Description
Fine old color example of this extremely rare map of Italy, Sicily, Corsica and Sardinia, bearing the names of Carol Allard and Joannes Van Keulen.
The coloring on the map is superb and was unquestionably applied by one of deluxe specialty colorists of the period. It is very unusual to see such an exceptional example.
The map itself is a great rarity.

Son of Hugh ALLARD.
The Allard family ran an active publishing business in Amsterdam in the latter half of the seventeenth century.
Most of their publications consisted of atlases made up of maps and town plans by their more famous predecessors, Blaeu, Jansson, de Wit, Visscher and others, but one of their most attractive and interesting sheet maps was of New England (Hugo Allard, 1656), based on Jansson, which included a view of New Amsterdam by C. J. Visscher.
