Antique Maps of Tarragona

Original plans of Tarragona province from 1715 to 1744, chiefly by Pieter van der Aa and Isaac Basire: the fortress town of Flix, the stronghold of Tortosa on the Ebro, and the wider Camp de Tarragona, each surveyed with the contemporary military precision typical of the War of the Spanish Succession years.

A category of interest to local historians and collectors from the province, and a useful set for comparing how the same stretch of the Ebro was mapped by different engravers. Every plan is an original of its period, with a technical sheet and exact measurements.
