Information

178x146 mm
An undated 19th-century manuscript, in a modern, plain gray hardback binding. The text is preceded by a hand-drawn, watercolored bust of Ptolemy in an oval frame, with an illegible signature. A card with a poem ("Le Mademoiselle Grouax"?) is inserted between pages 8 and 9. A small plate from an 18th-century geographical work depicting ancient Spain (Typus Hispaniae veteris) is inserted between pages 12 and 13. Finally, another small 18th-century geographical plate depicting ancient France (Galliae veteris descriptio) is inserted between pages 18 and 19. A very good copy.

Specialist Notes

Written entirely by the same person in French, the text deals initially with cosmography, then with geography in general, then with Spain and finally with France.
