This handsome map of England and Wales provides excellent detail of the counties, roads, cities, towns, churches and universities. The dramatic title cartouche celebrates the Glorious Revolution of 1688-89. Seated below the title are Queen Mary on the right, a woman holding a cross and urn in the center, and an imposing military figure representing King William III standing on the left. The cartouche is surrounded by putti and completed with royal crests and the English lion and Welsh unicorn.
