South Wales 1695-1722

South Wales, an original antique map by R. Morden published in London, 1695-1722-. Copperplate, coloured. Map size 43 x 36 cm, overall mounted size 58.5 x 52 cm.An attractive and popular map of South Wales. Considering the popularity and success of Camden's Britannia, first issued with maps in 1607, it is surprising that it was not until the end of the seventeenth century that a new edition was prepared. Robert Morden (d.1703) was commissioned to engrave a set of county maps for Edmund Gibson's new edition. Morden's first series of maps were rejected as being too small, and these were later published in Morden's New Description and State of England, first issued in 1701, and subsequently re-issued in Cox's Magna Britannia, in the 1720s. Morden finally produced a new set of maps
on a larger scale which were used in Gibson's editions published in 1695, 1722 as here, circa 1730, 1753 and 1772. The maps were based on the most up-to-date surveys where available, although some drew on Saxton and Speed, and were engraved by Sutton Nicholls and John Sturt. The maps are plain and simple, invariably with decorative title surround, and charmingly engraved. Their detail, convenient size, visual attraction and antiquity make them among the most popular of all early county maps. Antique maps from various original publishers are presented on the Stanford
