The famous German firm of cartographic publishers was founded by Johann Baptist Homann in 1702 in Nuremberg. In 1707 he published the “Neuer Atlas” whose success continued for many years. This fine map of the Dauphine in France centres on Grenoble and includes Lyon in the upper left. It bears an elaborate ornate title cartouche.
