About this Item
HESSEN GERMANY. HOMANN. C1715 ----TITLE: Landgraviatus Hassię Inferioris nova Tabula, in qua pręcique Ditiones Hasso-Casselense et Comitatus Waldeck cum insertis et vicinis alioru Statuum Pręfecturis exhibentur. ----DESCRIPTION: This is a very detailed map of Lower Hessen with its individual duchies and territories showing place names, rivers, woods and mountains. Cassell (Kassel) is at the center of the map. ----IMPRINT: a Ioh. Bapt. Homanno Noribergę. 19 h x 22 ½ w. Copper engraving. The verso is blank except for the words Kur-Hessen in bold manuscript. The term "S.C.M. Geogr." or Sacrae Caesareae Majestatis Geographus (Geographer of the Holy Imperial Majesty) does not appear in the title or imprint, suggesting this map was engraved prior to 1715 when Homann received that title and began to add that important title to his works. ----CARTOUCHES: The title cartouche is at the upper left. A forest scene with hunters is at the upper right. Neither cartouche is colored as was the general practice for original coloring of Homann maps. The map is by Johann Baptist Homann (1664-1724), a German engraver and publisher in Nuremberg. ----CONDITION: Old repair with paper to lower centerfold. Margins soiled and stained. Original hand-outline and wash color. Image in good condition. ----Z7M32. Seller Inventory # Z7M32
