Palestine | Gaza | Ottoman Empire | Vintage Print

The map of Gaza was created and published in 1826 by Pierre Jacotin. It is part of the "Description de l'Égypte", an extensive atlas by the French government documenting the results of their discoveries in Egypt and neighboring regions.
The map focuses on the Gaza area, which today belongs to Israel and Palestine. It highlights important geographical features, including the Mediterranean coast, and extends into parts of Arabian Petraea. Well-known landmarks such as "Mont Jalilée" are labeled, and the map contains both French and Arabic inscriptions, indicating a bilingual approach to place names.

Historical maps show traces of time and use, the intensity and nature of which vary depending on the map and its purpose. The print offered is a reproduction.
