Splendid chart of the southern coast of Spain, the Balearic islands and North Africa. Title cartouche with decorated frame at upper left. Stamp of ‘Deposito de la Marina’ at top left. Tofino(1732-1795) is the best known Spanish Marine cartographer. His Atlas Maritimo established the prime meridian (0degrees) at Cadiz rather than Greenwich.
Very good condition. Some expert repairs to lower edge.
