Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

An original c. 1795 copper-plate engraved map by Royal Geographer Emanuel Bowen, depicting the southeastern Germanic states and Austrian territories. This detailed cartographic work highlights the complex borders of the Holy Roman Empire, specifically focusing on the hereditary lands of the Queen of Hungary (Maria Theresa). Key Features: +++ Visuals: A classic 18th-century copper engraving featuring Bowen’s signature density of detail. The map includes distinct topographical markers for forests, mountains, and river systems. +++ Content: The scope covers the Electorate of Bavaria, the Archbishopric of Salzburg, and the Kingdom of Bohemia. It specifically delineates the ‘Queen of Hungary’s Hereditary Dominions,’ including Austria, Moravia, Styria, Carinthia, Carniola, Trent, and Tyrol. +++ Names/Genealogy: Emanuel Bowen (Geographer to George II of England and Louis XV of France). Physical Specs: +++ Date: c. 1795 (likely a posthumous issue, possibly by Laurie & Whittle). +++ Dimensions: 15.75 x 18.75 inches. +++ Format: Single-sheet copper engraving. Condition: Very Good - The impression presents well with only mild age toning consistent with 18th-century paper. Edges show minimal wear. There are notations present on the upper rear corner (verso) which do not affect the image. Emanuel Bowen (1694-1767) was renowned for producing some of the most informative maps of the Georgian era. Unlike many of his contemporaries who left open spaces on their maps, Bowen had a habit of filling voids with historical and topographical footnotes, making his work a rich resource for researchers. Although Bowen died in 1767, his plates remained in high demand and were frequently updated and reissued by publishers like Laurie & Whittle well into the 1790s. The reference to the ‘Queen of Hungary’ is historically significant; it refers to Maria Theresa, who, barred from being Holy Roman Emperor due to her gender, was primarily styled as the Queen of Hungary during the mid-18th century conflicts over her succession.
