Handsome map of Syria and Lebanon, fully engraved with mountain ranges, forests and cities. Damascus is at the bottom of the map and Edessa (Şanlıurfa) is at the top. The coastal cities include Alexandria, Antioch, Tyro, Tripoli, Sidon, and Curco. The map is embellished with a fine strapwork title cartouche flanked by a shepherd and his flock, a scale of miles held aloft by three cherubs, a sailing ship, compass rose and a sea monster.
