1889 Map of Italy in 3D Relief
About the Item
Introducing a true gem for collectors and history enthusiasts alike: this rare 1889 *"Italia in Rilievo"* map by L. Roux & Co. from Torino, a masterpiece of craftsmanship and cartography. Measuring 54 x 59 cm / 21.259 x 23.228 inches, this embossed map showcases Italy’s topography in stunning 3D relief, allowing you to feel the mountainous terrain of the Alps and the rolling hills of the peninsula.
What sets this map apart is its meticulous detailing, from the intricately embossed geographical features to the highlighted railways that crossed the Alps—a symbol of Italy’s industrial and cultural expansion during the late 19th century. Created by the renowned lithographers *Lit. B. Marchisio e Figli*, the map is not just an educational piece but also an artistic triumph.
Despite being 125 years old, this map is in remarkably good condition, making it a rare and valuable addition to any collection. Perfect for framing and display, it serves as a striking historical artifact and conversation piece, embodying Italy’s geographical beauty and historical significance.
Don’t miss the opportunity to own a piece of Italian and cartographic history—this exceptional map is a true collector’s item!
