthy of specific mention are sometimes to be expected. Some light age wear or surface spotting/ soiling, all of which is hopefully visible within the zoomable scan.

Paper and image remains overall clean & sound. Old maps & prints often display small minor repairs on the back, could have uneven blank margins, might have extraneous fold-lines or other small minor age flaws which do not detract from the visual appeal or value. Condition is carefully considered in arriving at our price.

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

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

Sheet measures c.  11 3/4" H x  17" W.

Printed area measures c. 10" H x  13 1/2" W
