"Tabula Generalis Marchionatus Moraviae in Sex Circulos Divisae quos Mandato Caesareo...", Homann, Johann Baptist

Handsome map of Moravia, the southeastern part of the Czech Republic, showing its six political divisions. The major cities are Brno (Brunn) and Olomouc (Olmutz), and there are hundreds of other cities and villages located. The map is beautifully engraved and embellished with a very decorative cartouche composed of allegorical figures and a coat-of-arms. In the lower left, a pastoral scene with a river god adorns the distance scale.

A nice impression with full contemporary color and minor soiling that is mostly confined to the blank margins. There are old paper repairs to some chips and tears in the bottom margin.
