THE EMPIRE'S BORDERS
Heinrich Kiepert (1818-1899) chooses to represent the military borders of the empire where legions were stationed to guard the Limes, excluding client kingdoms and protectorates led by kings considered "friends of the Roman people."
Francesco Vallardi (1809-1895) was an important 19th-century Italian engraver, publisher, and cartographer. Belonging to a family of Milanese publishers, Vallardi is known for his cartographic works.

Our reproductions are extremely faithful to the original and printed on precious Amalfi paper.
It is a paper composed exclusively of cotton fibers, thick and naturally porous, yet soft to the touch, with characteristic frayed edges that attest to its artisanal craftsmanship.
It is still made today according to ancient medieval techniques, in the workshops of Amalfi.
