Antique Gloucestershire Map, Atlas, English, Robert Morden, Cartography, C.1700

Description

This is an antique county map of Gloucestershire with atlas folio. An English, framed engraving of cartographic interest By Robert Morden, dating to the late 17th century and later.

Superb lithography of Gloucestershire with the atlas excerpt from Camden's Britannia of 1695

Displays a desirable aged patina with a lightly aged finish throughout

Fine cartography, appealingly set within a later gilt and ebonised frame

Hand-coloured presentation, and profuse in town, village and administrative detail

Mapped by Robert Morden (1650 - 1703) in high detail as sold by Abel Swale & John Churchill

Scale of Great, Middle and Small miles - a fascinating system devised before the standardised mile

Reverse hosts a folio with the relevant atlas section for Gloucestershire as it stood in the late 17th century

Dressed to the rear with hanging wire for ease of mounting

This is a quality antique county map of Gloucestershire, with fine cartographic interest and enhanced with an atlas excerpt providing further historical context. A treat for display or a collector. Delivered ready to display.
