Description:

FULL TITLE:Carte du royaume d'Angleterre, divisee en ses principales provinces

A detailed map of England and Wales divided into their various counties. The engraver has marked the Greenwich meridian.

This map was included in an uncommon miniature atlas measuring 10.5 cm by 6,5 cm (approx). In order to fit within the covers it was folded three times. Through successive unfolding and refolding the paper suffered slight damage at one or two of the intersections. A professional restorer has repaired the damage without loss. At the same time the image was de-acified, cleaned and pressed.
