A rare historical piece dating back to the early 20th century (around 1910), embodying classic cartography with a fine engraving style and serene hand-coloring. The map depicts the Arabian Peninsula in rich detail, highlighting ancient routes, geographical boundaries, and the names of cities and tribes as they were known in that era. It features clear divisions of regions such as Hejaz, Najd, and Oman, along with precise depiction of the coastlines overlooking the Red Sea and the Arabian Gulf. It also includes inset maps that add significant documentary depth, reflecting the European style of mapmaking during that period. Ideal for collection or display in luxurious offices or heritage majlises, as it combines historical and aesthetic value simultaneously.
