Description
During the Century of The Lights, education saw an important development. Cartography did not change its primary military orientation, but the number of maps with a scientific and educational vocation increased. A number of them were devoted to history. We intend to show a variety of them, fashioned in England, France, Italy and Spain, showing the perception they held on our territory back in ancient Europe.
