This historical map depicts southern Italy and the island of Sicily with provinces named and in contrasting colors. Topographical features are shown with cities, towns and waterways identified. Major roads are delineated and islands named.
The inset, lower right, depicts the ''ENVIRONS OF NAPLES''. The descriptive at the bottom provides the history of “Herculaneum and Pompeii”. A very attractive view of the region as it was known in the 1840’s.
