Barcelona 1847

Description

The maps promoted by Elías were distributed as detached booklets, eventually released for sale as an overall work, starting 1850. The 1833 provincial arrangement saw the popularization of atlas editions conveying the new territorial reality. Navarre was not a a separate kingdom anymore, becoming instead a mere province. Elías’ work consisted of a series of highly meticulous wall maps, as the title notes, historic, geographic or statistical, acomppanied with maps. This map saw different editions, at least up to 1854.
