Fine map of Tyrol with Vorarlberg and Liechtenstein. On the left a little wind rose indicates geographical orientation and at the bottom the graphic scale of distances expressed in German miles. At lower right is a large cartouche with the title. The map, which is very detailed, has pairs of capital letters on the territory that refer to the “Erklaerung” a panel along the right side. From Johann Georg Schreibern’s only published work, the Atlas Selectus, published in Leipzig in 1740.<\/p>\n
Johann Georg Schreibern (December 10, 1676 – July 31, 1750) was a German engraver, cartographer and publisher. He was the first map publisher in Saxony and produced much of his work in the city of Leipzig. He was born in Spremberg to Hans and Anna Schreibern, the sixth of seven children. Details of his training are not known, but it is likely that he apprenticed as an engraver, since in 1700 he was commissioned to draw and engrave a plan of the city of Bautzen. He continued to produce views and plans of cities, especially Leipzig, between 1709 and 1740 when he published his only bound cartographic work, Atlas Selectus von alien Konigreichen and Landern der Welt, editions of which continued to be printed after his death by his widow and son Johann Christian Schreibern.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
