antique map authentic
engraving intaglio from 1809 representing an antique map entitled: "Northern Africa". Formerly published in an atlas by malte-brun and drawn up by Lapie. Borders and geographical limits enhanced with colors. This is a Map of North Africa including regions such as the Sahara, the Mediterranean coast and part of sub-Saharan Africa. The engraving is broken down into a single Map with a decorative cartouche located at the top right framed by a plant garland. In 1809, the region mapped corresponds to northern Africa known at the time for its vast deserts such as the Sahara and for being an area of ​​strategic interest between the colonizing European powers. The borders represented are those known before decolonization, thus reflecting the geographical knowledge and territorial divisions of the early 19th century.
