Original Hand-Colored Antique Map of Tartary and Northern India
About the Item
The antique map titled "Carte de la partie meridionale de la tartarie avec la p.tie septentrionale de l'nde" was crafted by Louis Brion de la Tour, a prominent French cartographer, and geographer in the 18th century. The map translates to "Map of the Southern Part of Tartary with the Northern Part of India."
Brion de la Tour was known for his meticulous cartographic skills and contributed significantly to the geographical knowledge of his time. This particular map, created during the 18th century, presents a depiction of the southern portion of Tartary, an ancient region in northern and central Asia, alongside the northern part of India.
As with many maps of that era, it likely features details on geographical boundaries, topographical features, major cities, rivers, and possibly cultural or historical notations relevant to the regions depicted. Brion de la Tour's maps were renowned for their accuracy and aesthetic appeal, often incorporating artistic elements along with precise cartographic information.
This specific map would have provided invaluable geographical knowledge and served as a significant reference tool for explorers, traders, and scholars of the time, shedding light on the territories of Tartary and northern India during the 18th century.
