About the Item

Antique map titled 'Regni Daniae in quo sunt Ducatus Holsatia and Slesuicum Insulae Danicae Jutia, Scania Blekingia (..).' Map of Denmark and islands, part of Sweden and Germany, drawn by Johann Huber, published by Homann Heirs in ca. 1730, Nuremberg. The map notes fortified cities, villages, roads, bridges, forests, castles and topography. The elaborate title cartouche in the upper right quadrant features two bearded mean bearing clubs, an assortment of pastoral animals and the Danish royal crest. Source unknown, to be determined. Artists and Engravers: Made by 'Homann Heirs' after an anonymous artist. Made by an anonymous engraver after 'Homann Heirs'. Following the long period of Dutch domination, the Homann family became the most important map publishers in Germany in the eighteenth century, the business being founded by J.B. Homann in Nuremberg about the year 1702. Soon after publishing his first atlas in 1707 he became a member of the Berlin academy of Sciences and in 1715 he was appointed Geographer to the Emperor. After the founder's death in 1724, the firm was continued under the direction of his son until 1730 and was then bequeathed to his heirs on the condition that it trades under the name of Homann Heirs. The firm remained in being until the next century and had a wide influence on map publishing in Germany. Apart from the atlases the firm published a very large number of individual maps. The Homanns produced a Neuer Atlas in 1714, a Grosser Atlas in 1737, and an Atlas Maior with about 300 maps in 1780. They also issued a special Atlas of Germany with full sized plans of principal cities, school atlases and an Atlas of Silesia in 1750 with 20 maps. Condition: Good, given age.
