Pub Note:
"First edition, very rare (only the reprint from the Kronländer edition of the archive publisher is missing on the ÖNB). - The author Vinzenz Kettner published a similar map with the title "Map of the Imperial and Royal Coastal Land" around 1835 (identical in format and depicted area and also printed by Förster in Vienna) and there is apparently a preliminary drawing for this on the ÖNB the year 1830 with the title "Overview map of the Aerarial Post and Municipality of Strassen in Istria". A copy of the present card can be found in the catalog of the library of Charles University in Prague. Hardly any data can be found about the author himself (he can be found in army schematics). - The map extends from Bovec (Flitsch) in the north to Ilovik (Asinello or German Nebe) [small island south of Losinj / Lussino] in the south. The depicted coastline of the mainland extends from Grado via Trieste, Pula, Rijeka to Senj (Segna or German Zengg). Particular attention was paid to the large number of localities that have been drawn in, as well as the roads and the planned railroad. The representation of the mountains is not entirely successful. On the right under the title is a statistical table with the areas and inhabitants of the political districts." (Matthaeus Truppe, 2020)
