Beschreibung
1787 A fine and rare original antique map titled ' L'ALLEMAGNE Divisee par Cercles avec les Etats de Boheme et la Suisse ' PROVENANCE Taken from ATLAS OU COLLECTION DE CARTES GEOGRAPHIQUES POUR L'INTELLIGENCE DU VOYAGEUR FRANCOIS published by Joseph de Laporte. A beautiful 1787 exle of the Louis Brion de la Tour decorative map of the region of Germany showing the borders to Austria, Switzerland, Poland, Italy and France. CARTOGRAPHER Louis Brion de la Tour (c1743 - 1803) was the Cartographer Royal to the King of France. There is little information about his life. His official title was King's Engineer Geographer. Although he is a prolific geographer, very little is currently known of his life or his career. His life was spent in scientific work. However what is known is an important part of his work was done in collaboration with Louis Charles Desnos (1750-1790 to) a bookseller and geographical engineer for the globes and spheres of His Danish Majesty. His son Louis Brion de la Tour, a pupil of Jean-Bernard Restout, was engraver of maps and documents of the Revolution, and was also an occasional portrait oil paintings. PUBLISHER Joseph de Laporte (1714 - 1779) was an 18th Century French Priest, litarary critic, poet, playwright and prolific author. Overall size of the map is 25cm x 20cm with large margins, perfect for mounting & framing CONDITION: Excellent overall condition with contemporary hand colouring and the usual centrefold, as issued. Blank on verso. As would be expected with antique maps of nearly 230 years old, there will be some slight ageing and toning, but once mounted and framed, will look wonderful.
