In den WarenkorbVery good. Minor foxing and overall toning. Minor edge wear. Size 13 x 15.5 Inches. A fine example of S. A. Mitchell's 1849 map of Turkey in Asia. Centered on the Holy Land, this map covers the Asian territories claimed by the Turkish Ottoman Empire. These include the modern day countries of Turkey, Cyprus, Syria, Jordan, Lebano…n, and Iraq. An inset in the lower left quadrant details the environs of Constantinople and the Bosporus Straits. The important caravan route from to Rosrah, on the Persian Gulf, is noted. Political and topographical features are noted and color coded with elevation rendered by hachure. The whole is engraved and colored in Mitchell's distinctive style with green border work and vivid pastels. Mitchell published this chart in his atlas from 1846 to the late 1850s before discontinuing the series and selling his map plates to DeSilver. This map was issued in the 1849 edition of the New Universal Atlas . It was the last edition of that atlas to be published by Mitchell prior to selling the plates and rights to the atlas to Thomas Cowperthwait in 1850. References: Rumsey 0545.069.
