Description:
|
|
County map in the finest 17th Century English hand-colouring we have ever seen. The superbly rich pigments and the extensive gilt highlights are all the more outstanding because of the extreme rarity of Speed maps in contemporary hand-colour. There is restoration and some browning to the fold. English text on verso (image available upon request). [IRE1476] |
