1) L'Ecosse, by Robert de Vaugondy, from Nouvel Atlas Portatif, 1762, (8.8 x9.4"). The original outline color delineates the counties of highland and lowland Scotland.
2) Scotland, by J. Stratford, 1804, (14.7 x 17.4"). This is an interesting comparison with the above map due to the level of detail. This map is densely packed with place names. The Shetland Islands are shown in an inset.
