Administrative History | The colouring is likely based on Wilhelm Haidinger's 'Geognostische Uibersichts Karte der Oesterreichischen Monarchie' (1845) and Adolf von Morlot's 'Geologische Uibersichts Karte zur Reise von Wien durch Oesterreich Salzburg Kärnthen Steyermark und Tyrol bis München mit Berückfichtigung der Oesterreichischen Alpen und des Bayer Hochgebirgs' (c.1847). |
CustodialHistory | The maps marked '1604' & '1610' were held as part of the Library collections. As they are clearly part of this series and have been hand coloured by Greenough, they have been transferred to the archives in March 2017. |
