Johann Baptist Homann was a German cartographer, publisher and engraver. In 1702 he established a publishing and trading firm for cartography in Nuremberg, making globes and publishing maps.
Homann’s Lotharingiae Tabula Generalis is a historical map depicting the region of Lorraine in detail. The map is richly decorated with cartouches and allegorical figures, typical of Homann’s work.
