Map. Engraving with original hand colored outline. Image measures 19 1/2" x 24" Impressive sea chart of the North and Baltic Seas, extending from the eastern coast of England to St. Petersburg. Includes insets of the Harbour of Heligoland, the Port of Revel, and the Harbour of St. Petersburg. Coastlines are carefully rendered, with towns and rivers labeled. Shows marine routes, sandbanks, and depths by soundings. The map is in good condition with chips and tears at margins, not affecting the image. John Thomson (1777 - 1837) was a Scottish bookseller and publisher active in the early 19th century, who was one of the leaders in Europe who favored detailed and accurate mapping over the decorative and elaborate cartouches that appeared in earlier maps. His most important work was "Thomson's New General Atlas" and his "Atlas of Scotland". Although he went into bankruptcy twice during his career, his maps are today highly desirable for their scale and detail. This is beautiful example of his work. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 309364
