Lovely, large map of the Holy Land that has an inset map showing the Wandering of the Children of Israel titled "Carte de la Terre de Canaan ou Terre Promise…" The map is filled with fine detail and ornamented with two elaborate cartouches.

References: Laor #667; Pedley #393.

Condition: B+

A velvety impression on a sheet with some toning on the centerfold, and a few creases. A repaired tear in the left margin is well away from the map.

Estimate: $350 - $400
