Copper etching in modern hand coloring. An attractive map showing the Maldives. The area shown reaches from the Laquedives in the north to Pora Moluque in the south. Map has overall light toning. In the upper left corner are some small holes the size of pinpoints.
Light water stain in lower right corner barely affecting image.
Condition is otherwise Almost Very Good. Copper etching by Bellin. This map includes much more than present-day India. In the lower left is a mileage chart in the Arabian Sea. The cartouche is in the area of Tibet.
