Caucasus Map 1907, from Umum-i Vilayet-i Şahane’yi Havi Küçük Atlas by Mehmed Eşref

Description:
This is an Ottoman Turkish map of Caucasus published in 1907. 

It was published in the Umum-i Vilayet-i Şahane’yi Havi Küçük Atlas, authored by Mehmed Eşref. This rare atlas included a 32-page brochure in Ottoman script and 128 maps (some composed of two parts), printed on thick paper and loosely inserted after the text. Many of the maps of certain areas worldwide are the first and possibly only Ottoman maps of those regions.

Compact in size, this map reflects the geopolitical understanding of the Caucasus within the Ottoman world, a significant era when empires were interacting and competing on the European stage. Its preservation provides valuable insight into Ottoman cartography, geography education, and the perception of foreign powers in the late imperial period.
