Reilly, Franz Johann Joseph

Art dealer, mapmaker, and publisher, in 1789 he started a project: “Schauplatz der fünf Theile der Welt nach und zu Anton Friedrich Büschings grosser Erdbeschreibung” (Scene of the five parts of the world: including Anton Friedrich Büsching’s description of the earth), engravings by Ignaz Albrecht, publishing maps weekly until 1806, by which time 830 maps had been produced – but only of Europe, and including maps of Poland and Lithuania – despite the overall title. He also published,
among other atlases, a “Schul Atlas” in 1791–1792 with 42 maps, and “Grosser Deutcher Atlas” with 28 sheets, the first completely Austrian made world atlas, in 1794–1796.
