Description:
|
|
Charming map of the Kingdom of Prussia covering northern Poland, Kaliningrad, and the Baltic coast of Lithuania. Based on a map first issued by Pieter van der Aa in 1713, but here republished in Amsterdam by the firm of Covens & Mortier.
The map is decorated with a large panoramic title cartouche which likely depicts the important trading city of Danzig (Gdansk).
Original hand colour. [POL1032] |
