Amsterdam, c.1734. Original outline colour. Two sheets conjoined, total 510 x 905mm.
A very fine example.
A very fine example of this scarce large sea chart of Sicily (although more map-like than van Keulen's usual output, with the island's interior shown in great detail), printed across two sheets, with the uncommon additional plate with nine plans and profiles of Sicilian ports.
Being such a large chart it is unusual to find examples in such good condition.
