18th Century Antique Conrad Lotter Septentrionalis Meridionalis American Maps

About the Item

Pair of rare hand colored maps from the 1770's, depicting "America Septentrionalis" (North America), engraved by Georg Friedrich Lotter and America Meridionalis (South America), engraved by Gustav Conrad Lotter. Silver painted wood frame. Georg Friedrich Lotter (1744-1801) and Gustav Conrad Lotter (1746-1776) were brothers to Matthaus Albrecht Lotter (1741-1810) and all German engravers / mapmakers and sons of Tobias Conrad Lotter (1717-1777) who had inherited the business from Matthaus Seutter. T.C. Lotter and his sons succeeded in building on the success and professional reputation of Seutter's work, becoming one of the most prominent mid-18th century map publishers working in the German school. After T.C.'s death the firm began to decline. It was passed on to the next generation of Lotters, Gabriel (1776-1857) and Georg Friedrich (1787-1864), but faded out of business in the early 19th century.

Antique 18th Century Map of the Province of Pensilvania 'Pennsylvania State'
Located in Philadelphia, PA
A fine antique of the colony of Pennsylvania. Noted at the top of the sheet as a 'Map of the province of Pensilvania'. This undated and anonymous map is thought to be from the Gentleman's Magazine, London, circa 1775, although the general appearance could date it to the 1760's. The southern boundary reflects the Mason-Dixon survey (1768), the western boundary is placed just west of Pittsburgh, and the northern boundary is not marked. The map has a number of reference points that likely refer to companion text and appear to be connected to boundaries. The western and southern boundaries are marked Q, R, S, for example. A diagonal line runs from the Susquehanna R to the Lake Erie P. A broken line marked by many letters A, B, N, O, etc., appears in the east. There are no latitude or longitude markings, blank verso. Framed in a shaped contemporary gilt wooden frame and matted under a cream colored matte. Bearing an old Graham Arader Gallery...
