Beskrivning

"Plan och panorama öfver Stockholm"

This beautifully detailed city plan of Stockholm, surrounded by 13 finely executed views of prominent buildings and scenic areas, was produced by the lithographer Johann Friedrich Meyer and engraver Frederik Henrik Dethleff. The map was published around the 1860s by C. E. Fritzes förlag. The composition features a central urban map with inset illustrations, including architectural landmarks, coastal scenes, and an inset overview map of the Stockholm archipelago.

Johann Friedrich Meyer (1813–1887) was a 19th-century lithographer active in Sweden, known for his meticulous cartographic and artistic lithographs, often in collaboration with engravers and publishers. Frederik Henrik Dethleff (1816–1863) was a skilled engraver who contributed significantly to Swedish topographical and architectural imagery during the mid-1800s. Together, they produced visual documents that captured both the geographic precision and the atmospheric presence of their subjects.
