A 1755 map of Scandinavia of considerable rarity by Jean Palairet and John Gibson. Map covers Norway and Sweden from the high Arctic to the Baltic Sea and from the Atlantic Ocean to Finland. There is little topography except for a mountain range separating Norway from Sweden. Political divisions are noted. A title cartouche of a baroque ethic rests in the upper left quadrant. This map was drawn and engraved by John Gibson for Palairet 's 1755 Atlas Methodique. The OCLC identifies only one other example of this map in the Herzogin Anna Amalia Bibliothek of Weimar, Germany. There is also an example in the Library of Congress. We are aware of at only one other example in private hands.
