Kingdom of Burgundy Southern France Aquitaine Dauphine 1719 Mallet map

Royaume de Bourgogne sous la Seconde Race de Roys de France.

(Europe, Historical Map, Kingdom of Burgundy, Kingdom of France, Dauphine, Aquitaine, Franche Comte, Burgundy).

Issued 1719, Frankfurt for A.M. Mallet. 

Charming 18th century copper engraved map with lovely hand color.

The image has a near folk-art feel, a style unique to this historical era. Utterly unlike anything produced today and of modern aesthetic appeal for this reason.

Mostly clean and well preserved example, the image displays a fine patina.

Sheet measures c. 7 7/8" H x 5 7/8" W.

Printed area measures c. 5 1/2" H x 4" W.
