AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Second edition, illustrated with 31 double-page plates mounted on tabs, including 29 maps and plans (16 fold-outs), of which 11 are enhanced in color; the first edition dates from 1788. Forty-one pages for the analysis of the maps.
An excellent example. Complete.
The atlas, which, in addition to the colored map of Greater Greece and its islands, provides maps of the different provinces, the plan of Athens, the elevation of major monuments (Parthenon, Greek theater, Greek house...), and some major battles. It was originally designed to accompany the Voyage of Young Anacharsis by Abbé Barthélémy, a romantic fantasy of a young philosopher traveling through ancient Greece in the 4th century BC. It was sold separately or with the collection of the five volumes of the novel.
