Old physical map of the New World — Pacific Ocean, Americas

Authentic antique physical map of the New World, a period piece of striking beauty and rarity. Centre on the vastness of the Pacific Ocean, it reveals with remarkable cartographic precision the underwater reliefs, the Pacific archipelagos, the American and Australian coasts, as well as the major mountain ranges of the Americas — including the majestic Andes. The rendering in shades of blue for the ocean depths and warm tones for the continental reliefs makes it a visually enchanting work, both scientific and aesthetic. The trilingual legends — French, English, and Spanish — testify to an exceptional international edition. A rare and spectacular piece, ideal for framing in large format to adorn a living room, office, or library with character and elegance. Condition: Superb state of preservation — the colour gradients remain intense and precise, providing a remarkable visual presence for a piece of this age. Delivery: The map will be carefully protected and packaged with the utmost care to ensure it arrives in perfect condition. Available for free collection in Paris and Lyon.
