About the Item
Antique map Asia titled 'Asien vom VIten bis in die erste Haelfte des IXten Jahrhundert’s Zeit der grossfen Ausdehnung des Ralifen Reiches; des Reiches Tufan oder Tubet und der Chang Dynastie in China'. Old map of Asia depicting Asia in the 6th through the 9th centuries. This period roughly corresponds to the Chang Dynasty in China and the Tufan kings of Tibet. Originates from Karl von Spruner's 'Historical Atlas'.
Artists and Engravers: Karl Spruner von Merz (15 November 1803 – 24 August 1892), or Karl von Spruner as he preferred to be known, was a German cartographer and scholar. He is best known for his historical atlases. The first of these was his Historischer Atlas von Bayern (historical atlas of Bavaria), published in 1838. His greatest work was his Historisch-Geographischer Hand-Atlas, whose first edition appeared in parts from 1848 to 1853.
