This handsome map of the Diocese of Freising in Bavaria covers the region between Freising and Hall in Tirol, and Landsberg am Lech and Wasserburg including Munich and the Bavarian lakes. The map is densely engraved with information on the mountainous topography with hundreds of place names, castles, fortifications, forests, marshes, canals and roads. It is richly embellished with two cartouches featuring scenes of hunting, farming and fishing and the coat of arms that features the Moor of Freising.

Condition: B+

A sharp impression and original color. There is some soil and minor tears in the blank margins and on fold at bottom, with archival tape repairs. The lower left margin has been trimmed for binding, but is still adequate for framing.

Estimate: $500 - $650
