Product Description
Not dated but early 19th century. Size: 52.3cm x 59.2cm. Includes the north coast of Africa and the Barbary Coast and numerous towns and cities. Stretched and pinned to a contemporary pine frame. Has some age-spotting to the edges with lesser amounts on the embroidered areas. Wear is present to the top left corner with some loss to the material, not affecting the embroidery and a very small amount of wear is present in the North Sea just below the Isles of Luffoden. A good example of an early 19th European map sampler. Scarce.
