DESCRIPTION: This map is a finely crafted double hemisphere representation of the world, originally included in Tardieu's "Atlas pour Servir a l'Intelligence de l'Histoire Generale des Voyages de Laharpe." The atlas, designed to clarify and support Laharpe's comprehensive historical accounts of global explorations, features detailed geographic depictions. The double hemisphere format of the map allows for a simultaneous view of the Eastern and Western Hemispheres, providing a clear and balanced perspective of the Earth as understood during the time of its creation. This format is particularly useful for emphasizing the global scope of Laharpe's explorations and the interconnectedness of the world's continents and oceans.
ADDITIONAL INFO: This piece is in a 18 x 23.25 inch archival mylar for handling.
