Condition: Fine. This eye catching copperplate engraved map covers portions of Greece and Asia Minor, and was published by Covens & Mortier in Amsterdam in 1725. It's based on an earlier issue by the influential French cartographer Guillame Delisle, who is duly credited in the title block. The map presents a historical account of the eastern portion of the Roman Empire (it had not yet split), apparently during the rule of Emperor Trajan (c. 110 AD). Trajan presided over a number of successful campaigns in the region during his reign, which saw the empire reach its maximum territorial expansion. Sheet Width (in) 25.5 Sheet Height (in) 21.5 Condition Description Slight waviness to the sheet and a bit of extraneous vertical creasing. Creased upper right corner, one small spot in the Black Sea, and one small spot near the scale. The map has a dark impression and bright hand color that really makes it pop from the sheet. Fine watermarked paper with wide margins. Near fine condition overall.

Condition: Fine. Originally designed by Nicholas Sanson (who is duly credited in the colorful title cartouche), this map was published by the famed firm of Covens & Mortier in Amsterdam around the year 1700. It shows the area from the Straits of Gibraltar to the Middle East and the Red Sea to the Baltic, displaying topographical details, cities, and regional information. Various colors on the map are generally representative of the areas under the authority of the Christian patriarchs. Rome (light green), Alexandria (yellow) and Antioch (dark green) were original apostolic sees organized in the first century AD. Constantinople (red) and Jerusalem (orange) were added in the 4th and 5th centuries to form the Pentarchy - the governing body of the early Christian church. Infighting, political strain and religious differences between the patriarchs eventually led to the East-West Schism and the break between Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Christianity. Sheet Width (in) 23.5 Sheet Height (in) 20.6 Condition Description The map is in excellent condition, published on laid paper with old body and cartouche color. Some toning, but otherwise superb condition.
