Spanish Arquebus, Salvador Cenarro, Madrid, 1761-1793

The map is of the province of Madrid, the capital region of Spain, as it appeared in 1901. Here are the key features it displays: The map shows the central part of Spain, with the Guadarrama mountain range prominently visible, marking the natural border to the north of Madrid. Blue lines likely indicate rivers, including the Manzanares River, which flows through Madrid, and the Jarama River, a tributary to the Tagus. Red lines depict the roads and railways, outlining the infrastructure that connects Madrid's various towns and cities within the province and beyond.

The map includes a legend (Signos Convencionales) that explains the symbols used for provincial capitals, roads, railways, and other geographic features.
