Prussian Dominions Map by John Pinkerton, 1818 - Detailed Copperplate Engraving
Description: This detailed map by John Pinkerton depicts the Prussian Dominions as of 1818, including regions of the former Kingdom of Poland. Colored by provinces, the map provides excellent detail, showcasing the extensive territories under Prussian control. The engraving, typical of Pinkerton's work, captures the remarkable detail and depth characteristic of early 19th-century British cartography, with a three-dimensional feel that enhances its visual appeal.
John Pinkerton, a notable Scottish historian, geographer, and critic, produced this map as part of his celebrated New Modern Atlas (1808-15). The atlas, noted for its fine copperplate engraving, represents some of the finest cartographic work from the early 19th century. Unlike more common atlases by Cary and Thomson, Pinkerton's folio atlas was recognized for its superior attention to detail.
This map serves as an excellent example of the quality and precision found in Pinkerton's geographical works, demonstrating his commitment to accuracy and craftsmanship. It is highly valued by collectors due to its rarity, aesthetic appeal, and historical significance in understanding the cartography of the Prussian Empire.
