Description: WHAT YOU ARE BUYING/BIDDING ON #41920 Pair of rare hand colored maps from the 1770's, depicting "America Septentrionalis" (North America), engraved by Georg Friedrich Lotter and "America Meridionalis" (South America), engraved by Gustav Conrad Lotter. Silver painted wood frame. Georg Friedrich Lotter (1744-1801) and Gustav Conrad Lotter (1746-1776) were brothers to Matthaus Albrecht Lotter (1741-1810) and all German engravers / mapmakers and sons of Tobias Conrad Lotter (1717-1777) who had inherited the business from Matthaus Seutter. T.C. Lotter and his sons succeeded in building on the success and professional reputation of Seutter's work, becoming one of the most prominent mid-18th century map publishers working in the German school. After T.C.'s death the firm began to decline. It was passed on to the next generation of Lotters, Gabriel (1776-1857) and Georg Friedrich (1787-1864), but faded out of business in the early 19th century.
