A beautiful 1855 first edition example of Colton's map of Denmark. Like most of Colton's europe maps, this map was derived from an earlier wall map of the World produced by Colton and D. Griffing Johnson. The map covers all of Denmark inclusive of the Duchy of Holstein. Features three inset maps: Iceland, the Faroe Islands, and Bornholm. A list along the upper left border notes the counties of Iceland. At this time in history, Scandinavia was in the midst of a prolonged period of peace and prosperity that led to a cultural and population boom. This map also identifies various cities, towns, forts, rivers, rapids, mountain passes, fords, and an assortment of additional topographical details. Map is hand colored in pink, green, yellow and blue pastels to define national and regional boundaries. Surrounded by Colton's typical spiral motif border. Dated and copyrighted to J. H. Colton, 1855. Published from Colton's 172 William Street Office in New York City. Issued as page no. 11 in volume 2 of Colton's 1856 Atlas of the World.
