- Unframed.
A large and detailed set of charts of the Mediterranean Sea, engraved by Dheulland for the Depot de la Marine, and published as both separate sheets (priced at 50 Sols each) and as part of Jacques-Nicolas Bellin's "Neptune Francois" sea atlas.
The western sheet shows from Gibraltar to Corsica and Sardinia with the corresponding coast of Africa; the second Corsica and Sardinia, Italy and Greece; and the third Greece, Turkey, Cyprus and the Holy Land and Egypt.
As the mapping on the sheets overlap and they have borders with graduated longitude and latitude scales, the map is not suitable for joining.
