Geographic Atlas compiled under the direction of the Royal Council 1826

Description

This 1826 geographical atlas, compiled under the direction of the Royal Council, stands as a historical testament to the cartographic knowledge of its time. Produced in an in-folio format, it gathers detailed maps of continents, kingdoms, and world regions, reflecting the explorations and geopolitical boundaries of the era. Printed with care for 19th-century publication, the work features a contemporary half-sheepskin binding with leather corners, marbled edges, and marbled endpapers. Its overall condition remains good, despite minor rubbing and slight wear to the headbands, making it a desirable piece for collectors of antique maps and cartographic history.
