AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This Folio-sized geographical map is an original double copper engraving from 1787.

This is the edition of BONNE & DESMAREST, published in 1787 in their Atlas, which bears the title: 'Atlas Encyclopédique, contenant la géographie ancienne, et quelques cartes sur la géographie moderne, et les cartes relatives à la géographie physique......PARIS, 1787.'

Beautiful double map (on 2 sheets), published in Paris, with excellent coloring, wide margins (not trimmed at the time), and geographically well detailed at every point.
