Mediterranean | Nautical Chart | 1829

Reproduction of a large-format, finely engraved nautical chart of the Eastern Mediterranean from 1829. It is labeled in French and titled “Carte réduite de la partie orientale de la Méditerranée”. The map covers the area from Greece across the Aegean Sea, Asia Minor (Anatolia), and the Levantine coast (modern-day Syria/Lebanon/Israel) to Egypt. The map covers the area from Greece across the Aegean Sea, Asia Minor (Anatolia), and the Levantine coast (modern-day Syria/Lebanon/Israel) to Egypt. Particularly detailed are: coastlines (with shading for relief), island groups (Cyclades, Dodecanese, Crete, Cyprus), ports, shoals, and navigational aids. A graticule (latitude and longitude lines) covers the map → typical for nautical precision. The focus is clearly on seafaring and navigation, not on political borders.

Historical maps show traces of time and use, the intensity and nature of which vary depending on the map and its intended purpose. The print offered is a reproduction.
