Antique Devonshire Map, English Framed Robert Morden Devon Cartography - Georgian c.1720
This is a small antique map of Devonshire, an English framed cartographic engraving by Robert Morden, dating to the early Georgian period, circa 1720. A charming and historically rich representation of the county, this hand-coloured engraving captures the elegance of early 18th century mapmaking.
Fascinating 18th century map of Devon, brimming with historic detail and charm. Posthumous reproduction of Robert Morden’s celebrated work, as published in Magna Britannia by Thomas Cox, 1720. Engraved cartography displays the administrative Hundreds and antique spellings of familiar towns and regions. Hand coloured accents enrich the visual appeal, with delicate tonality throughout.
Presented in a tasteful later frame, offering sympathetic enhancement to the period character. Glazed with clear glass, protecting the map while ensuring excellent clarity. Dressed to the rear with mounting wire, ready for immediate wall hanging. A wonderful piece for collectors of early British cartography, or those with a fondness for Devonshire heritage.
This small antique county map is a delightful and informative decorative piece, steeped in early Georgian geography. An ideal addition to the traditional study, country house interior, or heritage gallery wall. Delivered ready to display.
