Description longue
« Amusement pour qui désire parcourir les différentes parties du monde » C'est le célèbre traité de géographie, composé par Idrîsî, vers le milieu du XIIe siècle, à la cour de Roger II, roi de Sicile. Les premiers feuillets sont en partie détériorés ; le dernier feuillet, renfermant la dixième section du septième climat, manque ; d'autres feuillets dans le corps du volume ont été raccommodés et présentent des lacunes. Cet exemplaire renferme un planisphère dessiné avec soin et soixante-huit cartes, représentant chacune la dixième section d'un climat, également fort bien dessinées et coloriées. Ce sont probablement, de toutes les cartes arabes, les mieux exécutées. Deux cartes, celles de la première et de la seconde section du septième climat, manquent.
