From the venerable Mitchell atlas, one of the most attractive atlases produced in the 19th century comes this visually stunning antique selling, hand-coloured map of Hindoostan, Farther India (Southeast Asia), China, and Tibet. While admiring the map, keep in mind that all the coloured lines and filled-in colour were painstakingly done by hand.
Text at the bottom states "Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 1867 by S. Augustus Mitchell, Jr. in the Clerks Office of the District Court of the U.S. for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania".
Size: approx. 14.5 inches x 12 inches (36.83 cm x 30.48 cm)
The map has an intricate vine motif border, typical for Mitchell atlases of that era.
In very good condition; blank on the reverse.
