Description |
English: A beautiful French nautical chart or map issued in 1852 by the Depot de la Marine. Covers the Tuscan coastline from the mouth of the Arno River (Embouchure de L'Arno) to Cape Castiglioncello (just north of Pisa) with a focus on Livorno (Livourne or Leghorn). Offers sumptuous detail both inland at sea. Offers countess depth soundings as well as notes on undersea features such as banks and shoals. Equally impressive detail inland with beautifully engraved topography and detailed in Livorno proper to the level of individual roads and buildings. On the left hand side of the map there is a detailed inset of the Port of Livorno as well as five coastal views. The island of Gorgona (Gorgone) appears in the lower left quadrant. Today Livorno is a popular tourist destination and a port of call for Cruise ships visiting Tuscany. Issued by Theodore Ducos for the Depot-general de la Marine in 1852. Deutsch: Hervorragende französische Seekarte, herausgegeben 1852 durch das Marineamt. Sie enthält den toskanischen Küstenstreifen von der Arnomündung (Embouchure de L'Arno) bis Cape Castiglioncello (nördlich von Pisa) mit dem Zentrum Livorno. Links unten gehört die Insel Gorgona noch zum maßstäblichen Kartenbild. Dargestellt sind zahlreiche Details sowohl auf Land als auch auf See. Neben Lotungen sind auch Angaben zur Untergrundbeschaffenheit sowie maritime Gefahrenstellen wie Untiefen angegeben. An Land beeindrucken detaillierte Angaben wie Straßenverläufe des historischen Livorno sowie exakt wiedergegebene Bergketten und Flussverläufe. Als touristisches Ausflugsziel ist Livorno mit seinem Hafen heute Destination vieler Kreuzfahrtschiffe. Herausgegeben von Theodore Ducos des Marineamtes von 1852. |
