Description

Finely colored example of this scarce map of the Holy Roman Empire, embellished with views of major cities and images of 8 Holy Roman Electors.

This is the 8th edition (of 11!) of this map, which appeared in 4 states between 1621 and 1645 with completely different borders. From 1647 onwards the map was published as the present one with the border engraved by Pieter Hendricksz Schut, among other things the emperor and electors are shown standing with their coats of arms and no longer riding.  (Meurer, p. 409).

The oval views are based upon the views of Braun & Hogenberg, and show Prague, Cologne, Speyer, Heidelberg, Strasbourg, Nuremberg, Frankfurt, Trier, Mainz and Leipzig.

Rarity

 According to Schilder/Stopp, there is only 1 known copy with this state of the map.

Condition Description
Engraving on 17th-century laid paper. Several areas at the sides and bottom have been expertly restored in facsimile, primarily in the lower right and left corners, including the border figures and into the map image. Margins extended.
Reference
Meurer 7.8.1.h; Schilder/Stopp, MCN VI, 36.8; cf. Stopp, Germany 12, Hollstein XXXVIII, 250 and Campbell 40.
