Description
----------------
This exquisite map created by Albert Von Kampen charts over 500 years history from the fledging Roman Empire in 266 BCE until the close of Emperor Diocletian's reign in 305 CE. Truly one of the most powerful Empires of ancient times the Roman Empire encompassed much of modern day Europe and at its height included territories in Northern Africa and the lands of Meospotamia and Babylonia in Asia. It is commonly held that the Empire ruled over 55-65 million people at its peak - a quite remarkable feat.
The map itself was originally divided into 12 wooden pieces secured onto a cloth backing. I have faithfully recreated the map to encompass its full glory and to repair damaged and discoloured sections of the original map. Von Kampen's map is a truly remarkable piece mixing a highly detailed map along with a subtle palette that is most pleasing to the eye.
This is a highly sought after work and is sure to form an interesting conversation piece to any living room. This piece would look stunning mounted (see framed edition) and comes ready trimmed to fit in popular sizes 16x12, 20x16, 24x20 and 30x24 inch frames
Features:
=========
• A highly detailed map of the Roman Empire including major rivers, oceans, mountains ranges, settlements and roads from that time
• The inset map charts how the Empire grew between 266BCE to 305CE in 8 colour coded sections to give a highly detailed account
• A striking title of "Imperium Romanum" the Roman Empire
• Accurate longitude and latitude markings
• All offset with a stylish border
Formats available
=================
