This refined map of the Duchies of Savoy, Milan, and the Republic of Genoa, created by John Cary, offers a detailed representation of northwestern Italy at the turn of the 1 8th and 19th centuries. Hand-colored by province, it shows roads, rivers, lakes, mountain ranges, and inhabited centers with extraordinary precision. It is a perfect example of the elegance and clarity that characterize Cary's distinctive style, considered one of the foremost exponents of British cartography of the era.
Cary was a central figure in the development of modern cartographic publishing, known for the quality of his engravings and significant collaborations in the scientific and geographical fields. This map is a collector's item that reflects the enlightened vision of an era where art and science met in cartography. Ideal for scholars, history enthusiasts, or anyone desiring a piece of furniture rich in historical charm.
