Atlas novus Reipublicae Helveticae : XX. Mappis compositus ; Gabriel Walsers, reformierten Pfarrers zu Berneck im Rheinthal, Schweitzer Geographie : samt den Merkwürdigkeiten in den Alpen und hohen Bergen : zur Erläuterung der Homannischen Charten herausgegeben
This is an eighteenth-century atlas of Switzerland, compiled by the Reformed pastor Gabriel Walser and published in 1769 by the Homann heirs in Nuremberg for scholars and map readers. Its pictures are hand-coloured copperplate maps of Swiss cantons and regions, with decorative cartouches, mountain hachuring and tinted borders that a designer could draw on for heraldic colour palettes and early cartographic linework.
