A scarce sea chart of Barcelona Harbour
£300
In stock
An uncommon chart of the harbour of Barcelona, engraved by Louis Corne for Ayrouard's 'Recueil de Plusiers Plans des Ports et Rades et de Quelque Cartes Particulieres de la Mer Mediterranée'.
What little is known about Ayrouard comes from the text of this sea atlas: he describes himself as 'Royal pilot of the King's Galleys', who drew these charts on voyages undertaken in this role. The engraver, Louis Corne, is not known to have worked on any other maps other than this series.
