From "A Complete Atlas, Or Distinct View Of The Known World ..." Bowen's map assures the reader that the map has been "regulated by Astronomical observations". The title cartouche shows Britannia and Old Father Thames at each side of a stone bridge. In the background a British Naval ship is shown blasting-off a broadside.
