Johann Baptist Homann was one of the most important German cartographers of eighteenth century, and his firm was carried on by his son Johann Christoph (1701-1730), and then the 'Homann Heirs' from 1730 until 1813. The maps issued by all the firms had the same style, with strong engraving and elaborate uncolored cartouches. Throughout towns, rivers, and roads are shown with profuse detail. A wonderful title cartouche graces this map.
