Sobre este artículo
Gotha: Justus Perthes, 1850. Map. Engraving with hand outline coloring. Image measures 12" x 15"<br/> <br/> Incredibly detailed map in German of the Pacific Ocean, including Australia, Southeast Asia, and New Zealand. Island groups are extensively labeled, and hand coloring is used throughout to indicate colonial holdings. <br> <br> This map appeared in the 1853 issue of Stieler's Hand Atlas. In very good condition with minor spotting, and toning to margins - not affecting the image.<br> <br> The publishing firm of Justus Perthes (1749-1816) was first established in 1785 and continued producing maps up through the beginning of the 21st century. Originally known for almanacs and yearbooks, the firm was nationalized by the German Democratic Republic in the 1950s and channeled its informational bent into the production of school atlases and wall maps. Along with important editors like Peterman, Stieler, Meyer and Spruner, the firm pioneered the Hand Atlas. The Perthes firm continues to publish atlases and maps even today. This map nicely conveys the rigor of their research and production.<br/> <br/>
