Title: Carte de la Souabe de la Suisse et du Piemont
Description: It is an original engraved antique map in excellent condition with the plate mark indentions clearly shown in the margins. It is designed by A.H. Dufour and published in Thiers Atlas de L'Histoire du Consulat et de L'Empire (Paris: Paulin, 1859). The map itself is well documented on the map: the title of the atlas appears in the upper left margin, the title in the top center, the plate number in the upper right, the designer Dufour's name in the bottom left, the publisher Paulin's name in bottom center and the engraver Dyonnet in the bottom right. A copy of the title page with the date is also included for authenticity. This series of maps were designed to illustrate the terrain of the battles of the Napoleonic campaigns. They are very detailed in terms of the topography and are generally focused around a particular region, battlefield or campaign, although military positions are generally not shown. They are not matted nor mounted, individual sheets only. These are fairly rare and early in date for this degree of detail, published without a centerfold: usually they were folded in half for the later publication, so these are exceptionally nice for framing or research.
Size: The map image measures approximately 8 by 9 inches on a 10 1/2 by 17" page with a margin all around for framing as seen in the pic.
Condition: The map is in Very Good to Excellent condition, a nice dark impression printed on a bright clean page, blank on the reverse side. The map is very clean with no defects to mention other than the occassional random small spot in the margins if one looks really close. See the pics for a view of the entire map and details.
