Description: Africa Congo 1719 Nubia Angola Sahara Desert Lake Zaire Guinea Mallet map Congo: das Land Congo. (Old Maps, 18th Century Maps, Africa, West Africa, Congo, Angola, Guinea, Lake Zaire, Biafra, Kingdom of Monomotapa). Issued 1719, Frankfurt, Germany by A.M. Mallet. Charming little early 18th century copper engraved map with lovely hand color. The image has a near folk-art feel. Utterly unlike anything produced today and of modern aesthetic appeal for this very reason. Large eagle atop simple wreath cartouche. Mostly clean and well preserved example, trivial blank margin corner staining and edge toning which visually testifies to the age and patina. Blank margins extra wide across bottom & at left. Sheet measures c. 5 1/2" x 8". Printed area measures c. 3 3/4" x 6 1/4". Tooley's Dictionary of Mapmakers, v. 3. p.196. [B14358].
