This is the cover of a bound volume of prints by Pieter (I) Mortier, a Dutch cartographer and publisher active in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. The volume, entitled "Les Forces de l'Europe, Asie, Afrique et Amerique en Les costes de France et d'Espagne", features maps of coastal regions in Europe, Asia, Africa, and America, and was created between 1702 and 1703. The cover, now faded and worn, showcases a simple design featuring a pale gray background with a thin, burgundy-colored spine, a testament to its age and historical significance.
