Sobre este artículo
London, 1690. unbound. very good. Samuel Moore. Miniature map. Uncolored engraving. Image measures 4 5/16" x 6 3/16".<br/> <br/> Tangier (in modern day Morocco) controlled entry into the Mediterranean Sea and was the main commercial centre on the North West coast of Africa. It became a British possession in 1661 via the dowry of King Charles II's new wife Catherine of Braganza. Tangier was regularly attacked by Moorish raiders opposed to the British presence. Some toning, otherwise in good condition. John Seller (c. 1630-1697) was an English instrument maker and cartographer and in 1671 he was appointed Hydrographer to the King. Seller instigated the first English maritime atlas, in an effort to compete with the successful Dutch maps at the time. This print was published in "A New Systeme of Geography...", circa 1690.<br/> <br/>
