"Archiducatus Austriae inferioris" is a hand colored map of Austria created by Johann Baptist Homann (1663-1724) and published in Nuremberg, Germany in 1728 shortly after his death. It depicts the Archduchy of Lower Austria surrounded by Moravia, Bohemia, Styria and the Kingdom of Hungary. It includes Vienna and the course of the Danube River. The beautiful cartouche in the lower right depicts multiple figures, including putti and baskets of harvested crops and a cornucopia, representing the wealth and commerce of the region, as well as the coat of arms of Lower Austria.
There is mild discoloration along the vertical fold and some mild focal discoloration in the margins. It is otherwise in very good condition.
