A Series of Historical Maps of Italian Cities
About the Item
Vintage maps can add so much interest to a space and this group of Italian maps is particularly interesting. Each is a charming reinterpretation of historical city maps (Rome, Venice and Florence). We love them for their soft, beautiful coloring and their unusual size. The maps not only depict the layout of each city, but also offer a glimpse into the way of life in each city by illustrating the people, the waterways, the vegetation, buildings and animals. Each could stand on its own, but they also look lovely in a grouping. Please note these are priced individually.

Map of Vusihyen, Hu Chew Fu and Hou-Tcheou-Fou, Historical Chinese Cities, 1754
Located in Langweer, NL
Given these specific names—Vusihyen, Hu Chew Fu, and Hou-Tcheou-Fou—it appears that the map depicts historical Chinese locations. These names are likely transliterations of Chinese names from the period. "Hu Chew Fu" might be an old Western spelling for what is known in modern pinyin as Huzhou, a city near Lake Tai in China. "Hou-Tcheou-Fou" could refer to a historical name for another city or region, also located in China.
