A Map Of The Lake Ullswater And Its Environs
|
A magnificent, scarce and very large-scale map of the lake and its immediate environs. Published in James Clarke's "Surveys Of The Lakes ...", it gives the depth soundings and shows the lake's six islands. The surrounding fells are showing along with the estates of the gentry. Title cartouche to lower right hand is supported by putti. Many individual buildings are named and depicted. An important historical record from this beautiful area. Old but skilful repairs to tears.
