Copperplate, original colour, mm 495x580. One among the few and best maps of Finland. Decorated with two attractive title and scale cartouches.
Very good condition in brilliant original colour. Lotter run then the business using mostly Seutter's plates but adding some new ones also. Seutter, after having worked with Homann in Nuremberg, opened his own activity in Augsburg around 1720. His maps always have elaborate cartouches and are very decorative and printed on good paper. Lotter married Seutter's daughter in 1740 and succeeded him in 1756.
