Karte von Tirol, Steyermark und Illyrien. Wien, Artaria & Comp., 1844.
472 x 632 mm. Kupferstich mit Grenzkolorit der Zeit. Maßstab ca. 1:1,000,000. Zweite Ausgabe dieser Karte der südlichen habsburgischen Lande vom Boden- bis zum Gardasee und von Gloggnitz bis Pula und Karlobag, zuerst erschienen in Frieds "Atlas der neuesten Geographie für Jedermann und jede Schulanstalt" (1832). "Eine entscheidende Wende bahnte sich dann mit der Verbindung zwischen Artaria und dem Wiener Kartographen Franz Fried an. Fried, der zunächst beim Kunst- und Industrie-Comptoir als Zeichner und Bearbeiter hervorragender Karten sehr erfolgreich gewesen war [...], fand nach dem Niedergang dieses eine Zeitlang führenden Wiener Kartenverlags bei Artaria und Comp. eine neue Wirkungsstätte und erlangte dort sehr bald die Stellung eines 'Hauskartographen'; vor allem in den zwanziger und dreißiger Jahren entwarf und zeichnete er für Artaria eine große Zahl ausgezeichneter (u. a. auch Atlas-) Karten" (Dörflinger, Österr. Karten des frühen 19. Jhs., S. 409). - Spuren alter Faltung; kleine Papierdurchbrüche alt hinterlegt. Stellenweise etwas fleckig. Kleine hinterlegte Fehlstelle von oxydiertem Tintenfleck (kein Bild- oder Textverlust). Vgl. OCLC 780583004. Tooley II, 112.
