Description
  • Title: Angliae Descriptio. England, Wales & Scotland. Great Britain. MÜNSTER 1572 map
  • Description: Angliae Descriptio [England, Wales and part of Scotland]. An early map of England and Wales, with part of Scotland and Ireland. A table gives a list of place names in Latin with English translations. The national flags of England and Scotland are shown. The accuracy of rendering of the smaller British islands is erratic - the Isle of Man is oversized, Grenze (Guernsey) is far adrift of a truncated Cotentin peninsula, while Jersey is missing. Anglesey and the Isle of Wight both appear to have phantom companions. Thanet is shown as an island adrift of England. Lundy is missing. The map is orientated towards the East by Münster, Sebastian. Published 1572. Antique 16th century woodcut map. Size 28 x 38 cm | 11.0 x 15.0 inches. Condition: Good; suitable for framing. Please check the scan for any blemishes prior to making your purchase. Please contact us if you would like to arrange to view this map. This is a folding map. There is Latin text and/or images printed on the reverse side.
