Austrian dominions. Artist/engraver/cartographer: Drawn & engraved by Samuel John Neele for John Thomson's "New General Atlas". Provenance: "A new general atlas", consisting of a series of geographical designs, on various projections, exhibiting the form and component parts of the globe; and a collection of maps and charts, delineating the natural and political divisions of the Empires, Kingdoms, and States in the World", Edinburgh: Printed by George Ramsay and Company, for John Thomson and Company, Edinburgh; Baldwin, Cradock, and Joy, London; and John Cumming, Dublin [Thomson's New General Atlas]. Type: Antique early 19th century atlas map with original hand colouring. This large, decorative map shows the Austrian Empire. It includes New or West Galicia (incorporating Krakow, and extending to the north east of Warsaw, today in Poland), although this territory had been lost in the 1809 War of the Fifth Coalition. With the Final Act of the Vienna Congress in 1815 the territory became part of Congress Poland, while Krakow nominally retained its independence as the Free City of Kraków.
