Blome, Richard; Taylor, Thomas A Mapp of Ye Bishoprick of Durham. c.1715. At the same time as his larger maps were being produced for Britannia Blome had these smaller maps engraved. They were published in 1681. After Blome's death Thomas Taylor took possession of the plates and reworked them for his county atlas. This example has Blome's name crossed out in the upper left corner, and the original dedication is missing from the upper right corner, replaced by a plate number '13'. Saxton, Christopher (scrip.); Kip, William (sculp.) Westmorelandia Comitatus qui olim Spectant ad Brigantas. From Camden's Britannia, [1607] (with Latin text on verso). Early hand-colouring, in frame.
