Alps - RAYMOND (J.B.). Physical and mineralogical map of Mon - Lot 151
Alps - RAYMOND (J.B.). Physical and mineralogical map of Mont-Blanc and the surrounding mountains and valleys, dedicated and presented to His Excellency the Count House, Governor of Paris, Peer of France. Paris, Picquet, [c. 1815]. Folded canvas map (unfolded size: 61.5 x 88 cm), watercoloured, with an engraved view of Mont Blanc in cartouche in the upper right corner, in a case with a title page. This map was made during the years 1797, 1798 and 1799. The author spared no care or work to obtain the greatest accuracy. Special circumstances have delayed its publication; it is especially intended to serve as a complement to Mr. de Saussure's travels in the Alps, and for the benefit of travellers visiting the glaciers of Chamonix. Very good ex.
