About this sheet

Antique map titled 'Des Isles Britanniques'. Original antique map of the British isles. This map is divided in to three major regions of the 18th century United Kingdom: England, Ireland, and Scotland. It is color coded and thoroughly labeled with provinces and many major and minor cities. Since northern Scotland is cut off, there is an insert in the upper left hand corner of the map which shows Scotland’s upper boundaries and features the Orkney and Shetland Islands. Additionally, the map is surrounded by text which summarizes the histories of England, Ireland, and Scotland. Published by J.B.L. Clouet, 1787.
