Sea chart of the western Mediterranean from Cadiz in Spain to the mouth of the Tiber, showing the coasts of Spain, France, Italy and north Africa.The chart has actually been used, as is shown by the neatly pencilled route plotted around Sardinia. Rhumb lines criss-cross the map, title cartouche at top left with three scales.

A few sporadic spots, but a very clean, crisp engraving. Wide margins. Very good condition.
