Issued Leipzig, Germany, 1854 by J.C. Hinrichson.

Fine and quite uncommon oversized mid-19th century antique map. Engraved with original outline hand color.

Note the extensive color-coded key at bottom left, with Roman Numeral-denoted regional explanations. Of particular interest is the longitudinal projection of the map, which tapers as it travels south.

Paper is uniformly age-toned with darkening around the edges; light scattered spotting, a few darker small spots, etc.; otherwise clean.

Original fold line as issued.

Sheet measures c. 20" x 16 3/4".

Engraved area measures c. 18 1/2" x 15 3/8".
