This large 17th century hand-colored map of Vienna, Austria and the surrounding countryside and villages entitled "Plan de la Ville de Vienne en Austriche et ses Environs Par le. Sr. Sanson" was originally created by Nicholas Sanson d'Abbeville and published by Hubert Jaillot in "Atlas Nouveau" in Paris in 1695. It depicts Vienna, Austria and the towns and villages in its vicinity.
The map consists of two sheets joined as one along a vertical joint. The map has original hand-coloring. It is printed on antique hand-made laid, chain-linked paper with wide margins. The sheet measures 24.88" high and 38" wide. There is a central vertical joint, as issued. There is mild text and color offset from the opposite side as a result of the map having been folded in the atlas for hundreds of years. The map is otherwise in very good condition.
