Sobre este item
London, 1834. Copper engraving, 64 x 72 cm, engraved by John and Charles Walker, original hand-colour with black and white vignette of Bangor Cathedral, light offsetting, blank verso. The Greenwood brothers were land-surveyors from Yorkshire who compiled one of the last independent large-scale county atlases, in the teeth of competition from the Ordnance Survey. The maps are both decorative and detailed but, as Worms reveals in British Map Engravers the project was not a financial success: in 1834 Christopher was imprisoned for debt and the engraved plates soon passed to other hands.
