A New Map of PIEDMONT, the DUCHIES of SAVOYand MILAN and the REPUBLIC of GENOA; with their subdivisions. From the latest Authorities.

Clear and accurate map of early nineteenth century Piedmont, coloured by region. Piedmont covered the borderlands between France and Italy, an area roughly bounded by Geneva, Nice, Milan and Genoa. Five scales at lower right, title at lower left. John Cary was considered 'the most representative, able and prolific of English cartographers'. Tooley says, 'As an engraver he was elegant and exact with fine clear lettering and great delicacy of touch'. When the Ordnance Survey began accurately mapping the UK, they used John Cary's style as the basis for their work.

Some staining to margins. Very good condition.
