ORIGINAL EDITION OF ANICH AND HUEBER'S TYROL WALL-MAP, THE MOST ACCURATE TO DATE AND THE STANDARD WELL INTO THE 19TH CENTURY. Full engraved title: "Tyrolis sub felici regimine Mariae Theresiae Rom. Imper. Aug. chorographice delineate a Petro Anich et Blasio Hueber Colonis oberperfussianis curante Ignat. Weinhart Profess. Math. in Univers. Oenipontaria. Aeri incise a Ioa. Erneste Mansfeld, Viennae 1774." Ignaz Weinhart S.J., Austrian Jesuit and professor of mathematics and physics at the University of Innsbruck, was the brainchild behind the first geographic survey of the Tyrol. Weinhart acted as mentor and teacher to Peter Anich and Blasius Hueber, who served as the principal cartographers of the project; Johann Ernst Mansfeld was the engraver. Weinhart met Anich in 1751 and immediately recognized his surveying and cartographic talents. Anich and Heuber conducted their survey of the Tyrol over several years, from 1760 to 1774, with Weinhart supervising their activity. The fruit of their long collaborative efforts--the 20-part map of north and south Tyrol--was the first accurate land survey of the region and became the model for later surveying in the field of military geography.
