I deal with the treatment of hills and mountain ranges in late XVIII
century up to mid nineteenth century in a paper already mentioned
under a different subject (question of engraving): Cartography, Art
and Mimesis. The Imitation of Nature, in Land Surveying in the
Eighteenth and Nineteenth Centuries, in: Observing Nature – The
Osmotic Dynamics of Romanticism Representing Experience 1800 – 1850,
(ed.) Erna Fiorentini, Berlin, Reimer 2007, pp. 57-71).
I also reproduce in the paper (in colour) some tables of A. M.
Perrot, Modèles de Topographie, which became unsurpassed model for
topographical drawings in Europe. I also discuss about the
involvement of artists (landscape painters) in large scale mapping
and especially in drawing mountains in topographical maps in Italy
and other European countries.

Dear Mrs. Day,
A good entry is Eduard Imhof's 'Cartographic relief presentation',
especially the first chapter on historical developments. The 2007
reprint
(by ESRI) is online at Google Books:

I am working on topographical drawings in the papers relating to the
mid-nineteenth century
Ordnance Survey of Ireland and I am seeking references and
sources in
relation to the depiction of relief.
Are there any other techniques for showing relief in early
nineteenth
century map making apart from hachuring or shading? Are there are
any
sources for the training of hill sketchers apart from Yoland Jones
(Cartographic Jnl, vol. 11 (1974))
