"Tractus Norwegiae Danicus Magnam Dioeceseos Aggerhusiensis", Homann, Johann Baptist

The focus of this map of Aggerhus is the spectacular cross-section of a mountain mine that fills the right side of the map. The map itself covers the vicinity of Oslo (Christania) and provides a fine view of the roads, towns, villages and forts in the region. The large title cartouche is beautifully engraved with putti in a cloud background.

Condition: B+

Centerfold toned with a repair in lower margin to border, an old faded red ink notation in blank sea near Christia and some soiling in lower right margin. Otherwise a flawless example with a strong impression, with the map in original color on very nice, thick paper.
