Coloured title page from the Roger Rea edition of John Speed’s “Theatre of the Empire of Great Britain”. Although the title page is dated 1650, it comes from the Rea atlas that was not published until ca 1665. The page comprises an architectural façade in which five historical depictions of the peoples of Britain are presented. Other than some nicks to the margins and two ink spots (presumably done during printing), the page is in very good condition. 38 cm x 24 cm
