About the Item

Northern Italy Map – Lombardy, Venetia, Tuscany, and Sardinia 1857 This detailed antique print shows “Nördliches Italien” meaning “Northern Italy,” published in 1857 by Justus Perthes in Gotha as part of Adolf Stieler’s esteemed Hand-Atlas. The map was drawn and engraved by F. v. Stülpnagel. It covers the regions of Northern Italy prior to Italian unification, highlighting political divisions under Austrian, Sardinian, and local rule. The map includes Lombardy and Venetia under Austrian control, the Kingdom of Sardinia (including Piedmont and Savoy), the Grand Duchy of Tuscany, the Duchies of Parma and Modena, and the Papal States extending to central Italy. Major cities such as Milan, Venice, Turin, Genoa, Bologna, Florence, and Pisa are clearly labelled, alongside detailed networks of rivers, roads, and mountain ranges. Sardinia is shown in an inset below the Ligurian coast. This map is significant for its depiction of Italy shortly before the Risorgimento (unification movement) transformed the peninsula into a unified kingdom under the House of Savoy. It provides valuable historical insight into the fragmented political landscape of pre-unification Italy, including the Austrian presence in the north. Technique: Copperplate engraving with original hand colouring, used to delineate territorial borders in subtle yet clear hues. German titles and annotations are engraved with precision characteristic of Stieler’s cartographic quality. Condition summary: Excellent condition with strong impression, minimal age toning, and no tears, repairs, or significant foxing. A few spots around Corsica. Colours remain vivid and paper is firm and stable. Framing tips: This Northern Italy map will look distinguished in a dark wood or black frame to emphasise its historical and decorative value. Pair with a wide ivory or cream mount to balance its composition and highlight its intricate detail. UV-protective glass is recommended to preserve the engraving lines and original colouring for long-term display.
