This is Gustav Freytag's 1902 large-format topographic map of the Dolomite Mountains of the European Alps, spanning the border region between Austria and Italy. It represents an early example of the first great age of Alpine cartography, pioneered by Freytag employee Hans Rohn, that coincided with the increasing popularity of Alpine clubs like the Deutscher und Österreichischer Alpenverein. A Closer Look Coverage includes a large portion of what is now Belluno Province and Trentino-Alto Adige (Südtirol) Province in Italy. At the time of this map's preparation, the Südtirol portion of the map, at left, was part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, while the Belluno side at right had become part of the Kingdom of Italy in 1866. That being said, although the international border is marked at several points, it is hardly emphasized here, and both German and Italian names are employed, sometimes for the same feature. Aside from the international boundary, many other features are indicated, including towns and villages, individual buildings, roads of several classes, railways, footpaths, mule tracks, churches, chapels, observation towers, inns, hunting lodges, and of course topographic details like waterways, terrain, and elevation. A legend and table of abbreviations appears at bottom. Alpine Adventures This map and much of the other work produced by Rohn and Freytag both helped launch and reinforce the trend for recreational Alpine hiking that took off in the 1860s. Alpine clubs were founded in quick succession in Germany and Austria (merged in 1873 as the Deutscher und Österreichischer Alpenverein), Switzerland, France, and Italy. Based in Vienna, Freytag (later Freytag and Berndt) developed a niche printing highly-detailed and realistic folding maps for hikers, thanks in large part to lithographic engraver Hans Rohn (see biography below). Love of the mountains (which themselves spanned borders), of mastering challenging summits, and of scientific curiosity (geology, glaciology, botany) tied together enthusiasts of different nations, but the hobby could also be used to reinforce nationalism and discrimination, particularly against Jews, who were excluded from many local sections of the DuÖAV. Publication History and Census This map was prepared by J. Drobny with terrain by Hans Rohn for the publisher Freytag and Berndt as a special supplement to the 1902 issue of the Zeitschrift des Deutschen und Oesterreichischen Alpenvereins . It is the eastern sheet (Blatt) of a two-sheet map of the Dolomites (confusingly, the western sheet, Blatt 1, was published after Blatt 2 in the 1903 edition of the Zeitschrift ). The two sheets are sometimes cataloged together but often separately, which has led to some unclear cataloging. These 1902 maps appear to be a predecessor edition of the 1910 set of maps of the Dolomites (previously sold by us) titled 'G. Freytag's Touristen-Wanderkarte der Dolomiten.' The present edition of the map is cataloged, either independently or with the western sheet, at about fifteen institutions in the OCLC, all of which are in Europe except for Cornell University.
