MAP OF PARIS. BAUERKELLER, GEORGE. Nouveau plan de Paris en relief. Paris 1846.
Lithographic plate in original colour. Ca 535 x 670 mm. Framed.
The first edition was published in 1839.
Rare plan of Paris.
Embossed lithographic relief map, with surface raised indicating city blocks. Important public buildings are highlighted in red. Parks are green. The "arrondissements" in different colours for easy overwiew. The result makes the map look like a modern piece of art. A very unusual plan. Bauerkeller published similar maps of London, New York, Vienna, Hamburg, Frankfurt and other cities. The Geomontographie-method (a technique to make relief maps such as the present) was patented by Bauerkeller.
