Each detail is meticulously hand-drawn, capturing not only geographical accuracy but also artistic flair.
Displayed in the Municipal Library of Marseille, this piece is a true testament to the skill and dedication of early mapmakers. The vibrant colors and delicate lines transport viewers back in time to an era when exploration and discovery were at their peak.
