  • the Island City & Port of Cadis.

    A wonderfully primitive map for Cadiz and environs, showing the basic configuration for the city's defensive walls, some key buildings, and the bay. But also includes some interesting practical notations for the nearby lands such as where to find "Salt Pitts", and in present day San Fernando a simple notation can be seen saying, "Here Grows the Best Wine of Spain", just above the Island of St. Peter. Complimented by an attractive decorative cartouche.

    Condition is good light even toning to the sheet. Image size is approximately 6.25 x 5.25 (inches), on a sheet measuring 12 x 7.5 (inches).
