Laurie & Whittle - Map of the East Indies and lower Asia
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 archival tape to verso edges of the upper horizontal folds where there is some separation as well as a couple spots at the cetner vertical fold. 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.
~ 23 1/2" by 28 1/2" (Fold Out)
