Beautifully coloured map of Wales as appearing in John Speed’s “Theatre of the Empire of Great Britain”. This most decorative map of Wales contains 12 plans of the country’s principal towns along with four further insets of important churches. As the verso is blank, this map may have either been issued separately or included in a campaigning atlas during the English Civil War. A strong dark impression, the margins are tight on the top and sides with the plate-mark visible; otherwise an excellent example. 38 cm x 50.5 cm
