[MAP] [FRAMED] CAMBRIDGE SHIRE
- Abel Swale Awnsham and John Churchill, 1722
Abel Swale Awnsham and John Churchill, 1722. Map engraved by Sutton Nichols, with central horizontal fold, for Camden's Britannia, with foliate title cartouche in the upper right; attractively hand colored in outline, in green, blue, gold and pink; 16 3/4" x 14 7/8"; left-hand top corner has had some minor "bleed" and appears to have been retouched; nicely matted and framed in silver gilt.~~Camden's Britannia was created by English mapmaker Robert Morden who produced county maps covering England and Wales. This map of Cambridgeshire is particularly attractive with the hand-coloring in outline.~~Note; this map has not been examined out of the frame.
