About the Item
18th-Century Map of Tyrol and Surrounding Regions by Johann Baptist Homann
Description: This striking 18th-century map by Johann Baptist Homann depicts the County of Tyrol (Tirol), a significant historical region of the Holy Roman Empire, now divided between Austria and Italy.
The map highlights the mountainous terrain characteristic of the Alps, with clear delineations of major rivers, cities, and political divisions, accentuated by hand-colored borders.
Key regions such as the Bishopric of Brixen (Bressanone) and the Prince-Bishopric of Trent (Trento) are prominently featured, reflecting the ecclesiastical governance that played a vital role in Tyrol’s history.
The map also includes portions of Bavaria, Swabia, and the Republic of Venice, underscoring Tyrol’s strategic importance as a trade and transit region connecting northern and southern Europe. The decorative cartouche in the lower right corner, featuring an Alpine scene with travelers and a mountain pass, alludes to the rugged geography and the significance of Tyrolean routes for commerce and military movements.
Condition: This map is in fair condition, with a well-preserved engraving and vibrant hand-coloring. There is a visible centerfold, typical of maps from this period, with minor wear and some discoloration along the fold. Slight creasing and marginal imperfections do not detract from the overall aesthetic and historical value. The map has been giving support with new borders with tape on the reverse along the borders.
Framing tips: To enhance the presentation, use an archival mat with a neutral tone to highlight the intricate details. A dark wood or antique-style frame will complement the historical character of the piece. UV-resistant glass is recommended to protect against light exposure, while a museum-grade mounting ensures long-term preservation. If displaying in a setting with fluctuating humidity, consider professional conservation framing.
