笔记
Rare separately issued map of Scotland.
As stated in the title the map is based upon Robert Gordon’s (1580-1661) map that first appeared in Blaeu’s Atlas of Scotland of 1654. The map has been “improved” by Morden, with the addition of a grid to aid with reference and an alphabetical list of the principal places in Scotland. He has also added a scale bar, the royal-coat-of-arms, and a fabulous title banner surrounded by putti. Morden’s partner in the production of the map was Robert Walton (fl. 1644-1687) one of the most important seventeenth century print dealers.
OCLC only records three institutional examples: the Bodleian Library, the British Library, and the National Library of Scotland. Not in Smail, ‘The Early Maps of Scotland’.
