This is a beautiful 1756 map of Scandinavia by Robert de Vaugondy. It covers Sweden, Norway and Finland along with parts of Denmark and Russia. An inset of Iceland is included in the top left quadrant. This extremely detailed map notes important cities, towns, rivers, mountains, roads and a host of additional topographic features.
A highly decorative title cartouche appears in the bottom right quadrant. Drawn by Robert de Vaugondy in 1756 and published in the 1757 issue of his Atlas Universal. The Atlas Universal was one of the first atlases based upon actual surveys. Therefore, this map is highly accurate (for the period) and has most contemporary town names correct, though historic names are, in many cases, incorrect or omitted.
