Item description from seller

Very good. Wear along original fold lines. Light soiling. Blank on verso. Size 16.5 x 21 Inches. This is an 1823 Vandermeren city map or plan of Rome, Italy. The map depicts the city from the Tiber River to the Circus Varianus and from the Piazza del Popolo to the Porta San Sebastiano, a gate along the Appian Way in the Aurelian Walls surrounding the city. Vatican City is also illustrated and is situated on the upper left near the Castel Sant'Angelo. Myriad locations throughout the city are labeled, including the Baths of Caracalla (labeled here as Terme Antoniniane), the Circus Maximus, and the Piazza di Spagna. Over 230 other sites, both ancient and modern, are numerically identified and correspond to fourteen different lists situated around the map itself. As the map is divided into fourteen different regions, these lists range from five sites to over forty. Numerous streets are identified, including the famous Appian Way (Via Appia). Census and Publication History This map was published to accompany Joseph Gaume's (1802 - 1879) Les trois Rome. Journal d'un voyage en Italie . It is not clear if this map accompanied all editions of the book. Examples of the separate issue map are extremely scarce. We are unaware of any other examples of Vandermeren's edition of this map, but we have seen an 1847 edition published by P. Bineteau in the collection of the Bibliothèque Nationale de France and we previously possessed an 1852 edition that was published by Joseph Manz. References: Rumsey 13006.034.…
