This densely engraved map details the southern portion of Bavaria, just shy of Nuremberg, and extends into portions of Austria. At top right is an inset that extends the map further north, surrounded by the angel of Fame and putti holding up coats of arms of the region. This is the second state, with "Circuli Franconici Pars" added to the right of the title cartouche.

References: Carhart #74.

Condition: B+

A sharp impression with full contemporary color and marginal soiling. There is a centerfold separation that enters 2.25" into the image at bottom that has been archivally repaired, however the very bottom has separated again just to the map border.

Estimate: $240 - $300
