Description: antique map from 1859. By Houze.antique map and authentic, dating from the year 1859. Compiled under the direction of A. Houzé, originally published in an atlas by the same author. Titled: "Greek Empire and Kingdom of Italy 774 to 900". Houze's maps are very characteristic, identifiable in an instant, because of his inimitable style. The Map is always accompanied by a very detailed legend, with many geographical and historical details. Each reference is accompanied by a number and a line of a certain color, a color specific to a country, a civilization or a cultural space. Very rare for sale, this Map deals in particular with Greece (Greek Empire: Eastern Roman Empire) and Italy (Kingdom of Italy), whose history is treated jointly. This is an invitation to delve into history through geography. Gorgeous !Dimensions: 25cm x 34cmFairly good conservation condition. Beautiful yellow patina with some rare foxing or usual defects. Please look at the attached photo to judge exactly the condition of the engraving .The Byzantine Empire or Eastern Roman Empire is the eastern part of the Roman Empire resulting from the sharing of imperial power in the 4th century between two emperors, one reigning over the East (Pars Orientalis) with its capital Constantinople (formerly called Byzantium), the other over the western part (Pars Occidentalis) with its capital Milan, then Ravenna. It was in the second half of the 19th century that the term "Byzantine" became widespread for the Eastern Roman Empire, but in fact there was no foundation or beginning of the Byzantine Empire: the distinction between the Roman Empire and the Byzantine Empire, which replaced the expression "Late Empire", is a question of convention between modern historians, while specifying that this term does not designate a State other than the Roman State but a historical period of it.Professional in the sale (and passion) of historical and geographical engravings, I will ship your purchase with the greatest care as I myself would like to receive it.
