About the Item
An early 19th century map of ancient Syria and Egypt entitled "Carte de la Syrie et de l'Egypte anciennes/dressée par M. Lapie, Colonel d'Etat Major, et M. Lapie fils, Captaine au méme Corps" by Pierre M. Lapie and his son Alexander Emile Lapie, published in 1833 in Paris in their atlas 'Atlas universel de geographie ancienne et moderne, precede d'un abrege de geographie physique et historique'. The map was engraved by Armand Joseph Lellemand (1810-1871). The map depicts the Holy Land and Egypt as it existed at the time Egypt was ruled by Cleopatra. The map is centered on Egypt, Syria and Cyprus and covers the coastline of the Eastern Mediterranean in the north and the northern coast of the Red Sea in the south, including Ethiopia, Asia Minor and Mesopotoamia.
The map is hand-colored in outline. It is presented in a brown wood frame. The frame measures 27" x 21.38" x 0.75". There are areas of discoloration in the sheet margins, most prominently on the right. The map itself is in very good condition.
Pierre M. Lapie (fl. 1779 - 1850) and his son Alexandre Emile Lapie (fl. 1809 - 1850) were French cartographers and engravers as well as officers in the French army. Alexander carried the title of "First Geographer to the King".
