Antique Map of the British Isles (Veteris et Novae Britanniae) – Philipp Cluver – c1690’s

Short Description

An original copper engraved map by Philipp Cluver (also known as Cluverius). This fine map comes from his great work “Introductions in Universam Geographicam”.

Surprising detail such as Hadrian’s Wall and further north Antonine’s Wall which is misplaced and should be further north again. The exaggerated scale of the lochs and lakes of Scotland and Ireland is typical of these early maps.

Inset map of the Orkney Islands, a figurative title cartouche featuring Britannia, compass rose and mileage cartouche with cherubs adds to the decorative style. A truly lovely early map

Very strong impression on chained paper, folded as published, some age as expected. A very good example. Size 36cm by 26cm excellent for. framing.

Price unframed $140.00

Price: $140.00
