1760
About the Item
This is an 18th century hand-colored copperplate engraved map entitled "Europa Regnorum Provinciarum Regionum" created by the German cartographer Tobias Conrad Lotter. It was published in Augsburg, Germany in 1760. There is an ornate title cartouche in the upper left corner, a list of major highlight with coordinates in the lower right corner and a distance scale in the lower left corner. The map extends from Iceland, Scandinavia and Russia in the north to North Africa in the south.
This beautiful engraved hand-colored map of Europe is printed on a sheet that measures 20.88" high and 24" wide, with good margins all around. There is a central vertical fold, as issued. There is mild spotting, more prominently in the margins than in the map, and creases the lower corners, with a small area of loss at the lower edge of the right lower corner. There is a short separation of the lower center fold, which has been professionally reinforced on the verso. This striking map is otherwise in very good condition, particularly for its age.
Tobias Conrad Lotter (1717-1777) was a German engraver, publisher, and cartographer who lived and worked in Augsburg, a city in southern Germany. He was born into a family of engravers and learned his craft from his father and grandfather, both of whom were renowned artists. Lotter began his career as an engraver and later became a publisher of maps, atlases, and other printed materials. He was known for his exceptional skill in engraving and for the high quality of his maps, which were praised for their accuracy and attention to detail. In addition to his work as a cartographer, Lotter was also active in politics and served as a member of the city council in Augsburg. He was a respected member of the community and was known for his dedication to his work and his commitment to public service. Today, Lotter is remembered as one of the most important cartographers of the 18th century, and his maps are highly sought after by collectors and historians. His work has been praised for its beauty, accuracy, and historical significance, and he is considered to be one of the most important figures in the history of mapmaking.

Frankfort, Germany: A 16th Century Hand-colored Map by Braun & Hogenberg
By Franz Hogenberg
Located in Alamo, CA
This is a 16th century original hand-colored copperplate engraved map of Frankfort, Germany entitled "Francenbergum, vel ut alij Francoburgum Hassiae Opp" by Georg Braun & Franz Hogenberg, from their famous city atlas "Civitates Orbis Terrarum", published in Cologne, Germany in 1595.
This is an English translation of an excerpt from the original text in the atlas:
"Frankenberg or, according to others, Francoburgum, a town in Hesse. Charlemagne vested the town of Frankenberg with many freedoms and privileges, which it still enjoys to this day, and on account of its valiant and victorious soldiers awarded a signet, upon which there formerly appeared a golden castle with a tower, together with the letter F and a golden crown.
Frankenberg, seen here from the northeast, lies on a hill above the River Eder. The hillside is covered with fields neatly separated by bushes and fences. Soaring above the town is the massive Liebfrauenkirche, which was modelled on St Elizabeth's church in Marburg. The New Town was founded in 1335 at the foot of the hill (right) and merged with the Old Town as late as 1556. Frankenberg was founded by Conrad of Thuringia in 1233/34 to prevent the archbishops of Mainz from expanding their sphere of influence...
