21 George Byfield Whittaker (1793–1847) – Map of Europe – Copperplate Engraving (1826)
This detailed antique map of Europe depicts the continent's political geography in the early 19th century, including countries, major cities, and geographical features. Published in 1826, it reflects the historical borders and territories of the period, such as the Austrian Empire, Ottoman Empire, and Kingdom of Prussia, before many later 19th-century changes. The map serves as both a historical document and a fine example of early 19th-century cartographic engraving.
George Byfield Whittaker was a prominent British publisher and bookseller active in the first half of the 19th century. He was known for producing a range of maps, atlases, and literary works, contributing significantly to the dissemination of geographical knowledge during his career.
