[Arabian Peninsula].
Omoumi Mamalik Mahrousi Shahani [General map of the protected countries. Ottoman Empire]. Istanbul, Matbaa-i Amire [Imperial Military Press], [1896 CE =] 1312 H.
150 x 130 cm. Scale: 1:3,000,000. Colour lithograph, dissected into 24 sections and mounted on original linen. Very rare, monumental wall map of the Ottoman Empire, featuring one of the largest and most detailed printed representations of the Arabian Peninsula produced in the Islamic World prior to World War I. Perhaps more than any other map, it reveals the immense logistic challenges faced by Hajj pilgrims just in advance of the construction of the Baghdad and Hejaz Railway systems. Printed for official use, the map appeared at a time when the Sublime Porte was going to great lengths to shore up its authority in the Red Sea region (Hejaz, Asir, and Yemen), while being pressured by Britain to retreat from the domains it claimed in the Arabian Gulf (Kuwait, Al-Qatif/Hofuf, and Qatar). - Indeed, the present map would have been of great value to Ottoman generals and cabinet officials for strategic planning, as Arabia was increasingly a focus of global attention and interference. It served as the ideal strategic aid to chart the future construction of the Hejaz Railway (built 1900-08) and the Baghdad Railway (extended from the Anatolian Railway, from 1903 onwards) and delineates some of the world's most strategically important railway lines before 1900. - The main map encompasses most of the Arabian Peninsula, from Qatar and the Hadramaut westwards (while far eastern Arabia, including Oman and what is today the United Arab Emirates is featured in an inset, lower left). The coastlines and rivers are crisply depicted; mountain ranges are expressed by delicate tan shading; all cities and towns of note are labelled; the names of regions and tribal areas are revealed, while all key roads and Hajj caravan routes are delineated. The map features stellar coverage of the western Gulf region, labelling Qatar (then an autonomous part of the Ottoman Empire), Bahrain (a British protectorate prized for its fine natural harbour), and Kuwait, an autonomous Sheikhdom within the Ottoman Empire that would shortly become a British protectorate. Inland, the map details the Saudi-Wahhabi domain Nejd, with its capital Riyadh, while to the northwest lies the territory of the rival Al-Rashid clan, with its capital Ha’il. - Minor soiling and waterstaining, occasional light edge wear. Tears in linen partly repaired. A rare survival. Osmanli cografya literatürü tarihi [History of geographical literature during the Ottoman period], pp. 756f. David Rumsey Map Collection 13186.000 (the single other copy known in the trade). Not in Al-Qasimi collection (1493-1931).

[Aramco - Map of Saudi Arabia and the Gulf].
Central Area. Scale 1:1,000,000. [Dhahran, Aramco / USGS, 1953 or shortly after].
763 x 763 mm. Scale 1:1,000,000. Key in English. Printed on cloth. Blueprint map of the Gulf, showing Qatar, Bahrain, and Kuwait, as well as parts of Saudi Arabia, Iran and Iraq. It pays particular attention to oil fields, naming them individually and illustrating oil pipelines and facilities, including the 435 kilometre Qatif-Qaisumah pipeline which connects to the Trans-Arabian pipeline, as well as the offshore terminal and refinery at Ras Tanura. The map records some of the problematic borders within the region, showing the Iraq-Saudi Neutral Zone, the Kuwaiti-Saudi Neutral Zone and Buraimi Oasis. Among the more notable oil fields are Greater Burgan, the world's largest sandstone oil field, consisting of the Burgan field itself along with the much smaller Magwa and Ahmadi fields, as well as the Wafra field discovered in 1953 by the American Independent Oil Company and Pacific Western Oil Company. Wafra was unique in being operated jointly under separate concessions from two countries, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia, granted to American Independent Oil Company and Getty Oil Company (formerly Pacific Western Oil Company) respectively. - Slightly toned along folding lines and lower left margin.

[Armenia].
Arménie Russe. Rossijskaja Armenija. Venice, [Imprimerie des Méchitaristes de] St. Lazare, 1828.
260 x 380 mm. Engraved map mounted on cloth. Matted. Early map of Russian Armenia, featuring the eight provinces annexed by Russia in 1828, with key in French and Russian. Following Qajar Iran's defeat in the Russo-Persian War (1826-28) and the 1828 Treaty of Turkmenchay, Eastern Armenia was, among other territories, ceded to Russia. It would remain part of the Russian Empire until its collapse in 1917. - Printed at the Mechitarists' press on the island of San Lazzaro, Venice, where the Armenian order had set up their colony in 1717. They began their editorial activities as early as the following year and set up a printing press, famed for its typographic capability in many languages and alphabets, in 1789. - Very rare; catalogues list a single specimen in the British Library.
