Description
Nederlands: In 1645 bracht Joan Blaeu (1598-1673) met veel succes een atlas van Engeland op de markt. Blaeu baseerde zich daarbij op het werk van zijn Engelse collega John Speed (1552-1629) die in 1611 zijn Theatre of the Empire of Great Britaine had uitgegeven. Bij deze atlas hoorde deze overzichtskaart van het prinsdom Wales. De kaart is langs de rechterzijde prachtig gedecoreerd met verschillende wapenschilden. Joan Blaeu heeft de kaart opgedragen aan koning Charles I.; Opdracht van Joan Blaeu aan Charles I van Engeland.
English: In 1645, Joan Blaeu (1598-1673) successfully published an atlas of England. Blaeu based this atlas on the Theatre of the Empire of Great Britaine published by his English colleague John Speed (1552-1629) in 1611. To this atlas belonged a basic map of the principality Wales. The map has been beautifully decorated on the right side with coats of arms. Joan Blaeu has dedicated the map to king Charles I.
