Carte de la Grece anciene et moderne.
Issued France (Toulouse), 1788. Engraved by Faure.
Scarce little decorative 18th century map when found so attractive. Cartouche title lower right with banners and flags.
A visually pleasing example, old staining at left side (virtually disappears if map is framed to neat lines), slight rumpling along fold lines, edges, darkened in spots, lovely hand coloring, overall map displays an entirely pleasing age patina.
Sheet size c. 6 1/2" H x 8 3/8" W.
Engraved area c. 5 1/2" H x 6 3/4" W.
Pictures show this scarce little late 18th century map well. Please review them carefully at your leisure so you may clearly see what you are buying.
