About the Item
1700 Guillaume Delisle Map: Western Mediterranean & Moorish North Africa
This hand-colored map from 1700 by Guillaume Delisle, titled "In Notitiam Ecclesiasticam Africae Tabula Geographica," offers a detailed look at the regions under Moorish control during the later medieval period.
It encompasses the northern African coast from Morocco to Libya, the Iberian Peninsula, and the western Mediterranean, including notable islands such as Sardinia, Corsica, Malta, the Balearics, and Sicily, where a smoking Mount Etna is depicted.
The map is embellished with three decorative cartouches, adding artistic flair to the detailed geographical renderings.
Engraved by Jean Baptiste Liebaux, the map measures 25.2 inches wide by 19.1 inches high.
It features a sharp impression with contemporary outline color, later enhanced cartouches, and is printed on a bright sheet with a Society of Jesus watermark.
The condition is very good, with an archivally repaired centerfold separation at the bottom and light toning along the edges.
