Description: An original antique, copper-engraved map of the northern part of South America published in c.1881 in Adolf Stieler’s ‘Hand Atlas uber alle Theile der Erde und uber das Weldgebaude ’ by the Justus Perthes publishing house in Gotha. The 6th edition which was printed from 1875-1881 is generally regarded as the edition in which the work reached the high scientific level and the unsurpassed relief Stieler's Atlas is famous for. The map shows part of Central America, Columbia, Venezuela, Ecuador and Bolivia and it is nicely outline hand coloured with the printed area measuring approximately 405mm x 325mm with good sized margins beyond, blank verso. There is a centrefold as published. This map is sheet one of six in the original atlas covering the entire south American continent (the other five are all currently available in the store). Condition report: Excellent condition, good quality paper, light age toning as is appropriate to a map of this age. Please study the photographs carefully.
