*Embroidered map. A Map of England and Wales done at Miss PowellÕs Boarding School Plymouth by S. Shepherd, 1788, map of England, Wales, and part of Scotland finely worked in cross stitch on linen, in blue, pink, black, yellow, white, and green silks, the map divided into counties and showing principal towns, top right corner with cross stitch title within satin stitch floral border, toned, some sl. wear to lower corners, 63.5 x 51cm (25 x 20ins), framed and glazed. The V&A holds a similar sampler embroidered by a pupil at Miss PowellÕs Boarding School, by an Elizabeth Hawkins in 1797, and showing Europe. These map samplers commonly have hand-drawn or traced outlines and were prepared by the teacher or governess in most cases. Maps of England and Wales or Europe were two of the most popular choices, but the range of possibilities was wide; a pupil might choose to depict as local an area as the field layout of a nearby estate, or as wide an area as the solar system. More complex maps such as the two hemispheres were usually undertaken on printed grounds, although generally left with blank borders to allow for individual customisation. (1)

*London. Gill (Macdonald), The Wonderground Map of London, pub. The Westminster Press [1924], colour printed map, 745 x 930mm, framed and glazed. This is an example of the slightly smaller edition of GillÕs 1913 map which is assumed to have been published to help the promotion of the 1924 British Empire Exhibition that was held at Wembley between April and October of that year. If you look closely in the top left hand corner you can see a sign saying:- ÔOn To WembleyÕ and an art deco lion. Neither of which appear on the 1913 edition. The map would have been well known and much loved by Londoners and to re-use it to help advertise and promote the exhibition was probably a sound piece of advertising and publicity. The map remains highly stylised and whimsical, and was originally commissioned by The London Underground and was designed to be displayed in tube stations. The intense pictorial content of the map caught the publicÕs imagination and as a result Gill is often credited with creating a resurgence of the genre of decorative map making. Elizabeth Burdon. The Cartographic Impact of Macdonald GillÕs Wonderground Map of 1913Õ. An Article in ÔThe Antiquarian Booksellers of AmericaÕ monthly journal. Not examined out of frame. (1)

Rome, 1573, uncoloured engraved and etched map of ancient Rome on two conjoined sheets, trimmed to neat lines, two small holes to image, margins and central fold strengthened on verso, old fold, 465 x 600mm. This print was published in the Speculum Romanae Magnificentiae (The Mirror of Roman Magnificence) Published and produced by Antonio Salamanca and Antonio Lafreri. The prints of the architecture and views of the city of Rome could be purchased individually or in albums. When Lafreri died, the copper plates were divided beween Claudio and Stefano Duchetti (who took the large majority) and several other smaller publishers. It is the more standardized and uniform production of the Speculum by the Duchetti family which proved the most popular. LafreriÕs name is synonymous with the publication of the magnificent composite atlases produced in the important trading centres of Rome and Venice. Comprising of maps by various cartographers they epitomise the Italian domination of the world of cartography before the emergence of OrteliusÕs Theatrum Orbis Terrarum which was published in Antwerp in 1570 and which marked the beginning of Dutch cartographic supremacy.
