About the Item
Title: Antique 1830 Map of Northern England with Durham, Cumberland, Westmorland, and Northumberland
Description: This 1830 German-language map, titled Britisches Reich – A. Kon: England, focuses on northern England and highlights the counties of Durham, Westmorland, Cumberland, and Northumberland. The map was published in Leipzig by Georg Joachim Goschen as part of the Atlas von Europa nebst den Kolonien, designed for businesspeople, newspaper readers, and owners of the Conversations-Lexicon. It was lithographed by O. Hermann and edited by W. E. A. von Schlieben.
Each county is outlined in hand-applied color, distinguishing political boundaries. Major cities and towns such as Newcastle, Durham, Carlisle, and Lancaster are marked, along with significant geographical features, including 'the coastline along the North Sea (Deutsche Meer) and the Irish Sea (Irische Meer)'. The Scottish border is clearly defined at the top of the map.
This map exemplifies early 19th-century European cartographic precision, reflecting the influence of German publishers in producing detailed maps of the British Isles.

1645 Blaeu Map of Westmorland, Northern England – Hand Colored, Decorative
Located in Langweer, NL
This map, "Westmoria Comitatus; Anglice Westmorland", was created by the esteemed Dutch cartographer Willem Blaeu and was published around 1645 in 'Le Theatre du Monde ou Nouvel Atlas'. It provides a detailed look at Westmorland, a historic county in northern England, based on John Speed’s earlier map. The map features numerous place names, parks, and estates, including Brigster Park, Colnhead Park, Crosbye, and Midleton, along with a detailed depiction of Windermere (spelled Wynandermere) and the surrounding regions.
Additional Features:
- Hand-colored map, with vibrant and detailed colors that bring out the topographical and decorative features.
- Includes intricate cartouches, such as the royal coat of arms, a decorative title cartouche topped with putti (cherubic figures), and six coats of arms (two left blank).
- Depicts the region’s rich landscape, including the rolling hills and mountainous terrain of northern England.
- French text on the verso, indicative of the publication period from 1645-1648, part of Blaeu’s highly sought-after atlases.
- Map shows precise details of small towns, estates, and parks, such as Brigster Park, Colnhead Park, Crosbye, and Wynandermere (now Windermere Lake).
This map would be of particular interest to collectors of English county maps, antique maps of northern England, 17th-century cartography, and the decorative works of Willem Blaeu. Blaeu's maps are renowned for their accuracy, artistic beauty, and historical significance.
