Beautiful antique map of southeastern Australia with Victoria and New South Wales. The map is very detailed, zoom the photos to see this well. Australia was still largely undiscovered in 1859 and this is clearly visible on the map by the white areas further from the coast. In Australia there was also a gold rush around the middle of the 19th century and the most important areas where gold was found are also on the map. The routes of various explorers are also on the map and what is very nice are the comments that are here and there on the map such as "Undurchdringliches gebusch, das innere ist unbekannt" & "Unfruchtbare Gegend". Some knowledge of German makes the map even more fun.
