Ottoman Map of Janina Vilayet 1907

Description:
This original Ottoman map, dated 1325 AH (1907 CE), depicts the Janina Vilayet. 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. 

The map, measuring 14.5 × 10.3 cm, is printed in Ottoman script (Arabic letters) and highlights the geography of Janina Vilayet during the late Ottoman period.
