A propos de cet article

This attractive map of Ireland divides the Emerald Isle into its four traditional provinces, in place since the late 17th century; Connacht, Leinster, Munster, and Ulster. Further ecclesiastical organization is also shown and explained in a text box in the lower right. The map also includes simple pictorial topography, a double scale, and a decorative rococo cartouche identifying the maps' creators; Brion de la Tour and Charles Desnos. French text has been affixed to either side, providing information on the country's history, geography, and political organization. Sheet Width (in) 20.1 Sheet Height (in) 13.2 Condition Description Moderate discoloration, soiling, and a few wormholes along the vertical centerfold. The outer letterpress panels have been pasted somewhat haphazardly. Good to very good condition overall, with original hand color.
