This is a large, finely detailed map of Southern India by well renowned French mapmaker Guillaume de L'Isle entitled "Carte des Cotes de Malabar et de Coromandel".

The map was first issued in 1723 though this edition was published in 1780 by De L’Isle's son-in-law, Philippe Buache, also an acclaimed mapmaker, and Jean-Claude Dezauche.

The map covers the east and west coasts of the Indian subcontinent south of Bengal in the north and as far south as the southern tip. It includes the northern half of Ceylon or Sri Lanka as well as the Maldives to the west.

A title cartouche is located in the lower right corner with compass roses positioned both sides of the subcontinent. Scale bars are displayed below the western compass rose.
