Original Antique Map of the Northern Part of Scotland, circa 1640
About the Item
The antique map, titled 'Scotiae pars septentrionalis,' depicts the northern part of Scotland. Crafted by Hondius around 1640, this map is a historical treasure showcasing the geographical details of that period. Alongside the cartographic elements, such as land contours and place names, it features embellishments like illustrations of ships sailing the waters and mythical sea monsters, elements that were commonly used in cartography during that era to denote uncharted or dangerous territories.
This antique map not only serves as a navigational aid but also provides a fascinating glimpse into the artistic and imaginative expressions embedded in historical cartography.
