Description:
|
|
Elegant map of the Balearic Islands (Mallorca, Menorca, and Ibiza) with inset maps of the port of Mahon and the Western Mediterranean. This map was copied almost directly by Matthaus Seutter from the French hydrographer J.N. Bellin’s chart of the same region. The panel of text below the map explains the sources for Bellin’s map and how it differs from earlier maps.
