Original uncoloured engraved map of West Riding of Yorkshire trimmed to neatline and backed onto 18th century laid paper. Map dimensions 27 x 32 cm, overall backing-sheet size 32 x 40 cm. Faintly smudged and browned to large portion of map. An early decorative map of West Riding of Yorkshire engraved by William Hole based on the earlier maps by Elizabethan cartographer Christopher Saxton first published in the 1607 edition of William Camden's Britannia.* This example is from the first English edition of Camden's Britannia published in 1610, without any text on the verso. Embellished with compass rose, compass dividers, and decorative cartouche. *Britannia, first published in 1586, was one of the most popular and influential books of the period. The work of the Elizabethan antiquarian, William Camden (1551-1623), it was a detailed historical and topographical description of Great Britain. Its patriotic sentiments, in particular, both appealed to and generated the growing sense of nationalism that was coursing through late Tudor / early Stuart society. Between 1607 and 1637, county maps engraved by William Kip and William Hole, and based largely on Saxton's surveys, were added. (Skelton, 6).
