EDITORS COMMENTS
The print of "Danmark Map 1872 Gotha Justus Perthes Atlas" captures a beautifully detailed map from the renowned German publisher, Justus Perthes. This particular atlas was published in 1872 and showcases the rich history and illustrative techniques of that era. Justus Perthes, born in Rudolstadt in 1749, founded his business in Gotha in 1785. His son Wilhelm joined him in 1814 and together they laid the foundation for the Geographical Branch of their business. One of their notable publications was the Stieler-Atlas (1817-1823), which featured contributions from esteemed German geographers such as Heinrich Berghaus and Karl Spruler. The legacy continued with Wilhelm's son Bernard Wilhelm Perthes taking over the firm until his passing in 1857. In 1863, the company introduced the Almanach de Gotha, an annual publication featuring statistical, historical, and genealogical information about various countries around the world. This print not only showcases a piece of history but also highlights Victorian-era engraving techniques that were used to create this stunning map. The vintage retro style adds to its charm and makes it a perfect addition to any art or culture enthusiast's collection.
