Item description from seller

The map provided is of the province of Huesca, located in the northeastern part of Spain, within the autonomous community of Aragon, as of the year 1901. Here are some of the key features depicted on the map: The map illustrates the province's varied topography, including the Pyrenees mountains along the northern border with France. Blue lines represent rivers and lakes, likely including the Ebro River basin, which is significant in the region. Red lines indicate roads and railways, showing the infrastructure that connects Huesca's towns and cities both internally and with neighboring regions. Various symbols denote the locations of cities, towns, and villages, with the capital city, also named Huesca, presumably highlighted. The coat of arms of Huesca is prominently displayed, reflecting the historical significance of the region with symbols such as the bell and the cross.
