Austrian Empire

Alexander Keith Johnston took the title Geographer at Edinburgh to the Queen when he began map-making in Scotland in 1826. Johnston, famous for his attention to geographic detail, made this rare edition of the “Handy Royal Atlas of Modern Geography” in 1868. The Austrian Empire divided by departments is illustrated on this hand colored map. Details include an inset map of the continuation of Dalmatia (A region on the eastern coast of the Adriatic Sea, mostly in modern Croatia),the names of regions, rivers, lakes, mountains, important cities, and state borders. Each large scale map was printed on thick paper with vibrant color highlighting borders.
