Berann, probably printed around 1969–72. The sweeping view extends southwards from the Brenner Pass across Bolzano, Merano, Bressanone and Brunico to the Dolomites, with towns, roads, railways, mountain passes and numerous lifts embedded within Berann’s richly modelled Alpine landscape. The map records an important transitional moment in the development of South Tyrol’s ski resorts. It shows the Riscone–Plan de Corones cableway, opened in 1963, and the lower Drittelsand–Vigo Michele basket lift serving Speikboden, opened in 1964. The upper continuation from Vigo Michele to Speikboden, inaugurated for the 1973\/74 season, is not yet present. At Solda, a dotted “Impianto in progetto” marks the proposed cableway towards the Eisseegrat–Schaubachhütte area: a scheme documented by 1966 but only realised in modified form in 1974–75. Together, these features suggest a late-1960s or very early-1970s cartographic state.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53896241742171,"sku":"P-6-112338","price":115.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-6-112338a.jpg?v=1787833517"},{"product_id":"dolomiti-dolomites-alto-adige-panoramic-mountain-bird-s-eye-view-berann-1969-map-p-6-112340","title":"Dolomiti—Dolomites—Alto Adige—Panoramic mountain bird's eye view—Berann 1969 map","description":"\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003eDolomiti—Dolomites—Alto Adige [photographic-cover issue]\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp align=\"left\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eA spectacular Italian-English tourist panorama of South Tyrol and the Dolomites by Heinrich C. Berann, printed in 1969 for the provincial tourist office at Bolzano. Viewed southwards from the Brenner Pass, the panorama embraces Bolzano, Merano, Bressanone and Brunico, the principal roads and railways, and the celebrated peaks and resorts of the Dolomites, Ortler and Ötztal Alps. Berann combines geographical clarity with exceptionally dramatic modelling of the mountains, producing a map intended both for orientation and as an alluring advertisement for the region. Its infrastructure reflects South Tyrol’s accelerating development as a skiing destination: the cableway from Riscone, immediately south of Brunico, to Plan de Corones is shown, having opened on Christmas Day 1963, while the former Dobbiaco–Cortina railway is omitted following closure of that section in 1962. At Caldaro the dashed ascent to Passo Mendola represents the historic funicular, opened in 1903, rather than a projected cableway.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53896242102619,"sku":"P-6-112340","price":115.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-6-112340a.jpg?v=1787833517"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.antiquemapsandprints.com\/collections\/arti-grafiche-r-manfrini-rovereto.oembed","provider":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
