Item description from seller

Very good. Minor wear along original centerfold. Original platemark visible. Some spotting. Size 20 x 22 Inches. This is a scarce 1753 map of the county of Tyrol in modern day Italy and Austria, by Robert de Vaugondy. It covers this historic region from Lake Constance east to Lienz, Austria and south as far as Lake Garda in Italy. It includes the modern day countries of Austria, Italy and Liechtenstein. The entire region is depicted in extraordinary detailed, offering both topographical and political information, with forests and mountains beautifully rendered in profile. Originally a state of the Holy Roman Empire, the County of Tyrol became a province of the Austrian Empire in 1814 and was later a part of Austria-Hungary. The region was divided between Austria and Italy after World War I. A large decorative title cartouche appears near the bottom right quadrant of the map. Issued in the 1757 issue of the Atlas Universal . The Atlas Universal was one of the first atlases based upon actual surveys. Therefore, this map is highly accurate (for the period) and has most contemporary town names correct, though historic names are, in many cases, incorrect or omitted. References: Rumsey 3353.068.
