Description
Print of hand colored steel engraving titled „Carte Geographique et Politique de L’Europe”.
Drawn by L. Dussieux.
Engraved by unknown.
From „Atlas General De Geographie physique, politique et historique par L. Dussieux. Atlas de Geographie ancienne, du moyen age et Moderne“. Paris. 1854.
Louis-Étienne Dussieux, born April 5, 1815 in Lyon and died February 11, 1894 in Paris. He was a French historian-geographer.
Europe is a continent that comprises the westernmost part of Eurasia. Europe is bordered by the Arctic Ocean to the north, the Atlantic Ocean to the west, and the Mediterranean Sea to the south. To the east and southeast, Europe is generally considered as separated from Asia by the watershed divides of the Ural and Caucasus Mountains, the Ural River, the Caspian and Black Seas, and the waterways of the Turkish Straits. Yet the borders of Europe—a concept dating back to classical antiquity—are arbitrary, as the primarily physiographic term "continent" also incorporates cultural and political elements.
