Beautiful hand-colored, engraved 1774 Cellarius Map - "Veteris Orbis Climata ex Strabone" in nice frame. Christoph Keller (Cellarius) was an early believer in the power of maps to help sell books.

His'Geographia Antiqua' was so popular that its publication spanned three centuries from 1686 to 1812 and different maps were used for many editions. This map of the Ancient World comes from a 1774 edition of that work. It names the ancient regions - Ethiopia, Aegyptus, Mauretania, Hispania, Germania, Albion, Sarmatia, Scythia, India, Persia, Arabia Felix, Syria, Asia Minor, Serica; the map reflects the knowledge of the ancient geographers, tfore many areas are highly distorted or unknown. The map measures 8" by 11.5" (on larger paper) with a centrefold (as issued), has later outline hand colouring, and is in very good condition not examined out of the very nice 22x18 frame.

The map is guaranteed to be over 230 years old. This item is in the category "Antiques\Maps, Atlases & Globes\Celestial Maps". The seller is "storypod" and is located in this country: US.
