Antique Print of Cape Horn, Tierra Del Fuego Archipelago of Southern Chile

About the Item

Antique print titled 'Cap Horn'. View of Cape Horn, the southernmost headland of the Tierra del Fuego archipelago of southern Chile, located on the small Hornos Island. Originates from 'Meyers Universum'. Published circa 1850. Joseph Meyer (May 9, 1796 - June 27, 1856) was a German industrialist and publisher, most noted for his encyclopedia, Meyers Konversations-Lexikon. Meyer operated very successfully as a publisher, employing a system of serial subscription to publications, which was new at that time. To this end he founded a company, Bibliographisches Institut, in Gotha in 1826. It published several editions of the Bible, works of classical literature ("Miniatur-Bibliothek der deutschen Classiker", "Groschen-Bibliothek"), atlases, the world in pictures on steel engravings ("Meyers Universum", 1833–61, 17 volumes in 12 languages with 80,000 subscribers all over Europe), and an encyclopaedia.
