Very uncommon large map based on Jeffery's cartography. It is extremely detailed with roads, topography, counties, provinces, towns and villages and decorated with a large title cartouche. Ireland is in full original color with the coastline of England and Wales in outline color with a fair bit of detail included there as well. Von Reilly was a Viennese art dealer and map publisher who assembled three atlases between 1789-99.
