1758
Maker: Kitchin / London Magazine
Antique map of part of Germany by Thomas Kitchin, published in The London Magazine May 1758. Includes Bamberg, Nuremberg, Wurzburg, and other nearby cities. The Anglo-Prussian Alliance was a military alliance created by the Westminster Convention between Great Britain and Prussia that lasted formally between 1756 and 1762, during the Seven Years' War. By 1757, it appeared that without substantive British assistance, Prussia would soon collapse. Frederick had established a large and well-disciplined army, but it was continually short of money. The British began to send large financial subsidies to support their ally. Very good antique condition. Copperplate engraving. Hand-colored. Matted. Measures approx. 6.75 x 9.5 inches to the neatline and 11 x 14 inches to the out mat edges.
