Frijlink, revised by A. van Otterloo, and printed by D. Noothoven van Goor in Leiden. The map presents the Swiss Confederation in the late 19th century, depicting its cantonal divisions, mountainous terrain, and major waterways with exceptional clarity and precision. Each canton is outlined in subtle hand-colored borders in red, yellow, green, and violet, while the topography is finely rendered through delicate hachuring to convey the rugged alpine landscape.
