Description:
|
|
| Beautiful uncoloured copper-engraved map of Norway with a decorative title cartouche depicting a sailor and a fur trader beside the coat of arms of Norway. Though the shape of Norway is quite misshapen, van der Aa does include a great deal of detail about the rivers, lakes, and settlements in the interior of the country. Strong impression. [SCAN2256] |
